For best results:

●We recommend t at garments are turned inside out before drying.
●T is programme will take about 60 minutes, but may take longer depending on t e size and density of t e load
and t e spin speed used in your was er.
●Loads dried using t is programme are usually ready to wear, but on some eavier garments t e edges may
be slig tly damp. Allow t ese to dry naturally as over-drying could damage garments.
!Unlike ot er materials, t e mec anism of wool s rinkage is irreversible; i.e. it will not stretc back to original

Special clothing items
Blankets and Bedspreads: acrylic items (Acilan,
Courtelle, Orion, Dralon) must be dried wit special
care on LOW eat setting. Avoid drying for a long
period of time.
Pleated or creased garments: read t e manufacturer’s
drying instructions on t e garment.
Starched articles: do not dry t ese wit non-
starc ed items. Make sure t at as muc of t e
starc solution is removed from t e load as possible
before placing it in t e dryer. Do not over-dry: t e
starc will become powdery and leave your clot ing
limp, w ic defeats t e purpose of starc .
Drying times
Times are approximate and can vary depending upon:
●Amount of water retained in clot es after spin
cycle: towels and delicates retain a lot of water.
●Fabrics: items t at are t e same type of fabric but
different textures and t icknesses may not ave
t e same drying time.
●Quantity of laundry: single items or small loads
may take longer to dry.
●Dryness: If you are going to iron some of your
clot es, t ey can be taken out w ile still a bit
damp. Ot ers can be left longer if you need t em
to be completely dry.
●Heat setting.
●Room temperature: if t e room w ere t e dryer is
located is cold, it will take longer for t e dryer to
dry your clot es.
●Bulk: some bulky items can be tumble dried wit
care. We suggest t at you remove t ese items
several times, s ake t em out, and return t em to
t e dryer until finis ed.
!Do not over-dry your clot es.
All fabrics contain a little natural moisture, w ic
keeps t em soft and fluffy.
