Drying advice

IMPORTANT: Do not dry

articles which have

been treated with a dry cleaning fluid or rubber clothes (danger of fire or explosion).

Do not tumble dry:

Woollens, silk, delicate fabrics, nylon stockings, delicate embroidery, fabrics with metallic decorations, garments with PVC or leather trimmings, training shoes, bulky items such as sleeping bags, etc.

Energy saving

Only put into the tumble dryer laundry which has been thoroughly wrung or spin-dried. The drier the laundry the shorter the drying time thus saving electricity.

ALWAYS

●Try to dry the maximum weight of laundry, this will save time and electricity.

●Check that the filter is clean before every drying cycle.

NEVER

●Exceed the maximum weight, this will waste time and electricity.

●Put dripping wet items into the tumble dryer, this may damage the appliance.
