PREPARATION
Check care labels inside the garments
.
CARE LABELS YOU MAY FIND ON YOUR FABRICS
Do not tumble dry woollen or wool mixture articles unless the article is labelled as being suitable .This should
avoid shrinkage.
Place delicate articles, e.g.tights, scarves, inside a pillowcase.
To avoid the need to iron easycare polyester/cotton items it is better to only dry small loads (i.e. half fill drum) It is
better to dry small and large articles together.
Fabric softeners, or similar products, should be used as specified by the fabric softener instructions.
Do not overload the dryer or dry large bulky items such as duvets or sleeping bags as it is important that the airflow
through the dryer is not obstructed.
The final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that the items are left at a
temperature that ensures that the items will not be damaged.
Items that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene, spot removers,
turpentine, waxes and wax removers should be washed in hot water with an extra amount of detergent before being
dried in the tumble dryer.
Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubber backed articles and clothes or
pillows fitted with foam rubber pads should not be dried in the tumble dryer.

The standard cotton programme is suitable to dry normal wet cotton laundry. It is the most efficient programme in
terms of energy consumption for drying wet cotton laundry.
If your appliance is Uni-directional, a full load will typically take 90 minutes and will use approximately 2.05kWh
of electricity. A half load will typically take 55 minutes and will use approximately 1.15kWh of electricity.
If your appliance is Reversing, a full load will typically take 105 minutes and will use approximately 2.22kWh of
electricity. A half load will typically take 55 minutes and will use approximately 1.08 kWh of electricity.
The power consumption of the off-mode and the left-on mode is zero.
Turn the timer knob fully clockwise, then turn to the required time setting (see programme chart on control panel
for recommendations).
For energy labeling purposes (EN61121:2005) for a cotton dry load, use the maximum load weight for cotton and
set the timer to the recommended drying time for cotton dry as specified on the control panel.
