Sorting And Loading - Fisher & Paykel DE7060P2 Installation Manual/User Manual

When preparing your load there are some important things to consider:
Sorting
It is best that you sort your garments before placing them into the dryer.
z
Sort into loads of similar items, and loads that will 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 the possibility of some items becoming over-dried whilst others
are still damp. It will also help to extend the life of your clothing and linen.
Drying your clothes as soon as you remove them from the washer will decrease the
z
chance of wrinkles, and dye transfer from coloured items to white items from occurring.
Garments with hooks or zippers should be fastened where possible and turned inside
z
out.
Care labels on garments provide valuable information about the fabric type and
z
how the garment should be dried. Always follow the advice on the garment labels.
Only dry items in this dryer that have a care label stating tumble drying is suitable.
Separate coloured items from white/light items where possible, especially when new.
z
Colour run may be an issue, especially if you intend to delay the start of the drying
cycle.

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.
Wrinkle Free is automatically selected to
help minimise creasing once the drying cycle
has finished.
For items that could be damaged if they
are tumbled, eg woollens. Ensure the drying
rack has been correctly fitted.
You can further reduce the dryness level
to damp or use the drying rack for very
delicate items.
Turn jeans inside out to help maintain their
appearance. Dry separately from other items.
Check on the item regularly throughout
the drying cycle. Ensure the rack has been
correctly fitted.
Check on the item regularly throughout
the drying cycle. Ensure the rack has been
