Start and Programmes

Wool Programme

This is a programme for tumble dryer safe garments marked with the symbol       .

It can be used for load sizes up to 1kg (approximately 3 sweaters).

We recommend that garments are turned inside out before drying.

The duration of this programme will depend 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 programme is not suitable for Acrylic garments.
