CAUTION
•
Be careful! The drum inside may still be hot.
•
The appliance must not be used for purposes
other than those for which it was designed.
NOTE
•
The final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without
heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that laundry is left
at a temperature that ensures the laundry will not be
damaged.
•
A high atmospheric temperature and a small room
may both increase drying time as well as energy
consumption.
Sorting Laundry
Clothes have their own wash care labels, so drying
according to the wash care label is recommended.

energy usage, do not overload the appliance.

Pull woollens to their original shape and dry them flat.

plastics such as:
–
Aprons, Bibs and Chair Covers
