Start and Programmes

Easy Iron Programme

‘Easy Iron’ is a short 10 minute programme (8 minutes of heat followed by a 2 minute cool tumble period) which
fluffs the fibres of clothing that have been left in the same position/location for an extended period of time. The cycle
relaxes the fibres and makes them easier to iron and fold.

!

‘Easy Iron’ is 

not a drying programme

and should not be used for wet articles of clothing.

For best results:  1. Do not load more than the maximum capacity. These numbers refer to the dry weight:

Fabric

Maximum load

Cotton and Cotton mixtures

2.5kg

Synthetics

2kg

Denim

2kg

2. Unload the dryer immediately after the end of the programme, hang, fold or iron the articles 

and put them away in the closet. Should this not be possible repeat the programme.

The ‘Easy Iron’ effect varies from one fabric to the next. It works well on traditional fabrics like Cotton or Cotton mix,
and less well on acrylic fibres and on materials such as Tencel®.

Wool Programme

This is a programme for tumble dryer safe garments marked with the symbol       .

It can be used for load sizes up to 1kg (approximately 3 sweaters).

We recommend that garments are turned inside out before drying.

This programme will take about 60 minutes, but may take longer depending on the size and density of the load and the 
spin speed used in your washer.

Loads dried using this programme are usually ready to wear, but on some heavier garments the edges may be slightly 
damp.  Allow these to dry naturally as over-drying could damage garments.  

!

Unlike other materials, the mechanism of wool shrinkage is irreversible; i.e. it will not stretch back to original size and shape.

!

This programme is not suitable for Acrylic garments.

Baby Delicate Programme

This is a programme for drying your baby’s small delicate items of clothing and bedding (Cotton and Chenille) 
and for drying your delicate clothes ie. Acrylics.

DO NOT dry items such as bibs and nappy pants with plastic coverings.

It can be used for load sizes up to 2kg.

This programme will take about 120 minutes, but may take longer depending on the size and density of the load 
and the spin speed used in your washer.

Loads dried using this programme are usually ready to wear, but on some heavier garments the edges may be 
slightly damp.  If this is the case, try turning items inside out and running the programme again for a short period.

Silk

This is a programme for drying your delicate silk.

It can be used for load sizes up to 0.5kg.

This programme will take about 110 minutes, but may take longer depending on the size and density of the load 
and the spin speed used in your washer.

Loads dried using this programme are usually ready to use, but on some heavier garments the edges may be 
slightly damp. If this is the case, remove the load and open them out and then run the programme again for a short 
period.

Heat & Enjoy

This programme helps to heat towels & bathrobes for a warm sensation after a bath or shower. It is also useful for
warming clothes before dressing during winter. The cycle heats clothes to 37°C (Body Temperature) and runs at this
temperature until you stop the cycle. Maximum load 3kg.

Note:

During this programme the Start/Pause light flashes Amber.

Refresh

!

‘Refresh’ is 

not a drying programme

and should not be used for wet articles of clothing.

It can be used on any load sizes up to 8kg, but is more effective on smaller loads.

This is a 20 minute programme that airs your clothes with cool air. Also use to cool warm clothes.

Cuddly Toy  Programme

With this programme you can remove dust easier and wash the cuddly toys more often because the drying time is
very much reduced compared to drying in the open air. It is a delicate drying cycle that dries at low temperature
and with soft mechanical action to maintain at best the original look and shine of the fur.
Note: For allergy protection, just freeze cuddly toys for 24 hours then wash and dry them. Repeat every 6 weeks.
Before drying remove accessories such as clothes, collars or sound boxes and protect plastic eyes with masking
tape after drying them with a cloth.
This programme will take about 200 minutes: Load 2-3 Cuddly Toys.
