Drying tips

– Observe the maximum loads, see the
"Program Guide".
Overloading the dryer will result in
poor drying results and wrinkling.
– Dry delicate fabrics with the fabric
care symbol r with the "Gentle"
option.
– Do not dry dripping wet items in the
dryer. Spin the laundry after the wash
for at least 30 seconds.
– Open jackets to allow even drying.
– Wool and wool blends tend to felt
and shrink. Dry these items in the
"Woolens" program.
10
– The fine cotton fabric or down filled
items tends to shrink.
– Dry pure linen items only if it is
advised on the fabric care label. The
surface of the fabric otherwise tends
to become "rough".
– Knitted fabrics (e.g. T-Shirts and
underwear) tend to shrink when
washed and dried for the first time.
Do not over-dry these fabrics.
– Permanent press and delicate
fabrics tend to crease more the
bigger the load size.
For better drying results reduce the
load size or select the "Delicates"
program.
– Starched laundry can be dried in the
tumble dryer. However, the amount
of starch must be doubled during the
wash.
– Wash new, colored items before
drying for the first time and do not
dry with light-colored items. These
fabrics can "bleed" (also on plastic
parts of the dryer). Colored lint could
adhere to light-colored items.
