22electrolux washing hints and drying hints

Preparing the drying cycle

As a dryer, the machine works on the condensation principle.

Therefore, the water tap must be open and the drain hose must drain water into a sink or into the drain pipe, even during the drying cycle. Attention!

Before starting the drying programme, reduce the loads of washed laundry, in order to obtain good performances.

Laundry not suitable for drying

•Particularly delicate items such as synthetic curtains, woollen and silk, gar- ments with metal inserts, nylon stoc- kings, bulky garments such as anoraks, bedcovers, quilts, sleeping bags and duvets must not be machine dried.

•Avoid drying dark clothes with light coloured fluffy items such as towels as these can attract the fluff.

•Remove the laundry when the appliance has finished drying.

•To avoid a static charge when drying is completed, use either a fabric softe- ner when you are washing the laundry or a fabric conditioner specifically for tumble dryers.

•Garments padded with foam-rubber or materials similar to foam-rubber must not be machine dried; they represent a fire hazard.

•Also, fabrics containing residues of setting lotions or hair sprays, nail sol- vents or similar solutions must not be machine dried in order to avoid the for- mation of harmful vapours.
