Sorting your laundry

●Check symbols on clothing labels to make sure that the articles can be tumble dried.

●Sort laundry by fabric type.

●Empty pockets and check buttons.

●Close zippers and hooks and tie loose belts and strings.

●Wring out each item in order to eliminate as much excess water as possible.

!Do not load dripping wet clothes into the dryer.

Maximum load size

Do not load more than maximum capacity. These numbers refer to dry weight: Natural fibres: 7kg max (15lb)

Synthetic fibres: 3kg max (6.6lb)

At the end of a drying cycle, cottons could still be damp if you grouped cottons and synthetics together. If this happens simply give them an additional short period of drying.

●Note: The last 10 minutes of any time set is the Cool Tumble, so allow for this when setting the time, as this period will not dry your laundry.

Wash Care Labels

Tumble dry at high heat setting

Tumble dry at low heat setting

●Items with the ITCL Code (see Special clothing items). These can be cleaned with special

at-home dry cleaning products. Follow instructions carefully.
