Drying tips
– To ensure a consistent result, sort the laundry by fabric type and drying programme.
– Always dry very small items (e.g. baby socks) together with larger items (e.g. hand towels).
– Close zips, hooks and eyelets, and button up covers. Tie cloth belts, bands, etc. together.
– Do not over-dry easy-care laundry
a
risk of creasing!
Allow laundry to finish drying in the air.
– Do not iron laundry immediately after drying, fold items up and leave for a while
a
the remaining moisture will then be distributed evenly.
– Knitted fabrics (e.g. T-shirts, jerseys) often shrink during their first drying.
a
Do not use the
Extra seco
(Very Dry) programme.
– Starched laundry is not always suitable for dryers
a
starch leaves behind a coating that
adversely affects the drying operation.
– Use the correct dosage of fabric softener as per the manufacturer's instructions when
washing the laundry to be dried.
– Use the timer programme for small loads
a
this improves the drying result.
Environmental protection/energy-saving tips
– Before drying, spin the laundry thoroughly in the washing machine
a
the higher the spin
speed, the shorter the drying time will be (consumes less energy), also spin easy-care
laundry.
– Use the maximum recommended capacity, but do not exceed it
