• Do not dry new, coloured textiles togeth-
er with light-coloured laundry items. Tex-
tile colours may bleed.
• Do not dry cotton jersey and knitwear
with the Extra programme. Items may
shrink!
• Wool and wool-like textiles can be dried
using the Wool programme. Before
the drying cycle spin the woollen textiles
as well as possible (max. 1200 rpm). Only
dry woollen textiles together of similar or
the same material, colour and weight.
Please dry heavy laundry items made of
wool separately.
Preparing laundry
• To avoid laundry becoming tangled:
close zips, button up duvet covers and
tie loose ties or ribbons (e.g. of aprons).
• Empty pockets. Remove metal items (pa-
per clips, safety pins, etc).
• Turn items with double-layered fabrics in-
side out (e.g. with cotton-lined anoraks,
the cotton layer should be outermost).
These fabrics will then dry better.
Important! Do not overload the appliance.
Observe max. loading volume of 8 kg.
SWITCHING MACHINE ON

gramme. The machine switches on. When
