Drying symbols on garment labels
Always look at the garment label to check whether garments can be
machine dried.
The following symbols refer to drying:
Machine drying is usually possible
Normal drying (normal temperature)
Gentle drying (reduced temperature)
Do not machine dry
Duration of the drying cycle
The drying time can vary according to
• the final spin speed;
• the required degree of drying (store dry or iron dry);
• the type of laundry;
• the size of load.
The usual drying times are indicated in the programme chart. As you
become more familiar with the appliance, you will discover the drying
times that best suit your needs according to the various type of fabric.
It is a good idea to make a note of these times.
Modification of the drying time or degree of drying
If you wish to modify the drying time or degree of drying when a drying
programme is running, first depress START/PAUSE button to set the machine
to PAUSE. After modifying the time or degree, depress START/PAUSE
again to continue the programme.
Fibre residue
After drying fluffy fabrics, such as new towels, it is advisable to perform
the RINSE programme “A” to be sure that any residue that may remain
in the tub is completely removed and does not stick to garments dried
afterwards.
After each drying cycle the filter should be checked and cleaned.
