Additional Tips for Smart Use
Woollens
Dry woollens on “wool’’ cycle. Be sure to
follow fabric care label symbols, first. Wool
is not completely dried from the program so
don't repeat drying. Pull woollens to their
original shape and dry them flat.
Woven and Loopknit Materials
Some woven and loopknit materials may
shrink, depending on quality.
Permanent Press and Synthetics
Do not overload your dryer. Take out
permanent press items as soon as the dryer
stops to reduce creases.
Baby Clothes and Night Gowns
Always check the manufacturer’s
instructions.
Rubber and Plastics
Do not dry any items made from or
containing rubber or plastics such as:
a) Aprons, Bibs and Chair Covers
b) Curtains and Table Clothes
c) Bathmats
Fibreglass
Do not dry fibreglass articles in your dryer.
Glass particles left in the dryer could be
picked up by your clothes the next time you
use the dryer and irritate your skin.
Fabric Care Labels
Clothes have their own wash care labels, so
drying according to the wash care label is
recommended.
Not only that, the laundry must be sorted
according to size and fabric type.
For the best drying performance and most
efficient energy usage, do not overload the
dryer.
Below are fabric care labels.
