Drying hints
• Make sure that no metal objects are left in the laundry (e.g. hair clips, safety pins, pins)
•
Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners, hooks and poppers. Tie any belts or long tapes.
• Close zips, button up duvet covers und tie loose ties or ribbons (e.g. of aprons).
• Turn items with double-layered fabrics inside out (e.g. with cottonlined anoraks, the cotton layer
should be outermost). These Fabrics will then dry better.
