Hygiene
In the hygiene programmes, items will be dried with a temperature that is con-
stant over an extended period (longer temperature holding time). This kills off
micro-organisms such as germs or dust mites and reduces allergens in the
laundry.
If a hygiene programme is cancelled early, micro-organisms will not be killed.
Do not cancel this programme.
