Drying at normal temperature.
Drying at low temperature
also select Low Heat .
Do not machine dry.
Observe safety instructions without fail
Page 11!
Do not tumble-dry the following fabrics for example:
– Impermeable fabrics (e.g. rubber-coated fabrics).
– Delicate materials (silk or curtains made from synthetic material)
they may crease
– Laundry contaminated with oil.
Drying tips
– To ensure a consistent result, sort the laundry by fabric type and drying programme.
– Always dry very small items (e.g. baby socks) together with large items of laundry (e.g. hand
towel).
– Close zips, hooks and eyelets, and button up covers.
Tie fabric belts, apron strings, etc. together
– Do not over-dry easy-care laundry
risk of creasing!
Allow laundry to finish drying in the air.
– Do not dry woolens in the dryer, only use to freshen them up
Page 7, Woollens finish
Programme (depending on model).
– Do not iron laundry immediately after drying, fold items up and leave for a while
function is also selected-
remaining moisture will then be distributed evenly.
– Machine-knitted fabrics (e.g. T-shirts or jerseys) often shrink the first time they are 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.
– Use the correct dosage of fabric softener as per the manufacturer's instructions when
washing the laundry to be dried.
– Use the timer programme for small loads
this improves 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.
– Put in, but do not exceed, the maximum recommended quantity of laundry

– Make sure the room is well ventilated during drying.
