Remove the items from the Dryer as
soon as they reach ironing
dampness. If they are over-dried, the
starch will powder, leaving the fabric
limp – which rather defeats the
purpose of the exercise!
Fabric conditioner
To make sure all your tumble dried
clothes come out really fresh and soft
we recommend you use a fabric
conditioner, such as Comfort, in the
final rinse of your wash. A fabric
conditioner restores bounce and
softness to everything when it comes
out of the Dryer. Using a fabric
conditioner also helps eliminate static
cling, which can be so irritating and
uncomfortable, and thus makes
ironing easier.
WARNING: ON NO ACCOUNT
SHOULD LIQUID FABRIC
CONDITIONER BE ADDED TO
THE DRYER ITSELF.
Items requiring special attention (cont'd)
Blankets and Bedspreads
The drying requirements for blankets
and bedspreads will, of course, vary
tremendously according to size and
weight. Your Dryer will do a splendid
job, often restoring the soft, fluffy feel
they had when new. Some, however
are, simply too big. If you have
difficulty getting them into the Dryer,
the machine will have difficulty in
drying them properly. During the
drying period remove blankets and
other large items, shake and reload.
This will ensure more even drying.
Blankets made from acrylic fibres
(eg, Acrilan, Courtelle, Orlon and
Dralon) must be dried with special
care. Overdrying should be avoided
to ensure heat creasing does not
occur.
It will help if you test them
occasionally during the programme
to see how they are coming along.
Permanently pleated or creased
garments
Your Dryer will cope with such
clothes very well, but you should
always read the manufacturer’s
drying instructions attached to the
garment before you begin.
Starched articles
Starched articles should be dried
together in the same load, to avoid
the distribution of starch to non-
starched items.
You should use a slightly heavier
starch solution than you would when
drying the items on the washing line.
Make sure that as much of the
solution is removed from the load as
possible before placing it in the
Dryer.
