Unsatisfactory drying results
Problem
The laundry is not suffi-
ciently dry.
Laundry or feather filled
pillows smell after dry-
ing.
Items made of synthetic
fibres are charged with
static electricity after
drying.
There is a build-up of
fluff.
60
Cause and remedy
The load consisted of different types of fabric.
Finish drying using the Timed drying warm air pro-
gramme.
The laundry was washed with insufficient detergent
Feathers are a natural product and this is quite nor-
mal.
Laundry: use sufficient detergent next time.
Allow feather pillows to air after tumble drying.
Synthetic fibres tend to attract static charge.
Static charge can be reduced by adding a fabric
conditioner to the final rinse in the washing pro-
gramme or a fabric conditioner sheet to the load
when drying.
Fluff is principally the result of friction when garments
are being worn and to some extent when they are be-
ing washed. Machine drying hardly causes any fluff to
form and has no appreciable effect on the lifetime of
the fabric.
Fluff is collected by the fluff filters and fine filter and
can be easily removed
(see "Cleaning and care").
