1. Always separate laundry into the correct fabric groups before
washing and drying.
2. See that all zips are closed, hooks and eyes are fastened and
belt, strings etc. are tied loosely in bows, you will normally have
done this for each item before the washing stage.
3. It is important to extract as much water as possible from each
item before drying. This saves you time and money.
WARNING: CLOTHES SHOULD NEVER BE LOADED
DRIPPING WET
4. Make sure that the items to be dried are suitable for tumble
drying, or are not of a type requiring 'special attention' (see"Wash
Care Labels" section).
Your dryer will hold a load of 3kg (6.6lb) dry weight of natural fabrics.
if you are drying items of man-made fibres (synthetic or acrylics), the
maximum load should not exceed 2kg (4.4lb) dry weight.
This difference is that man-made fibres require more space to
tumble-dry without creasing.
WARNING: DO NOT OVERLOAD AS THIS COULD RESULT IN
REDUCED DRYING PERFORMANCE AND A POSSIBLE FIRE
HAZARD.
To help you estimate how many items it takes to make up a drying
load, the charts below show the approximate weights of some
everyday washing items.

If you group small cotton or terry-towelling items with a synthetic
fabric load they could be damp at the end of the drying cycle. If this
happens simply give them an additional short period of drying to
finish them off.
