How to dry correctly
Brief instructions
The headings numbered (, , ...) show the operating sequence and can be used as a brief guide to using your dryer.
Sort the laundry
To ensure an even drying result separate out the washed laundry and sort it according to:
. . . the drying level required
. . . the type of fibre or weave
. . . size
. . . the moisture content after spinning.
Make sure that objects e.g. detergent dispensing balls have been removed from the laundry. They could melt, and cause damage to the dryer or the laundry.
–Check seams and stitching to ensure that padding and linings are intact.
–Fasten duvet covers and pillow cases to prevent small items from being trapped inside them.
–Fasten hooks and eyes etc.
–Tie fabric belts and apron strings.
–Sew in or remove underwiring from bras.
Turn on the tumble dryer
Switch the dryer on by pressing the button in.
The tumble dryer may be switched on after loading, saving energy as the light will not come on.
Load the tumble dryer
Press the Door button to open the door.
Load the laundry loosely into the drum.
Do not overload the drum. See the "Programme chart" for recommended loads for each programme.
Overloading can cause unnecessary wear and tear to the laundry and give a disappointing drying result.
Before closing the door make sure the fluff filter is correctly positioned.
Check the laundry is right inside the drum so that it cannot get trapped or damaged when the door is shut.
Shut the door either with a gentle swing, or lean against it and push it shut.
