Separate drying
The separate drying programme
should be run if the load in the wash
programme is greater than the
maximum load permitted for drying, or
if you only want to dry part of the load
that was washed.
1. Preparing the laundry
Sorting the laundry
Sort the laundry according to type of
fibre/weave, size, garment care label
symbol, and the drying level required.
This will help you to achieve an even
drying result.
Before drying, check the drying
symbol on the care label.
If there is no care label, the article
should only be tumble dried in a
programme specially designed for it.
Tips on drying
– Do not load the drum with items that
are still soaking wet. Spin the laundry
for at least 30 seconds after washing.
– Woollens and wool blends are
susceptible to becoming matted or
shrinking. Only use the Woollens
programme for these textiles.
– Pure linen should only be tumble
dried if it is specified as suitable on
the care label. The surface of the
fabric may otherwise become rough.
– Loopknit garments (e.g. T-Shirts,
underwear) have a tendency to shrink
after the first wash. Do not overdry
these fabrics to prevent further
shrinking. When buying loopknit
garments, it is advisable to take their
shrinkage potential into account.
– Starched laundry can be tumble
dried. To achieve the usual finish,
double the amount of starch should
be used.
– New dark coloured garments should
be washed and dried separately from
light coloured garments. Their colour
might run and discolour other
garments, and dark coloured fibres
can settle on light coloured garments
and vice versa.
– Observe the maximum loads given
for the drying programmes in the
Programme chart.
The drying result and amount of
creasing depend on the size of the
load. The smaller the load in the dryer
the better the result. Therefore, if you
reduce the load, you will achieve a
more even drying result with less
creasing.
