“dryer-proof” or which has the following
care symbols:
■

■
Delicates (silk, synthetic curtains).
■
Textiles which contain foam rubber
or similar materials.
■
Textiles which were treated with
flammable liquids, e.g. with stain
remover, petroleum ether, thinners.
Risk of explosion!
■
Textiles which still contain hairspray
or similar substances.
Notes
■
Before drying, hand-washed textiles
must be spun at the appropriate spin
speed.
■
Before drying, spin at the optimum
speed. A spin speed of more than
1000 rpm is recommended for
cotton, more than 800 rpm for easy-
care textiles.
■
Do not iron washing immediately
after drying. It is recommended to
roll the washing up first to distribute
residual moisture evenly.
■
To ensure a good drying
performance, quilts, terry cloths and
other large textiles should be dried
separately. Do not dry more than 5
terry cloths (or 4 kg).
■
Do not exceed the maximum load.
