Drying symbols on garment labels
Always look at the garment label to check whether garments can be
machine dried.
The following symbols refer to drying:
Machine drying is usually possible
Normal drying (normal temperature)
Gentle drying (reduced temperature)
Do not machine dry
Duration of the drying cycle
The drying time can vary according to
• the final spin speed;
• the required degree of drying (store dry or iron dry);
• the type of laundry;
• the size of load.
The usual drying times for the timed programmes are indicated in the
programme chart. As you become more familiar with the appliance, you
will discover the drying times that best suit your needs according to the
various type of fabric. It is a good idea to make a note of these times.
Modification of the drying time or degree of drying
If you wish to modify the drying time or the degree of drying when a dry-
ing programme is running, first depress START/PAUSE button to set the
machine to PAUSE. After modifying the time or degree, depress
START/PAUSE again to continue the programme.
Fibre residue
After drying fluffy fabrics, such as new towels, it is advisable to perform
the RINSE programme to be sure that any residue that may remain in
the tub is completely removed and does not stick to garments dried
afterwards.
After each drying cycle the filter should be checked and cleaned.
Additional drying
Should the laundry still be too wet at the end of the programme, set
another short drying time.
Warning! To prevent the formation of creases or shrinking of fab-
rics, avoid excessive drying.
