Preparing the Clothes

NOTE
• Do not overload the appliance for the best drying performance and most efficient
energy usage.
Checking the clothes before
loading
CAUTION
• Check that the clothes are not stuck
between appliance and door,
otherwise the clothes may get
damaged while drying.
• Observe the maximum load capacity
on the programme table for the
relevant drying programme to get
optimum drying results. Overloading
gives a poor drying result and causes
unnecessary creasing.
• Do not load soaking wet clothes into
the appliance. It will cause an
increasing of drying time and energy
consumption. Make sure that the
clothes are spun thoroughly before
loading.
• A mixed fabric load can cause the
drying time to be extended and the
time remaining in the display to pause
during active drying. The remaining
time will then continue when it is the
actual time that remains.
• Make sure to empty all pockets. Items
such as nails, hair clips, matches, pens,
coins and keys can damage both your
appliance and clothes.
• Remove loose belts and close zippers,
hooks and strings to make sure that
these items do not snag other clothes.
Sorting the Clothes
Clothes have their own fabric care labels,
so drying according to the fabric care
label is recommended.
Sort the clothes into size and type of
fabric and then prepare the clothes
according to the symbols on the fabric
care labels.
Woollens
• Dry woollens on the Wool programme.
Be sure to follow fabric care label
symbols first. Wool may not be
completely dried from the cycle, so do
not repeat drying. Pull woollens to
their original shape and dry them flat.
Woven and Loopknit Materials
• Some woven and loopknit materials
may shrink, depending on quality.
Non-Iron and Synthetics
• Do not overload the appliance. Take
out non-Iron items as soon as the
appliance stops to reduce creases.
Baby Clothes and Night Gowns
• Always check fabric care labels.
Rubber and Plastics
• Do not dry any items made from or
containing rubber or plastics such as:
- Aprons, Bibs and Chair Covers
- Curtains and Table Clothes
- Bathmats
