Programme overview
4.1
Programme sequence for the automatic programmes
The drying programme has 3 phases:
Drying
The washing is tumble dried until it reaches the set level of dryness. The drying pro-
gramme is monitored by a moisture sensor. As soon as the required level of dryness is
reached, the «Cooling down/Airing» phase starts.
Cooling down/Final airing
The laundry is cooled down to a temperature at which creasing is minimized. The dura-
tion of this phase depends on the temperature of the laundry. «Crease guard» starts if
the appliance is not unloaded when this phase ends.
Crease guard
The dried washing is moved at frequent intervals to prevent creasing.
If the additional «Ultra care» function has been selected, «Crease guard» runs 90
minutes; with all other programmes it runs 30 minutes. «Crease guard» can be stopped
at any time by opening the appliance door or by pressing the
button.
