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 dry woollens in the dryer. They may, however, be refreshed in the dryer a

page 7,

÷

Wool finish programme (

depending on model

).

– 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

+

: Cupboard Dry Plus

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.

– For pre-dried, multi-layered fabrics or small, individual items of laundry, use the timed programme. Also suitable for subsequent drying.

Environmental protection / Energy-saving tips

– Before drying, spin the laundry in the washing machine a

higher spin speeds minimise the drying time and reduce energy consumption.

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

– Make sure the room is well ventilated during drying

– Clean the fluff filter after every drying cycle a
