If your laundry load to be washed and dried is much greater than the maximum stated load (see adjacent table), perform the wash cycle, and when the cycle is complete, divide the garments into groups and put some of them back in the drum. At this point, follow the instructions provided for a "Drying only" cycle. Repeat this

procedure for the remainder of the load.

 

N.B: when the drying is complete there is a cooling period, even though the DRYING knob is in the

position.

Turn the WASH CYCLE knob to one of the drying settings (11-12-13) according to the type of fabric, then select the desired drying duration using the DRYING knob.
