MORE COMBO TIPS
•
Always use fabric softener. Using
softener assures that the laundry falls
easily from the drum after high spin
and tumbles freely during the dry
cycle.
•
ONLY use 'Cotton Heavy Duty' cycles
for HEAVY cottons (towels, jeans,
etc.)
•
For items that may wrinkle, use 'LOW
SPIN' in wash and/or 'LOW HEAT'
with 'Synthetics Dry.'
•
For mixed loads, remove items that
may wrinkle while still damp (dress
shirts, etc.) Hand press and hang
them. Then, continue drying the rest
of the load (underwear, towels, etc.)
•
After washing, shake out LARGE
ITEMS (pants, sheets, etc.) Loosely
fold them and place them back in the
drum. Then start a Dry cycle. This
will improve drying times and reduce
fabric wrinkling.
FOR BEST DRYING
Your washer-dryer operates on 110V
and has a 1300W dryer. It will take
longer to dry than a traditional dryer
(which operates on 220V). For best dry-
ing results, follow these tips:
• Keep the door closed during the
dry cycle. This conserves energy by
trapping heat,
• Use a LOW SUDSING (HE) detergent,
• Use FABRIC SOFTENER or a
detergent with built-in softeners,
• DO NOT OVERLOAD the drum,
• DO NOT OVER DRY your laundry.
Moisture is what makes fabrics soft
and fl uffy.
Doing laundry in a Combo
• Don't let laundry pile up. Keep up with
laundry by doing a small load every day or
two. Make it part of your routine to throw a
load in after your workout or before you go
to bed and let your Splendide do the rest!
• Because your washer-dryer is front-load-
ing and operates on 110V, cycle times
may be longer than what you're used
to: 40 to 80 minutes to wash. 90 to 110
minutes to dry.
• Your washer-dryer is extremely effi cient.
You might not be able to see water in the
drum during wash. This is NORMAL.
• Always use fabric softener or detergent
with built-in softeners for WASH-TO-DRY
LOADS. Using softener assures that the
laundry falls easily from the drum after
high spin and tumbles freely during the
dry cycle.
• When the wash-to-dry cycle is com-
plete the door will unlock and both the
'DRY' and 'DOOR LOCK' LED's will fl ash
SLOWLY. This is normal.
What if I have a ventless dryer?
If your washer-dryer is ventless, (Model
7100XC) and uses 2.5 gal. of water* per hour
to DRY laundry. When you remove items af-
ter the self-condensing drying process, they
may feel slightly damp. THIS IS NORMAL.
Simply shake items out to allow any steam
to dissipate (a few seconds) before folding or
hanging them as you usually would. * NOTE:
Splendide's self-condensing drying pro-
cess will not add heat or humidity to the
surrounding area.
Where's the lint fi lter?
Splendide's are so gentle, they produce
very little lint. There's no lint fi lter for you
to clean because a specially designed
self-cleaning pump does the work for you.
However, if your washer-dryer is vented
(Model 2100XC), it's recommended that you
occasionally, go outside and check the dryer
vent for proper airfl ow. Assure that the vent
and ducting are lint-free.
