The Cottons Cupboard Dry pro-
gramme (denoted by the arrow sym-
bol) is suitable for drying cotton laun-
dry with a normal dampness level,
and is the most efficient programme
for drying damp cotton laundry in
terms of combined energy consump-
tion. The consumption values for this
programme that are declared on the
energy label refer to a moisture con-
tent of the laundry of 60%.
The values specified for other pro-
grammes are indicative only and
were determined in accordance with
the applicable standard EN61121.
The actual values may deviate from
the indicated values depending on
the type of fabric, composition of
laundry to be dried, residual moisture
in the fabric, set degree of dryness,
amount of laundry being loaded, en-
vironmental conditions and the activ-
ation of additional functions.
The expected programme dura-
tion/"Ready in" time that is shown on
the appliance display when selecting
the programme is based on the spin
speed in the washing machine of

livered.
