Information on laundry ...

Labelling of fabrics

Follow the manufacturer's care information.

hc

Suitable for tumble drying

(c

Dry at normal temperature.

'c

Dry at low temperature.

)c

Do not tumble dry.

Do not tumble-dry the following fabrics:

– Non-breathable fabrics (e.g. rubber-coated).
– Delicate materials (silk, curtains made from synthetic material) 

a

 these may crease.

– Oil-stained laundry.

Drying tips

– To ensure a consistent drying result, sort the laundry by fabric type and drying programme.
– Always dry very small fabrics (e.g. baby socks) together with large items of laundry 

(e.g. towels).

– Close zips, hooks and eyelets, and button up covers. Tie cloth belts, apron strings, etc. 

together or use a laundry bag.

– 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

 residual 

moisture will then be distributed evenly.

– Knitted fabrics (e.g. T-shirts, jerseys) often shrink slightly the first time they are tumble-dried. 

a

 Do not use the 



 C/board dry extra 

programme.

– Starched laundry is not always suitable for dryers 

a

 starch leaves behind a coating that 

reduces the drying effect.

– When washing laundry that is to be tumble-dried afterwards, use the correct amount of 

fabric softener as specified in the manufacturer's instructions.

– With a small load, use the Timed programme.

Environmental protection / Energy-saving tips

– Before drying, spin the laundry in the washing machine 

a

 the higher the spin speed, 

the shorter the drying time will be, thus less energy is consumed. Also spin easy-care 
laundry.

– Use the maximum recommended capacity, but do not exceed it 

a

 Programme overview,

– Make sure the room is well ventilated during drying

.

– Clean the fluff filters after every drying cycle
