Unlike other materials, the shrinking process in wool is irreversible, i.e. the garment does not resume its original dimension and sha-
pe. This programme is not suited for acrylic items.
Jeans Programme
This programme is suited for drying cotton denim jeans. Turn the front pockets inside out before drying the jeans. It is suitable for
loads of up to 3 kg (about 4 pairs).
Garments dried using this programme are usually ready to be worn, though edges and seams may be slightly damp. If this occurs,
turn the jeans inside out and reactivate the programme for a short while.
! The duration of this program will depend on the size of the load and the spin speed used in your washer.
Use this cycle for 100% cotton garments only; do not mix dark and light colours and avoid using this programme for garments with
embroidery and accessories (elastic strings around the waist area, brooches, etc.); turn pockets inside out.
Special Shoes Programme
This programme is specific for drying sports shoes. The shoes must have been previously washed and spun at a minimum spin
speed of 400 revolutions.
A specific shoe rack is provided and must be used, otherwise the dryer will be damaged if shoes are dried in the drum. Remove the
filter from its holder on the front part of the dryer and position the shoe rack.
Place shoelaces inside the shoes then load with the tips of the shoes facing downwards and the soles frontwards.
Drying times vary according to the shape and type of the shoe. If the shoes are not completely dry at the end of the programme,
restart the programme.
Do not dry shoes that have gel or flashing lights inside them. Only dry shoes made of synthetic material or rope. Once the program-
me ends, remove the shoe rack and replace the filter into its holder

up to 4 kg. We suggest turning garments inside out before drying them.

Sport Light Programme
This programme is designed for safely drying garments such as Fitness suits and shorts bearing the symbol. It is ideal for those
garments that do not need to be dried fully or which have to be ironed. We suggest turning garments inside out before drying them.

Outwear Programme
This programme is specific for drying water-repellent fabrics and sports jackets (e.g. Gore-Tex, polyester, nylon). Drying the garment
after a wash cycle has a beneficial effect as it reactivates the garment’s water-repellent treatment.
It can be used for loads of up to 2 kg.

Easy Iron
A short 10-minute programme that relaxes the garment’s fibres in order to facilitate ironing and folding.
This programme is particularly recommended for cotton or mixed cotton fabrics.
For optimal results, do not overload the drum (the following values refer to the weight of dry garments):
Fabric: maximum load
Cotton and mixed cotton: 2.5 kg
Synthetic garments: 2 kg

Empty the dryer as soon as the programme ends; hang, fold or iron garments then place them in the wardrobe. If this is not possi-
ble, repeat the programme.
