IMPORTANT INFORMATION: A 10 minute ‘Cool Tumble’ phase at the end of each drying cycle allows fabrics to gently cool down, minimising creasing.

All fabrics contain a little natural moisture even when ‘dry’, this should not be lost if the clothes are to remain soft and fluffy. If clothes are subjected to extreme drying they tend to wrinkle, and consequently need more ironing than usual. As clothes feel damper when warm, allow for this when removing items before the ‘Cool Tumble’ phase is complete.

DRYING WEIGHT LOADS

Two examples of

Removal of fluff

After you have dried a particularly ‘fluffy’ load or if you have used the appliance as a dryer only, you MUST, after the dry load has been removed, set your appliance to rinse and spin. This removes the fluff out of the pipes.

Note: This appliance does not have a filter.

Items Not Suitable for Tumble Drying

Garments with the ITCL code -

DO NOT TUMBLE DRY

Woollens.

Large bulky items eg. quilts, bedspreads pillows etc... expand when dry, preventing air flow through the appliance.

Items containing plastic film, foam rubber or rubber like materials eg. pillows, cushions, PVC rainwear or inflammable articles which contain inflammable substances eg. towels contaminated with hair lacquer.

Fibreglass (eg. some types of curtains).

Items which have been dry cleaned.

Drying Tips

Reduce the drying time of handwashed laundry by selecting a suitable spin only option from programme ‘G’ (see page 13) before drying.

When drying bedspreads, single blankets etc... we recommend that you remove, shake and reload during the cycle to ensure faster and more even drying.

Starched articles should be dried together to avoid distribution of starch onto non-starched items.

Be careful not to over dry.
