Rear and Door-vented auto-timer dryers
Airing / Cool down
When the dryer has finished drying it will automatically go into a 12 minute airing or cool down
cycle. During airing the drum tumbles and cool air is blown through the clothes. This reduces
creasing if the clothes are left in the dryer.
This phase of the drying cycle can be used to air clothes.
Drying times
With your new dryer it may take a few trials before you can accurately predict the correct drying
time for each individual load.
As a guide we have included some examples of loads and drying times. These times are
approximate only, based on the garments being spun at the maximum spin speed suitable for
the wash load.

For the Electronic auto-sense dryer we recommend using the 1 hour manual cycle, and the low
temperature setting (fully featured models).
