Making up Loads
Clothes should be sorted into loads
of similar fabrics before drying.
Cotton which needs ironing can be
dried to a suitable dampness. Towels
and other cotton items which do not
need ironing can be fully dried and
these will be ready to wear or store
as soon as they are taken from the
dryer.
Heavy fabrics should be dried
separately from lightweight fabrics.
Loose belts, apron strings etc.
should be tied and zip fasteners fully
closed before being placed in the
dryer. Garments like jeans should be
turned inside out to avoid damage to
the drum by metal studs.
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.
WARNING – DO NOT OVERLOAD AS THIS
COULD RESULT IN POORER DRYING
PERFORMANCE AND A POSSIBLE FIRE
HAZARD.
How to load the
Dryer
1. Open the loading door by pulling the
door handle forwards.
2. Before loading the Dryer, make sure
the fluff filter is in position and clean
(see page 16).
3. If your Dryer is brand new, wipe out the
inside of the drum before you first use
it, to remove any dust which may have
accumulated during transit.
4. To load, place the clothes carefully in
the drum pushing them well towards
the back and clear of the door seal.
5. Close the door firmly so that it clicks.
This indicates that the latch has been
engaged.
Wash Care labels
Most of today's fabrics can be tumble
dried in your Dryer with no trouble at
all, but there are certain fabric
finishes which should be dried away
from direct heat.
A lot of garments now have washcare
labels on them, giving full washing and
drying instructions.
These should always be followed
carefully, especially when you are
drying something for the first time. If
you find labels like the following. This
is what they mean.
Tumble dry at hlgh heat settlng.
Tumble dry at low heat settlng.
Do not tumble dry.
