Moisture sensors

The dryer is equipped with stainless steel moisture sensors. Moisture sensors measure

after prolonged use.

Do not tumble-dry the following fabrics for example:
– Airtight fabrics (e.g. rubber-coated fabrics).
– Delicate materials (silk, curtains made from synthetic material) 

a

 they may crease.

– Laundry contaminated with oil.

Drying tips

– To ensure a consistent result, sort the laundry by fabric type and drying programme.
– Always dry very small items (e.g. baby socks) together with larger items (e.g. hand towels).
– Close zips, hooks and eyelets, and button up covers. Tie cloth belts, bands, etc. together.
– Do not over-dry easy-care laundry 

a

 risk of creasing!

Allow laundry to finish drying in the air.

– Do not iron laundry immediately after drying, fold items up and leave for a while 

a

the remaining moisture will then be distributed evenly.

– Knitted fabrics (e.g. T-shirts, jerseys) often shrink during their first drying.

a

 Do not use the 

Very Dry

 programme.

– Starched laundry is not always suitable for dryers 

a

 starch leaves behind a coating that 

adversely affects the drying operation.

– Use the correct dosage of fabric softener as per the manufacturer's instructions when 

washing the laundry to be dried.

– Use the timer programme for small loads 

a

 this improves the drying result.

Environmental protection/energy-saving tips

– Before drying, spin the laundry thoroughly in the washing machine 

a

 the higher the spin 

speed, the shorter the drying time will be (consumes less energy), also spin easy-care 
laundry.

– Use the maximum recommended capacity, but do not exceed it

a

Programme overview, page 7

.

– Make sure the room is well ventilated during drying.
– Clean the fluff filter after every drying operation

– Do not obstruct or seal up the air inlet.
