Drying hints

B B e e f f o o r r e e l l o o a a d d i i n n g g t t h h e e l l a a u u n n d d r r y y
Never tumble dry the following:
Particularly delicate items such as
net curtains, woollen, silk, fabrics
with metal trim, nylon tights, bulky
materials such as anoraks, blankets,
eiderdowns, sleeping bags, feather
quilts and any items containing rub-
ber foam or materials similar to rub-
ber foam.
• Always follow the instructions on gar-
ment labels:
may be tumble dried
normal drying (high tempera-
ture)
delicate drying (low temperature)
do not tumble dry
• Close pillowcases and covers with
fasteners to prevent small laundry
items getting tangled inside them.
Close press studs, zips and hooks
and tie belts and apron strings.
• Sort laundry according to type and
degree of drying required.
• Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids
creasing and saves energy.
• Avoid drying dark clothes with light
coloured fluffy items such as towels
as they could attract the fluff.
• The laundry must be thoroughly spun
before tumble drying.
• Easy-care items, too, e.g. shirts,
should be briefly pre-spun before
drying (depending on crease resist-
ance approx. 30 seconds or using
11:42

the special brief spin programme on your
washing machine).
• Knitted textiles (knitted underwear)
may shrink a little during drying.
Please do not overdry items of this
type. It is advisable to allow for
shrinkage when choosing the size of
new purchases.
• You can also put starched items into
your dryer. However, to achieve the
desired starched effect, choose the
programme "iron dry". To remove any
starch residues, wipe out the internal
drum after drying with a moist cloth
and then rub it dry.
• To avoid a static charge when drying
is completed, use either a fabric sof-
tener when you are washing the
laundry or a fabric conditioner specif-
ically for tumble dryers.
• Remove the laundry when the dryer
has finished drying.
• If individual items are still damp after
drying, set a brief post-drying time,
for at least 30 minutes. This will be
necessary particularly for multilayered
items (e.g. collars, pockets, etc.).
Do not dry wool in the dryer. May
become entangled! After air-drying,
wool may be dried with the WOOL
CARE programme.
