Start and Programmes

Silk

This is a programme for drying your delicate silk.

It can be used for load sizes up to 0.5kg.

The duration of this programme will depend on the size and density of the load and the spin speed used in your washer.

Loads dried using this programme are usually ready to use, but on some heavier garments the edges may be slightly damp. If this is the case, remove the load and open them out and then run the programme again for a short period.

Cuddly Toy Programme

With this programme you can remove dust easier and wash the cuddly toys more often because the drying time is very much reduced compared to drying in the open air. It is a delicate drying cycle that dries at low temperature and with soft mechanical action to maintain at best the original look and shine of the fur.

Note: For allergy protection, just freeze cuddly toys for 24 hours then wash and dry them. Repeat every 6 weeks. Before drying remove accessories such as clothes, collars or sound boxes and protect plastic eyes with masking tape after drying them with a cloth.

The programme time will vary dependant on the exact make up of the load.

The maximum load should not exceed 2.5kg and no individual item should be greater than 600g.

Heat & Enjoy

This programme helps to heat towels & bathrobes for a warm sensation after a bath or shower. It is also useful for warming clothes before dressing during winter. The cycle heats clothes to 37°C (Body Temperature) and runs at this temperature for a maximum of 4 hours or until you stop the cycle by opening the door.

Maximum load 3kg.

Easy Iron Programme

‘Easy Iron’ is a short 10 minute programme (8 minutes of heat followed by a 2 minute cool tumble period) which fluffs the fibres of clothing that have been left in the same position/location for an extended period of time. The cycle relaxes the fibres and makes them easier to iron and fold.

!‘Easy Iron’ is not a drying programme and should not be used for wet articles of clothing.

For best results: 1. Do not load more than the maximum capacity. These numbers refer to the dry weight:

Fabric

Maximum load

Cotton and Cotton mixtures

2.5kg

Synthetics

2kg

Denim

2kg

2.Unload the dryer immediately after the end of the programme, hang, fold or iron the articles and put them away in the closet. Should this not be possible repeat the programme.

The ‘Easy Iron’ effect varies from one fabric to the next. It works well on traditional fabrics like Cotton or Cotton mix, and less well on acrylic fibres and on materials such as Tencel®.

Refresh

!‘Refresh’ is not a drying programme and should not be used for wet articles of clothing.

It can be used on any load size but is more effective on smaller loads.

Do not overload your dryer (see Laundry).

This is a 20 minute programme that airs your clothes with cool air. Also use to cool warm clothes.

TCEl 87B Experience specifications

The Hotpoint TCEl 87B is a versatile and efficient tumble dryer designed to meet the needs of modern households. With its sleek design and advanced technology, this appliance stands out in terms of performance and user-friendly features.

One of the main characteristics of the TCEl 87B is its capacity. With an 8 kg drum, it is ideally suited for families, allowing for larger loads of laundry to be dried at once. This not only saves time but also energy, making it a practical choice for busy households. The appliance is designed to handle various fabric types, ensuring that clothes come out fresh, soft, and well-maintained every time.

The Hotpoint TCEl 87B features advanced sensor drying technology, which is one of its most notable attributes. This technology uses moisture sensors to automatically detect the drying levels of clothes. As a result, it adjusts the drying time accordingly, preventing over-drying and helping to preserve the quality of fabrics. Users can select from various drying programs tailored to different materials, including delicate items, jeans, and sportswear, providing flexibility to accommodate various laundry types.

In addition to its drying programs, the TCEl 87B is designed with energy efficiency in mind. It boasts a B energy rating, indicating that it operates with reduced energy consumption compared to traditional dryers. This efficiency not only contributes to lower utility bills but is also a step towards a more sustainable lifestyle, making it an environmentally friendly option for consumers.

Another significant feature of this model is its anti-tangle technology. This innovative feature minimizes the tangling of clothes during the drying cycle, ensuring that laundry comes out less wrinkled. As a result, less time is needed for ironing, further enhancing user convenience.

The appliance also includes a reverse action drum, which alternates the direction of the drum's rotation. This helps to further prevent tangling and enhances the drying process by allowing air to circulate more freely around the fabrics.

Overall, the Hotpoint TCEl 87B combines practicality, efficiency, and advanced technology to offer a reliable drying solution for contemporary homes. With its thoughtful features and user-friendly design, it enhances the everyday laundry experience and meets the demands of modern living.
