5. USING THE APPLIANCE FOR DRYING
5.1 GENERAL
During drying cycles, the water tap must be turned on and the drain hose correctly positioned.
This appliance can be set to perform wash only, dry only and wash-and-dry programmes.
In the wash-and-dry programme, the appliance switches from washing to drying automatically, with no need to use
the controls (at the end of the wash) to obtain the complete cycle.
Attention
Only dry laundry or garments washed in an aqueous solution and suitable for tumble drying.
Do not dry fabrics which have been dry cleaned or had stains removed with chemical solvents, wool or
wool blend fabrics which will be shrunk by the heat, very delicate fabrics such as silk and synthetic curtains,
fabrics which may easily lose threads such as woollen yarn, padding and loose-pile mats, or articles which
contain foam rubber or similar elastomers.
Loads of laundry placed in the washer-dryer for drying must not exceed 4 Kg in weight. The washer-
dryer is constructed to give the best results with loads which do not exceed 4 kg of dry weight of laundry.
When washing programmes for resistant fabrics are set, drying automatically takes place at 90°C (normal
drying).
In washing programmes for delicate fabrics, drying automatically takes place at 60°C (gentle drying).
Therefore, in automatic wash-and-dry programmes, the drying programme will depend on the washing
programme selected.
In drying only programmes, the laundry must first have been washed and spun-dried.
After drying particularly fluffy items such as new terry towels, the "Rinse" program should be carried out
to ensure that any deposits left by the fabric are removed, and are not deposited on the clothes in the
next wash.
Important – Do not dry delicate fabrics that will not withstand a temperature of 60°C or any fabrics which will not
withstand the selected temperature.
5.1.1 EXTRA DRYING
If the laundry is still too damp at the end of the programme, set a short timed drying programme.
Warning!: do not over-dry as this may cause creases or shrinkage of garments.
