7 BEFORE TUMBLE DRYING Before you start tumble drying, here is some advice that can be useful. SPIN-DRIED? Items that are to be tumble dried should first be spin-dried, preferably at 800 revs per minute or more. Better spin drying saves both energy and drying time.

Dry, Normal dry These programs turn off the heat when the wash- ing is dry, but not bone-dry. The Dry program turns off the heat a little later than Normal dry. Choose what you prefer by trial and error. Use these programs when you want dry fabrics.
TEMPERATURE You can choose temperature Normal or Low, see chapter 10, Making own drying programs. DRYING TIME Drying time depends on many factors, such as the amount of washing, how damp it is, the type of fabrics, rated power of the machine and the temperature and humidity of the input air.
