Using Your Dryer
4. Selecting a Cycle
Your dryer has a number of
FABRIC CARE CYCLES
that can be used to dry different types of
garments:
Select an automatic or timed cycle. See the below Cycle Descriptions.
Select a drying cycle that matches the type of load you are drying. Different fabrics have different
drying requirements, so it is important to choose the cycle that best describes the load. If your
load contains mainly delicate items it is best you select the
KNITS DELICATES
cycle.
If you are unsure of the temperature to select for a load, it’s best to select a lower heat rather than
a higher heat, e.g. the
KNITS DELICATES
or
PERMANENT PRESS
cycle instead of the
COTTON
REGULAR
cycle.
FLUFF
– For items requiring drying without heat. Perfect for airing clothes or to freshen up
garments that have been packed in a suitcase or drawer.
COTTON REGULAR
– For drying general cottons such as sheets, sweats and knits. This cycle uses
a high heat to dry clothes quickly. Suitable for garments labelled “tumble dry”.
PERMANENT PRESS
– For drying lightweight fabrics. A medium heat is used to reduce wrinkles.
Ideal for lightweight cottons, casuals and items labelled “tumble dry with a medium heat”. This
cycle automatically selects the
DEWRINKLE
option to reduce wrinkles.
KNITS DELICATES
– For heat sensitive items, this cycle uses a low heat. Use this setting when
care labels recommend low heat settings or for garments with a synthetic fiber content, where
overheating could cause damage to fibers.
Always follow manufacturer’s care label instructions when drying.
Extra Care
Minimizes the likelihood of wrinkles forming in clothes if you are not able to
unload the dryer straight away.
