Hot washing Charlie Banana? Survived a 60 degree wash?

I have a couple of charlie banana pocket nappies (oops, just accidently bought them!), and then realised that they say wash at a maximum of 40 degrees, not 60, and don't use bleach etc...

How am I supposed to properly clean them? I normally wash nappies at 40 but like to do a 60 degree wash every month or couple of weeks to kill off bacteria.

Has anyone successfully washed them at 60?

Hi there I don't use charlie bananas (never heard of them Blush) I used Flips, and I wash at 60. But have you thought of using Milton Antibacterial Fabric wash instead? It claims to sterilise your wash even when washing at low temps. I use it and have been pretty pleased with it.

Seriously I wouldn't stress about it, I've had charlie bananas and washed at 60 and it was fine. The occasional wash won't kill them but it's best not to do it all the time. I do the occasional 60 for the same reason.
