SORTING AND LOADING
Drying times
●
●
Drying very small loads is inefficient. Try to dry medium to large loads.
●
●
Heavier items (towels, T-shirts, flannelette sheets) will take longer to dry than light items
(synthetics and polyester cotton sheets and shirts).
●
●
Spin clothes at the highest spin speed suitable for the load type. The more water you
remove in the wash, the less drying time required.
●
●
Care labels on garments provide valuable information about the fabric type and how
the garment should be dried. Always follow the advice on the garment labels. Only dry
items in this dryer that have a care label stating tumble drying is suitable.
●
●
Separate coloured items from white/light items where possible, especially when new.
Colour run may be an issue, especially if you intend to delay the start of the drying cycle.
Lint
Some items are lint givers, while others are lint collectors. Always dry lint givers and
collectors separately.
LINT GIVERS
LINT COLLECTORS
Towels
Synthetics eg polar fleece
Flannelette sheets
Corduroy
Nappies
Polyester cottons
Delicate or easily damaged items (eg woollen or silk garments, nylon stockings, fine
fabrics, delicate embroidered fabrics, garments with metal accessories, sleeping bags
and other down items) should be dried separately, using the delicate cycle or the rack
dry cycle (if you do not want them tumbled).
Drying rack
There are many items that would benefit from being
dried on a drying rack. For example items like sport
shoes, soft toys, hats and woollen items that may be
damaged if they are tumbled.
A drying rack is installed in your dryer when it leaves
the factory. To remove it, tilt the top of the rack
towards you to detach the legs from the slots in the
lint filter, and gently remove from the drum.
When you are using the drying rack you must select
the ‘Rack Dry’ cycle.
