Drying times
Drying times are approximate and may vary depending on the following:
• Amount of water retained by items after the spin cycle: towels and delicate items retain a lot of water.
• Fabrics: items of the same fabric, but with different texture and thickness may have different drying times.
• Amount of laundry: single items and small loads may take longer to dry.
• Drying: if items are to be ironed, they can be removed from the dryer while still slightly damp. Items that require complete
drying can be left longer.
• Heat setting.
• Temperature of the room: the lower the temperature of the room, the longer it will take for the dryer to dry clothing.
• Bulk: certain bulky items require special care during the drying process. We suggest removing these items and replacing them
in the dryer once they have been shaken out: repeat this procedure several times during the course of the drying cycle.
! Do not over-dry items.
All fabrics contain natural dampness which helps to keep them soft and fl uffy.
The drying times provided refer to the automatic Cupboard dry programmes.
The Timed drying settings are also indicated to enable you to select the most suitable timed option.
The weight refers to dry items.
