Sorting and preparing laundry

Sorting laundry

• Sort by fabric type:
• Cotton/linen for programmes in COTTONS programme group.
• Mixtures and synthetics for programmes in SYNTHETICS programme group.
• Sort by care label: The care labels mean:

Drying in the tumble dryer possible in principle
Drying at normal temperature
Drying at reduced temperature (press DELI-CATE button!)
Drying in the tumble dryer not possible

Important! Do not place in the appliance any wet laundry which is not specified on the care label as being suitable for tumble-drying.

This appliance can be used for all wet laundry items which are labelled as suitable for tumble-drying.

• Do not dry new, coloured textiles together with light-coloured laundry items. Textile colours may bleed.
• Do not dry cotton jersey and knitwear with the EXTRA programme. Items may shrink!
• Wool and wool-like textiles can be dried using the WOOL CARE programme.

Preparing laundry

• To avoid laundry becoming tangled: close zips, button up duvet covers and tie loose ties or ribbons (e.g. of aprons).
• Empty pockets. Remove metal items (paper clips, safety pins, etc).
• Turn items with double-layered fabrics inside out (e.g. with cotton-lined anoraks, the cotton layer should be outermost). These fabrics will then dry better.

Important! Do not overload the appliance. Observe max. loading volume.
