Special items

Blankets and bedcovers: acrylic items (Acilian, Courtelle,
Orion, Dralon) must be dried with great care at low heat.
Avoid drying for long periods.

Creased or pleated garments: read the drying instructions
supplied by the manufacturer.

Starched garments: do not dry together with non-
starched items. Remove the maximum amount of starch
solution possible before placing these items in the dryer. Do
not over-dry: starch turns powdery leaving garments limp –
this defeats its purpose.

Drying times

Drying times are approximate and may vary depending on
the following:

• Amount of water retained by items after the spin cycle:

towels and delicate items retain a lot of water.

• Fabrics: items of the same fabric, but with different texture

and thickness may have different drying times.

• Amount of laundry: single items and small loads may take

longer to dry.

• Drying: if items are to be ironed, they can be removed

from the dryer while still slightly damp. Items that require
complete drying can be left longer.

• Heat setting.

• Temperature of the room: the lower the temperature of

the room, the longer it will take for the dryer to dry
clothing.

• Bulk: certain bulky items require special care during the

drying process. We suggest removing these items and
replacing them in the dryer once they have been shaken
out: repeat this procedure several times during the course
of the drying cycle.



Do not over-dry items.

All fabrics contain natural dampness which helps to keep
them soft and fluffy.

The drying times provided refer to the automatic Cupboard
dry programmes. The weight refers to dry items.
