DRYING HINTS

Preparing the drying cycle

As a dryer, the appliance works on the condensation principle.

Therefore, the water tap must be open and the drain hose must drain water into a sink

or into the drain pipe, even during the drying cycle.

Attention!

Before starting the drying programme, reduce the loads of washed laundry, in order to ob-

tain good performances.

Laundry not suitable for drying

• Particularly delicate items such as synthetic curtains, woollen and silk, garments with

metal inserts, nylon stockings, bulky garments such as anoraks, bed covers, quilts, sleep-

ing bags and duvets must not be machine dried.

• Avoid drying dark clothes with light coloured fluffy items such as towels as these can

attract the fluff.

• Remove the laundry when the appliance has finished drying.

• To avoid a static charge when drying is completed, use either a fabric softener when you

are washing the laundry or a fabric conditioner specifically for tumble dryers.

• Garments padded with foam-rubber or materials similar to foam-rubber must not be

machine dried; they represent a fire hazard.

• Also, fabrics containing residue of setting lotions or hair sprays, nail solvents or similar

solutions must not be machine dried in order to avoid the formation of harmful vapours.

The detergent and any additives must be placed in the appropriate compartments of the

dispenser drawer before starting the wash programme.

If using liquid detergents, a programme without prewash must be selected.

Your appliance incorporates a re-circulation system which allows an optimal use of the

concentrated detergent.

Follow the product manufacturer’s recommendations on quantities to use and do not ex-

ceed the «MAX» mark in the detergent dispenser drawer.

Garment labels

For drying, follow the indications given on the manufacturer’s labels:
