Time controlled drying
(1) Never overfill the drum (do not load large quilts, for example).
Drying times vary according to:
• The type of laundry
• The size of the load
• The degree of spinning prior to drying.
Fresh & Cool
This position on programme selector dial can be used to freshen the laundry (e.g. to remove a persistent odour
of moth-balls).
Load
It is often difficult to estimate the weight of items to be dried. We therefore recommend that you adopt the
following guidelines:
•
cotton, linen
: drum full but not too tightly packed;
•
synthetics
: drum no more than half full;
•
delicate fabrics
: drum no more than one third full.
