In order to remove any residue which may have been produced during pro-
duction, wipe the dryer drum with a damp cloth or undertake a brief drying
cycle (30 MIN) with damp cloths.
Sorting and preparing laundry
Sorting laundry
•
Sort by fabric type:
–
Cotton/linen for programmes in COTTONS (BAUMWOLLE) programme
group.
–
Mixtures and synthetics for programmes in EASY CARES (MISCH-
GEWEBE) programme group.
•
Sorting by care label. The care labels mean:
•
Do not dry new, coloured textiles together with light-coloured laundry
items. Textile colours may bleed.
•
Do not dry tricot or knitted items with the EXTRA DRY (EXTRA TROCKEN)
programme. Items may become stuck!
•
Do not dry wool in the dryer. May become entangled! After air-drying,
wool may be dried with the WOOL CARE (WOLLPFLEGE) programme.
Preparing laundry
•
To avoid laundry becoming tangled: Close zips, button up coverings and
tie loose bands or ribbons (e.g. of aprons).
•
Empty pockets. Remove metallic items (paperclips, safety pins etc).
•
Turn items with double-layered fabrics inside out (e.g. with cotton-lined
anoraks, the cotton layer should be outermost). These fabrics will then dry
better.
