HINTS & TIPS ON DRYING
Before placing articles of laundry in your tumble dryer, check the care labels to ensure they are
recommended for tumble drying
•
Always load well spun laundry. The
higher the spin speed the lower the
electricity consumption and the shorter the
drying time.
• DO NOT load dripping wet laundry into
the dryer. Roll the article in a towel or
spin to remove excess water.
•
Close poppers and zips and fasten any
buttons.
•
Sort the laundry. Separate synthetics from
cottonsAinens, and dry separately.
• Remove the laundry immediately after the
programme has finished or select the Anti¬
crease option.
• Use a fabric conditioning sheet to reduce
static. We recommend the sheet is pinned
to an article of laundry (using a safety
pin).
• Mix the load i.e. large and small articles.
• When drying items such as sheets, we
recommend you periodically stop the
dryer to redistribute the load.
DO NOT use the tumble dryer to dry the
following:
• Articles contaminated with inflammable
substances e.g. petrol, cleaning solvents,
cooking oil, fats or hair lacquer.
• Woollen and synthetic wool mixtures
unless the item is labelled as suitable for
tumble drying.
• Very delicate articles such as silk
•
Very large and bulky items such as duvets
or sleeping bags.
