Do not place in the appliance any wet laundry which is not specified on the care label as being suitable for tumble-drying.

This appliance can be used for all wet laundry items which are labelled as suitable for tumble-drying.

Do not dry new, coloured textiles together with light-coloured laundry items. Textile colours may bleed.

Do not dry cotton jersey and knitwear with the EXTRA programme. Items may shrink!

Wool and wool-like textiles can be dried using the WOOL RACK DROOGREK WOL programme. Before the drying cycle spin the woollen textiles as well as possible (max. 1200 rpm). Only dry woollen textiles together which are similar or the same with repect to material, colour and weight. Please dry heavy laundry items made of wool separately.

Preparing laundry

To avoid laundry becoming tangled: close zips, button up duvet covers and tie loose ties or ribbons (e.g. of aprons).

Empty pockets. Remove metal items (paper clips, safety pins, etc).

Turn items with double-layered fabrics inside out (e.g. with cotton-lined anoraks, the cotton layer should be outermost). These fabrics will then dry better.
