Preparing The Load; Clothes Preparation; Do Not Tumble Dry; Energy Saving - Hoover DYC 890NB Instruction Book

Before using the tumble dryer for the first time:
● Please read this instruction book thoroughly.
● Remove all items packed inside drum.
● Wipe the inside of the drum and door with a
damp cloth to remove any dust which may
have settled in transit.

Clothes Preparation

Make sure that the laundry you are going to dry
is suitable for drying in a tumble dryer, as shown
by the care symbols on each item.
Check that all fastenings are closed and that
pockets are empty. Turn the articles inside out.
Place clothes loosely in the drum to make sure
that they don't get tangled.

Do Not Tumble Dry:

Woollens, silk, delicate fabrics, nylon stockings,
delicate embroidery, fabrics with metallic dec-
orations, garments with PVC or leather
trimmings, training shoes, bulky items such as
sleeping bags, etc.
IMPORTANT: Do not dry articles which
have been treated with a dry cleaning fluid or
rubber clothes (danger of fire or explosion).
During the last 15 minutes the load is always
tumbled in cool air.
Do not overload the drum, large items when
wet can exceed the maximum admissible clothes
load (for example: sleeping bags, duvets).

Energy Saving

Only put into the tumble dryer laundry which has
been thoroughly wrung or spin-dried. The drier the
laundry the shorter the drying time thus saving
electricity.
ALWAYS
● Try to dry the maximum weight of laundry, this will
save time and electricity.
● Check that the filter is clean before every drying
cycle.
NEVER
● Exceed the maximum weight, this will waste time
and electricity.
● Put dripping wet items into the tumble dryer, this
may damage the appliance.
