Sorting And Loading - Fisher & Paykel DE6060M Installation Manual/User Manual

When preparing your load there are some important things to consider:
Sorting
We recommend sorting your garments before placing them into the dryer.
z
Sort into loads of similar items, and loads that will likely take similar times to dry.
Heavier items (eg towels, and flannelette sheets) are best dried separately from
lightweight items (eg synthetics, polyester-cotton sheets and shirts).
This prevents some items becoming over-dried while others are still damp
and helps extend the life of your clothing and linen.
Fisher & Paykel recommends tumble drying bulky items such as duvets/doonas
z
on low-medium heat only. Do not overload the drum because this can cause
scorching of the item.
Care labels provide valuable information about the fabric type and how the item
z
should be dried. Always follow advice on care labels and only dry items in this dryer
with care labels indicating tumble drying is suitable.
Drying your clothes as soon as you remove them from the washer will decrease
z
both wrinkles formation and dye transfer from coloured to white items.
Separate coloured items from white/light items where possible, especially when
z
new. Colour run may be an issue, particularly if you intend to delay the start of the
drying cycle.
We recommend that articles of clothing with screen-printing are turned inside out
z
to prevent damage to the print. Hooks or zippers should be fastened and where
possible and those items turned inside out.

COMMENTS
Towels produce a lot of lint and
are best dried on their own.
Ensure duvet/doona cover
openings are buttoned/domed
before placing in the dryer.
Only dry one bulky item at a time
and place dryer balls (or tennis
balls) into the dryer at the same
time to ensure the bulky item
moves around evenly.
You can further reduce the
dryness level to damp.
Turn jeans inside out to help
maintain their appearance.
Dry separately from other items.
