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®.

Wool Programme

This is a programme for tumble dryer safe garments marked with the symbol .

It can be used for load sizes up to 1kg (approximately 3 sweaters).

We recommend that garments are turned inside out before drying.

This programme will take about 60 minutes, but may take longer depending 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 wear, but on some heavier garments the edges may

be slightly damp. Allow these to dry naturally as over-drying could damage garments.

!Unlike other materials, the mechanism of wool shrinkage is irreversible; i.e. it will not stretch back to original size and shape.

!This programme is not suitable for Acrylic garments.

The wool drying cycle of this tumble dryer has been approved by The Woolmark Company for the drying of Woolmark garments labelled as machine wash and tumble dry, provided that the garments are dried according to instructions on the garment label and those issued by the manufacturer of this tumble dryer (M0616).

This is the first and only wool drying cycle approved by The Woolmark Company.
