Spin speed

 

ø

For the spin class, set the spin speed at which the laundry has been spun in the 

washing machine. This permits the expected drying time to be indicated more accu-

rpm

Adjust dryness level

 

ù

If your laundry is too damp after drying, you can fine tune the dryness levels, e.g. Cup-

board Dry, using the drying degree button. The dryness level can be increased in 

three stages, from +1 to +3 , by adjusting the drying degree.
Once you have adjusted the drying degree, this setting will be retained even after the 

dryer has been switched off.

Low Heat

 

^

Low temperature for delicate fabrics, e.g. polyacrylic and elastane. May increase the 

length of the programme.
