Preparing laundry for drying

Fabric softeners and similar products must be used in accordance with the instructions of the manufacturer of the relevant products.

All laundry must be spun at the highest spin speed that your washing machine allows for the laundry type.

Laundry may be tangled after washing.

Separate your laundry before placing them into your dryer.

Sort your laundry according to their types and thicknesses. Dry the same type of laundry together. E.g.: fine kitchen towels and table cloths dry faster than the thick bath towels.
