Items made of synthetic
fibres are charged with
static electricity after
drying. Synthetic fibres tend to
attract static charge. Static charge can be
reduced by adding a
fabric conditioner to the
final rinse in the washing
programme or a fabric
conditioner sheet to the
load when drying.
There is a build-up of
fluff. Fluff is principally the
result of friction when
garments are being worn
and washed. Machine
drying hardly causes any
fluff to form and has been
established by research
institutes to have no
appreciable effect on the
lifetime of fabric. Fluff is collected by the
fluff filters and can be
easily removed (see
"Cleaning and Care").
Feather filled pillows
smell after drying. Feathers are a natural
product and this is quite
normal. The smell will dissipate
after sufficient airing.
