or similar substances.
Notes
Before drying, hand-washed textiles
■
must be spun at the appropriate spin
speed.
Before drying, spin at the optimum
■
speed. A spin speed of more than
1000 rpm is recommended for
cotton, more than 800 rpm for easy-
care textiles.
Do not iron washing immediately
■
after drying. It is recommended to
roll the washing up first to distribute
residual moisture evenly.
To ensure a good drying
■
performance, quilts, terry cloths and
other large textiles should be dried
separately. Do not dry more than 6
terry cloths (or 5 kg).
Do not exceed the maximum load.
