Clothes Preparation Make sure that the laundry you are going to dry is suitable for drying in a tumble dryer, as shown by the care symbols on each item. Check that all fastenings are closed and that pockets are empty. Turn the articles inside out. Place clothes loosely in the drum to make sure that they don't get tangled. Woollens, silk, delicate fabrics, nylon stockings, delicate embroidery, fabrics with metallic decorations, garments with PVC or leather trimmings, training shoes, bulky items such as sleeping bags, etc. IMPORTANT: Do not dry articles which have been treated with a dry cleaning fluid or rubber clothes (danger of fire or explosion). During the last 15 minutes the load is always tumbled in cool air. Do Not Tumble Dry: Energy Saving Only put into the tumble dryer laundry which has been thoroughly wrung or spin-dried. The drier the laundry the shorter the drying time thus saving electricity. ALWAYS

• Try to dry the maximum weight of laundry, this will save time and electricity.

• Check that the filter is clean before every drying cycle. NEVER

• Exceed the maximum weight, this will waste time and electricity.

• Put dripping wet items into the tumble dryer, this may damage the appliance. Do not overload the drum, large items when wet can exceed the maximum admissible clothes load (for example: sleeping bags, duvets). 10 Kg 9 Kg 8 Kg 7 Kg 6 Kg 4 Kg 4 Kg 4 Kg 3,5 Kg 3 KgMax. Max.

The table on the next page lists the programmes and the function of each programme. Note: The sensor may not detect a small load of small articles. For small loads and separate items or pre- dried fabrics with low moisture content, use the timed programmes. If the sensor does not detect the item the dryer will only operate for 10 minutes before going into cooldown. If the load is too large or too wet to tumble dry the dryer will automatically go into cooldown after approximately 3 hours. In these cases we advise to use a time cycles between 30 and 75minutes depending on the load size and dryness required, and select high or low heat depending upon the fabric type.SELECTING THE PROGRAMME 11 EN PROGRAMME Wool Mix & Dry Rapid 40 Shirts Time Iron Dry Store Dry Hang Dry IDEAL FOR Leave clothes slightly damp to allow easier ironing.
