Tips on drying
–Always observe the maximum recommended loads given in the "Programme chart". Never overload the drum.
Overloading can cause unnecessary wear and tear to the laundry, give a disappointing drying result and cause more creasing.
–Open jackets so that they can dry evenly
–Do not put soaking wet items into the tumble dryer to dry them; spin them thoroughly for at least 30 seconds after washing.
–Use the Automatic plus programme for drying mixed loads of cottons and minimum iron fabrics
–Pure linen should only be machine dried if specified as suitable by the manufacturer on the garment care label, as the surface of the fabric may otherwise become rough.
–Loopknit garments (e.g.
–Minimum iron fabrics tend to crease more, the larger the load. This is also the case for garments made from very fine weave fabrics, such as shirts or blouses. Make sure you select a suitable programme. If in doubt, divide the garments into smaller loads and select Gentle tumble or Gentle smoothing.
–Starched laundry can be dried in the tumble dryer. To achieve the usual finish, double the amount of starch should be used.
–New dark coloured garments should be washed and dried separately from light coloured garments to avoid the danger of colours running and discolouring other garments or even plastic components in the dryer. Dark coloured fibres can also settle on light coloured garments and vice versa.
