■
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.
