How to dry correctly
Hints on saving energy
Make sure that your laundry has
been thoroughly spun at the highest
appropriate spin speed before
drying. Spinning at 1600 rpm, for ex-
ample, saves approximately 30%
energy and time compared with 800
rpm.
Load the full amount of laundry ac-
cording to the programme chosen
(see “Programme chart”) for the
most economical drying related to
the size of the load. Make sure that
the drum is not over- or underloa-
ded.
As far as possible, sort fabrics for:
– the type of fibre or weave
– the degree of drying required
– similar size of items
– the moisture content after spinning.
This will help towards an even drying
result.
Ensure the room is well ventilated.
1Switching on and loading
Fasten duvet covers etc to prevent
small items from being rolled up insi-
de them.
Do up zips and tie fabric belts and
apron strings.
Press the “l-On / 0-Off” button.
Press the “Door” button and open
the door.
Make sure there is no washing de-
tergent dispenser among the
laundry, as this could melt and da-
mage the machine and the laundry.
Load the laundry very loosely into
the drum.
Do not overload the drum. Overloa-
ding can cause unnecessary wear
and tear to the laundry and give a
disappointing drying result.
Shut the door with a light swing but
do not slam it. Do not push on the
door to shut it.
Important: Please check that items
of laundry cannot be trapped by the
door, as this will cause damage to
the fabric.
