7 BEFORE TUMBLE DRYING

Before you start tumble drying, here is some
advice that can be useful.

SPIN-DRIED?

Items that are to be tumble dried should first
be spin-dried, preferably at 800 revs per minute
or more. Better spin drying saves both energy
and drying time.

RECOMMENDED WASHING MARKING

 Material suitable for tumble drying

The symbol above indicates that the material
can be tumble-dried. Cotton fabrics, towelling
and synthetic fibres are best suited to tumble
drying. Clothes and fabrics become softer and
fluffier when tumble-dried than when dried on
a line.

NOTE

Wear and tear of fabrics in a tumble dryer is
minimal. The lint caught in the lint filter con-
sists of dust and fibre residue that has been for-
med when wearing the garments.

 Material which should not be tumble-

dried

This symbol indicates that the material will not
withstand tumble-drying.

Certain materials will melt or become dan-

gerously flammable if heated, while others will
loose their shape or shrink.

Do not tumble-dry...

• Materials that are marked “Do not dry close
to heat”.
• Items that have been dry-cleaned at home.
• Foam plastic.
• Glass-fibre materials
• Woollen items, because of the risk of felting.

SORTING FABRICS

Best results are obtained if all articles are of the
same material.

Close zip-fasteners, button up garments, tie

belts, and sort the fabrics and adapt the load
and the temperature as shown in the table be-
low.
