Drying

Tip: See the "Programme chart".
It lists all programmes and their max-
imum load sizes.
- Always observe the maximum recom-
mended load size for each pro-
gramme. This will mean that the en-
ergy consumption for the amount of
laundry is at its most economical.
- Down-filled garments have linings
which have a tendency to shrink, de-
pending on the quality of the item.
Only use the Woollens handcare pro-
gramme for these textiles.
- Pure linen should only be tumble
dried if it is specified as suitable on
the care label. The surface of the fab-
ric may otherwise become rough.
Only use the Woollens handcare pro-
gramme for these textiles.
- Woollens and wool blends are sus-
ceptible to becoming matted or
shrinking. Only use the Woollens
handcare programme for these tex-
tiles.
- Jersey fabrics (e.g. T-shirts, under-
wear) tend to shrink when they are
washed for the first time. Do not
overdry these fabrics to prevent fur-
ther shrinking. Buy jersey garments
that are one or two sizes bigger.
- With fabrics that are particularly heat-
sensitive or susceptible to creasing,
reduce the drying load size and select
Gentle tumble.
