a the remaining moisture will then be distributed evenly.
Knitted fabrics (e.g. T-shirts, jerseys) often shrink slightly the first time they are tumble-dried.
a Do not select the Extra Dry programme.
Starched laundry is not always suitable for dryers a starch leaves behind a coating that
adversely affects the drying operation.
When washing laundry that is to be tumble-dried afterwards, dose the fabric softener

Tips for Steam Dry / Steam Refresh
Use your dryer for unwrinkling and refreshing fabrics.
Short spin cycle for reducing creasing.

a stains must be treated and removed
beforehand.
For best results, so that the laundry will have as few creases as possible, remove each item
immediately after the programme has finished and hang on a hanger to finish drying. Pull
clothes into shape if required.
Environmental protection/energy-saving tips
Before drying, spin the laundry thoroughly in the washing machine a the higher the spin
speed, the shorter the drying time will be (consumes less energy), also spin easy-care
laundry.
Use the maximum recommended capacity, but do not exceed it
apage 7, Programme overview.
Make sure the room is well ventilated during drying.
Clean the fluff filter after each drying cycle apage 4.
Keep the air cooler clean apage 6 Cleaning and care.
Keep the supply of cool air unobstructed
a Do not cover or block the cooling grill.
