Useful Hints
Avoid drying large laundry loads, as this causes
garments to easily crease and dry unevenly E_
maximum drying load should not exceed lxNbs
dry-weighlF
Drying very delicate laundry items such as
woolens and silk garments is not recommended
as they may shrink or lose their shape
Synthetic curtains, fabrics with metal threads,
nylon stockings, as well as lingerie with prevailing
foam rubber components or rubber-like materials,
shoutd be dried at a low temperature setting
Edelicate laundry programs or time setting
programsE Place delicate fabrics in a laundry
sack, when drying together with other laundry
When drying is finished, immediately remove all
laundry from the dryer to avoid excessive
creasing
When drying laundry in the dryer, there is no
need to add conditioners Conditioners are added
only when rinsing synthetics to neutralize static
electricity
When buying clothes, especially underwear, do
not forget that they may shrink during washing as
well as during drying
Clothes marked with a"no tumble dry" label, are
not suitable for tumble drying
Energy consumption when drying laundry is
essentially increased if the spin speed of your
washing machine is set to operate lower than
U00 r p m
