3. When drying is completed

The machine stops automatically, the mains-on light goes out.

If the laundry is still too damp, select a further brief drying time, bearing in mind that during the last 10 minutes the dryer carries out the cooling and anti-crease treatment phase.

When the programme has finished you are advised to unplug the appliance.

Clean the filter after every drying programme. A clean filter ensures correct functioning of the appliance.

●Sort laundry according to type and degree of drying required.

●Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and saves energy.

●Avoid drying dark clothes with light coloured fluffy items such as towels as they could attract the fluff.

●Remove the laundry when the dryer has finished drying.

●To avoid a static charge when drying is completed, use either a fabric softener when you are washing the laundry or a fabric conditioner specifically for tumble dryers.

Laundry Shrinkage

Certain fabrics such as woollens and silks are generally not suitable for tumble drying. Due to the structure of some woollen garments which are recommended for tumble drying, shrinking could still occur, but once the garment is worn again, it should regain its shape.

Starched Laundry

Starched laundry can also be dried in the tumble dryer. Make sure that the time selected is for iron dry. After completion of the programme wipe out the drum with a damp cloth and dry to remove any traces of starch.
