How to dry correctly

Brief instructions

The headings numbered (, , ...) show the operating sequence and can be used as a brief guide to using your dryer.

Sort the laundry

To ensure an even drying result sort laundry according to:

. . . the drying level required

. . . the type of fibre or weave

. . . size

. . . the moisture content after spinning.

Make sure that objects e.g. detergent dispensing balls have been removed from the laundry.

They could melt, and cause damage to the dryer or the laundry.

Check seams and stitching to ensure that padding and linings are intact.

Fasten duvet covers, pillow cases etc. to prevent small items from being rolled up inside them.

Close any zips, fasten hooks and eyes etc before washing.

Fasten any loose belts and ties

Underwiring and collar stiffeners: Any loose wiring in bras, shirt collar stiffeners, etc. should be removed or sewn in.

Turn on the tumble dryer

The tumble dryer may be switched on after loading, saving energy as the light will not come on.

Switch the dryer on by pressing the On/Off button in.

Load the tumble dryer

Press the Door button to open the door.

Unfold the laundry and load loosely into the drum.

Do not overload the drum. See the "Programme chart" for recommended loads for each programme. Overloading can cause unnecessary wear and tear to the laundry and give a disappointing drying result.

Before closing the door make sure the fluff filter is correctly positioned in the door.

Check the laundry is right inside the drum so that it cannot get trapped or damaged when the door is shut.

Shut the door either with a gentle swing, or lean against it and push it shut.
