SET THE TIME FOR AIR FLUFF AND TIMED

DRY PROGRAMMES

For the Air fluff programme and the Ti-

med dry programme, you can set the duration
by indexing forwards with the

button. The

selected time is shown in the display.

You can select times between 5 and 90 minu-

tes.

Try different drying times for yourself. Then

note the times that you find best for different
fabrics.

NOTE

When using the Timed dry programme, the gar-
ments may become “over-dry” if the set drying
time is too long. This can cause the fabrics to
shrink or crease and take on a rough feel. Synt-
hetic materials can also become charged with
static electricity. Try to find the suitable drying
time by selecting a shorter time on the first few
occasions.

SELECT AN OPTION

By selecting an option, you can obtain a
drying programme that is ideal for your

garments,

The machine will remember the settings and

options that you make for each programme and
will start with these (with one exception – De-
layed start) the next time you select the pro-
gramme concerned. Of course, you can then
make a further change if you wish.
