Notes on laundry ...

Labelling of fabrics
Follow the manufacturer's care instructions.
Drying at a normal temperature.
Drying at a lower temperature -> in addition, select Gentle
Do not machine dry.
Be sure to follow the safety instructions -> page 11!
For example, do not use the dryer for the following fabrics:
– Airtight fabrics (e.g. rubber-coated fabrics).
– Delicate materials (silk, curtains made from synthetic material) -> they may crease.
– Laundry contaminated with oil.
Before drying for the first time
– Do not put any laundry in the machine. Turn the programme selector to Zeitprogramm
(timer programme) (-> page 7) and select
the programme selector to o (Off).
Drying tips
– To ensure a consistent 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. hand towels).
– Fasten zips, hooks and eyelets, button covers and tie together cloth belts, bands, etc.
– Do not overdry easy-care laundry -> 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
-> the remaining moisture will then be distributed evenly.
– Knitted fabrics (e.g. T-shirts, jerseys) often shrink slightly the first time they are tumble-dried.
-> Do not use the Very Dry : programme.
– Starched laundry is not always suitable for dryers -> starch leaves behind a coating that
adversely affects the drying operation.
– When washing the laundry that is to be tumble-dried, measure the fabric softener in
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
– Using a timer programme with a small laundry load -> optimisation of the drying result.
Environmental protection/energy-saving tips
– Before drying, spin the laundry thoroughly in the washing machine -> the higher the spin
speed, the shorter the drying time will be (consumes less energy), also spin easy-care
laundry.
– Use the maximum recommended fill level but do not overload with laundry
-> overview of programmes, page 7.
– Make sure the room is well ventilated during drying.
– Clean the fluff filter after every drying cycle -> page 4.
