●Always load well spun laundry. The higher the spin speed the lower the electricity consumption and the shorter the drying time.

●DO NOT load dripping wet laundry into the dryer. Roll the article in a towel or spin to remove excess water.

●Close poppers and zips and fasten any buttons.

●Sort the laundry. Separate synthetics from cotton/linens, and dry separately.

●Remove the laundry immediately after the programme has finished.

●Use a fabric conditioning sheet to reduce static. We recommend the sheet is pinned to an article of laundry (using a safety pin).

●Mix the load i.e. large and small articles.

●When drying large items such as sheets, we recommend you periodically stop the dryer to redistribute the load.

DO NOT use the tumble dryer to dry the following:

●Articles contaminated with inflammable substances e.g. petrol, cleaning solvents, cooking oil, fats or hair lacquer.

●Woollen and synthetic/wool mixtures unless the item is labelled as suitable for tumble drying.

●Very delicate articles such as silk.

●Very large and bulky items such as duvets or sleeping bags.
