Drying tips

–Observe the maximum loads, see the "Program guide".

Overloading the dryer will result in poor drying and wrinkling.

–Do not place dripping wet items in the dryer. Spin the laundry after the wash for at least 30 seconds.

–Dry delicate fabrics (with the fabric care symbol ￿) with the "Low temperature" option.

–Open jackets to allow even drying.

–Starched laundry can be dried in the tumble dryer. The amount of starch should be doubled during the wash.

–Wash new, colored items before drying for the first time and do not dry with light-colored items. These fabrics can "bleed" (also onto plastic parts of the dryer). Colored lint may also get on the light colored items.

–Wool and wool blends tend to felt and shrink. Dry wool and wool blends in the "Woollen handcare" program.

–The fine fabric of down filled items tend to shrink. Dry these items in the "Smoothing" program.

–Dry pure linen items only if it is recommended on the fabric care label. The surface of the fabric may become "rough". Dry these items in the "Smoothing" program.

–Knitted fabrics (e.g. T-Shirts and underwear) tend to shrink when washed and dried for the first time. Do not overdry these fabrics.

–Permanent press and delicate fabrics tend to crease more the bigger the load size.

For better drying results reduce the load size or select the "Shirts" program.
