Before The First Drying Cycle; Sorting And Preparing Laundry - AEG Electrolux LAVATHERM 7071 TK ELECTRONIC User Information

Before the first drying cycle

In order to remove any residues which may have been produced during
production, wipe the dryer drum with a damp cloth or carry out a brief
drying cycle (20 MIN) with damp cloths in the machine.

Sorting and preparing laundry

Sorting laundry
• Sort by fabric type:
– Cotton/linen for programmes in COTTONS (BAUMWOLLE) pro-
gramme group.
– Mixtures and synthetics for programmes in EASY CARES (MISCH-
GEWEBE) programme group.
• Sorting by care label. The care labels mean:
Basic drying in
tumble dryer possible
• Do not dry new, coloured textiles together with light-coloured laun-
dry items. Textile colours may bleed.
• Do not dry tricot or knitted items with the EXTRA DRY (EXTRA-
TROCKEN) programme. Items may become stuck!
• Do not dry wool in the dryer. May become entangled! After air-dry-
ing, wool may be dried with the WOOL CARE (WOLLPFLEGE) pro-
gramme.
Preparing laundry
• To avoid laundry becoming tangled: Close zips, button up coverings
and tie loose bands or ribbons (e.g. of aprons).
• Empty pockets. Remove metallic items (paperclips, safety pins etc).
• Turn items with double-layered fabrics inside out (e.g. with cotton-
lined anoraks, the cotton layer should be outermost). These fabrics
will then dry better.
