|CZ)I Materials suitable for tumble drying

For the best drying results, clothes should be sorted properly. Separate the lint shedders (chenille and terry cloth) from the lint collectors (synthetics, flannel and fabrics with a nap, such as velveteen and corduroy). Separate non*

coiorfast from light colored items, heavy fabrics from light weight fabrics and permanent press from heavy, bulky items.

Do not tumble dry

Read all permanent care labels carefully. If a garment's care label says "Drip dry", "Line Dry" or "Dry Flat", do not dry in the dryer. Certain matenals will melt or become dangerously flammable if heated, while others may lose their shape. Other items that should not be tumble dried are:

• Items that have been dry-cleaned at home.

• Wool (unless the garment's manufacturer recommends it)

• Fiberglass

• Laminated or rubber coated items

• Vinyl or plastic

• Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless

recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

Note: SAFETY Do not allow children to play on or In the appliance. Close supervision of

children is necessary when the appliance is used near children.

The program to be used depends on what is to be done with the washing after tumble-drying. Two automatic programs are provided: Extra dry and Dry. if washing is not to be dried completely, e.g. because it is to be ironed, it is a good idea to use the time program instead. Either of the operating temperatures (Low or Normal) is available with either of the automatic

programs or with the time program.

When you want extra dry fabrics

1. Extra dry

This automatic program is intended for use with washing that is extremeiy difficult to dry, e.g. jeans with very thick seams. The heat is turned off when the washing is completely dry, and is followed by a cooling period of about 15 minutes.

When you want dry fabrics

2. Dry

This program turns off the heat when the washing is dry, but not absolutely bone-dry. It is then cooled for about 15 minutes.

When you want to Iron

3. Timed program

The timed program can be set for any desired heating time up to one hour. At the end of the preset time, the washing is cooled for about 15 minutes.

Drying time depends on

Turn the program knob clockwise to the required program.

A program can be stopped at any time by turning the knob to the 0 position.

When you want to air fabfabrics

4. Airing program cold

This program cannot be combing with heating. It is used to shake the dust out of garment, air them or soften them up.

If the washing is not dry

When using the automatic programs, it can happen that not all of the washing is properly dry. This may be due to such reasons as very

heavy fabrics or thick seams. To dry these items, give a further period of drying in the timed program for aboutIO

minutes. Also do not overload the dryer. If a dryer is overloaded, its efficiency is

lessened and clothes may not dry evenly.

Do not over-dry

When using the timed program, it is possible to over-dry fabrics, if too long a time has been set. This can cause the fabrics to wrinkle, shrink, or feel harsh. Synthetic materials can also become charged with static electricity.

Single items

Use the timed program

when there is only one item to be dried. This is because the autcxnatic program may turn off the heating too early, so that the item is not properly dried.

Dryer added fabric softeners

Because some dryer added fabric softeners may cause damage to automatic dryers, use only ones that the manufacturers give a written assurance that their softener can safely be used in your dryer.

Permanent press hints

For the most wrinkle free permanent press drying, only dry one half load at a time to assure errough room for items t|> tumble freely. Do not combine permanent press items with other very heavy clothes in the dryer. Remove clothes immediately after the drying cycle is completed and either hang them up or lay them flat.
