Wash care labels
Before drying check the drying
symbol on the wash care label.
Significance of symbols:
q Dry at normal temperature
r Dry at low temperature
sDo not tumble dry
If no symbol is featured, dry at your
own risk applying the following
principles:
Cotton and minimum iron
items should
be dried using the appropriate
programme for the degree of drying
required. See programme chart.
For delicates and fabrics with the
following wash care label r dry using
the
Low temperature
option.
Never overload the drum. Do not
exceed the maximum recommended
loads given in the "Programme
chart". Overloading can cause
unnecessary wear and tear to the
laundry, give a disappointing drying
result and cause more creasing.
Do not put soaking wet items into
the tumble dryer. Spin them
thoroughly after washing using the
appropriate spin speed.
Tips on drying
Woollens and wool blends tend to
become matted and shrink if dried in a
tumble dryer. They can, however, be
partially dried using the
Woollens hand
care
programme.
Items filled with down.
The fabric lining on these garments
may shrink depending on the quality.
They can be partially dried using the
Smoothing
programme.
Pure linen
should only be machine
dried if specified as suitable by the
manufacturer on the wash care label,
as the surface of the fabric may
otherwise "roughen". These items can
be partially dried using the
Smoothing
programme.
Woven and loopknit materials
(e.g.
T-shirts, knitted garments) have a
tendency to shrink, depending on their
quality and this is made worse by
over-drying. When purchasing these
garments it is advisable to take their
shrinkage properties into account.
Minimum iron
fabrics and 100% cotton
shirts or blouses tend to crease more,
the larger the load being dried,
particulary when the weave of the
fabric is very fine. Reduce the load or
use the MINIMUM IRON -
Hand iron
programme with a max. load of 1 kg. If
this is unsatisfactory use the Special
care "Smoothing" setting, then hang the
garments on a hanger to dry.
Starched laundry
can be dried in the
tumble dryer. In order to achieve the
usual finish, double the amount of
starch should be used.
New dark coloured garments
should be
dried separately from light coloured
garments to avoid the danger of col-
ours running.
