Sorting your laundry

Check symbols on clothing labels to make sure
that the articles can be tumble dried.

Sort laundry by fabric type.

Empty pockets and check buttons.

Close zippers and hooks and tie loose belts and
strings.

Wring out each item in order to eliminate as much
excess water as possible.

!

Do not load dripping wet clothes into the dryer.

Maximum load size

Do not load more than maximum capacity.
These numbers refer to dry weight:
Natural fibres:

6 kg max (13 lb)

Synthetic fibres: 3 kg max (6.6 lb)

!

DO NOT overload the dryer as this could result in

reduced drying performance.

At the end of a drying cycle, cottons could still be
damp if you grouped cottons and permanent press
items together. If this happens simply give them an
additional short period of drying.

Wash Care Labels

Look at the labels on your garments, especially when
tumble drying for the first time. The following symbols
are the most common:

May be tumble dried

Do

not

tumble dry

Tumble dry at high heat setting

Tumble dry at low heat setting

What not to tumble dry in your dryer:

Articles that contain rubber or rubber-like materials
or plastic film (pillows, cushions, or PVC rainwear),
any other flammable objects or objects that contain
flammable substances (towels soiled with hair spray).

Glass fibres (certain types of draperies).

Items which have been dry cleaned.

Items with the ITCL Code (

see Special clothing

items

) . These can be cleaned with special

at-home dry cleaning products. Follow instructions
carefully.

Large bulky items (quilts, sleeping bags, pillows,
cushions, large bedspreads etc). These expand
when drying and would prevent airflow through
the dryer.
