• Always load well spun laundry. The higher the spin
speed the lower the electricity consumption and the
shorter the drying time.
• DO NOT load dripping wet laundry into the dryer. Roll
the article in a towel or spin to remove excess water.
• Close poppers and zips and fasten any buttons.
• Sort the laundry. Separate synthetics from
cotton/linens, and dry separately.
• Remove the laundry immediately after the programme
has finished.
• Use a fabric conditioning sheet to reduce static. We
recommend the sheet is pinned to an article of laundry
(using a safety pin).
• Mix the load i.e. large and small articles.
• When drying large items such as sheets, we
recommend you periodically stop the dryer to
redistribute the load.
DO NOT use the tumble dryer to dry the
following:
• Articles contaminated with inflammable substances e.g.
petrol, cleaning solvents, cooking oil, fats or hair
lacquer.
• Woollen and synthetic/wool mixtures unless the item is
labelled as suitable for tumble drying.
• Very delicate articles such as silk.
• Very large and bulky items such as duvets or sleeping
bags.
