Special Programmes
Easy Iron Programme
Easy Iron is a short 10 minute programme (8 minutes of heat followed by a 2 minutes cool tumble period) which fluffs the
fibres of clothing that has been left in the same position/location for an extended period of time. The cycle relaxes the fibres
and makes them easier to iron and fold.
Easy Iron is not a drying programme and should not be used for wet articles of clothing.
For best results:
1. Do not load more than maximum capacity. These numbers refer to dry weight:
Fabric:
Max
Cotton and Cotton mix
2.5 kg
Synthetics
2
Denim
2
2. Unload the dryer immediately after the end of the drying cycle, hang, fold or iron the articles and put them away in the
closet. Should this not be possible, repeat the cycle.
The Easy Iron effect varies from one fabric to the next. It works very well on traditional fabrics like Cotton or Cotton mix, and
less well on acrylic fibres and on materials such as Tencel.®
Wool Programme
This is a programme for tumble dryer safe garments marked with the symbol .
It can be used for load sizes up to 1 kg (approximately 3 sweaters).
We recommend that garments are turned inside out before drying.
This programme will take about 60 minutes, but may take longer depending on the size and density of the load and the
spin speed used in your washer.
Loads dried using this programme are usually ready to wear, but on some heavier garments the edges may be slightly
damp. Allow these to dry naturally as over-drying could damage garments.
Unlike other materials, the mechanism of wool shrinkage is irreversible; i.e. it will not stretch back to original size and shape.
This program is not suitable for Acrylic garments.
Jeans
This is a programme for Jeans made from Denim Cotton. Before drying your Jeans turn the front pockets inside out.
It can be used for load sizes up to 3 kg (approximately 4 pairs).
It can also be used on other garments made from same material such as jackets.
This programme will take about 85 minutes, but may take longer depending on the size of the load and the spin speed
used in your washer.
Loads dried using this programme are usually ready to wear; the edges or seams may be slightly damp. If this is found try
turning the jeans inside out and running the programme again for a short period.
Use this cycle only for a 100% cotton load, do not mix dark and light coloured items. Do not use this cycle for garments
with embroidery and accessories (pins,...), turn the pockets insideout
We do not recommend that you use this programme if your jeans have elastic waste bands or embroidery.
During the drying programme, you can check on your
laundry and take out the items that are dry while the others
continue drying. When you close the door again, press
START in order to resume drying.
11. During the last few minutes of Drying Programmes
before the programme is completed, the final COOL
TUMBLE phase
is entered (fabrics are cooled), this
phase should always be allowed to complete.
12. The buzzer (if option selected) will warn you when the
programme is complete and the display shows
END
.
Open the door, take your laundry out, clean the filter and
replace it. Empty the water container and replace it
(see
Maintenance).
If the Post care
option has been selected and you do
not take the clothes out immediately the clothes will tumble
occasionally for 10 hours or until you open the door.
13. Switch dryer off using the On/Off button.
Standby mode
This tumble dryer, in compliance with new energy saving
regulations, is fitted with an automatic standby system
which is enabled after about 30 minutes if no activity is
