ADVICE AND TIPS BEFORE YOU TUMBLE-DRY

Here are some tips that may help you before you begin
tumble-drying.

HAVE THE CLOTHES BEEN SPUN?

Items to be tumble-dried should be spun at 1000 rpm
or faster. Higher spin speeds save energy and reduce
drying time.

MATERIALS THAT CAN BE TUMBLE­DRIED

This symbol means that the material is suitable for

tumble- drying. Fabrics best suited to tumble-drying are
cotton fabrics, terry cloth and synthetic fi bres. Garments
will be softer and lighter when tumbled than when hung
out to dry.

NOTE!

The tumble dryer does not cause any signifi cant wear
on fabrics. The lint that collects in the lint fi lter consists
of dust and fi bre residues formed when the items are
used.

MATERIALS THAT MUST NOT BE
TUMBLE-DRIED

This symbol means that the material is not suitable

for tumble-drying. Certain materials may melt or become
a fi re hazard if exposed to heat, and others can lose their
shape or shrink.

STATIC ELECTRICITY

To reduce the risk of static electricity in the laundry after
tumble drying you can:

• Use fabric softener when washing.

• Wait fi ve minutes after the drying program ends
before opening the door and removing the laundry
from the dryer.

NOTE!

You can stop the tumble dryer by pressing the Stop
button for three seconds or by opening the door. In
both cases the programme is stopped and starts from
the beginning if restarted. If you do not want to restart
the programme then immediately remove all laundry
and spread it out to allow the heat to dissipate.

And do not tumble-dry:

• materials labelled ”Do not dry near heat”.

• garments that have been dry-cleaned at home.

• plastic foam.

• fi breglass material.

• wool must not be tumble-dried because of the risk of
felting.

TUMBLE DRYING

Below are step-by-step instructions to help you achieve
the best possible tumble-drying results.

SORT YOUR FABRICS

You will achieve the most uniform drying results if the
items are made of the same type of material. Do up zips
and buttons, fasten belts, sort the items and adjust the
load and temperature.

NOTE!

Do not overload the drum!
Overloading the dryer will result in poor drying results
and wrinkling.

SELECT THE PROGRAMME

Programme selector Display window

Press the main power switch until the display lights.
Open the door, load the items and then close the door.

NOTE!

Make sure that objects e.g. detergent dispensing balls,
have been removed from the laundry. They could melt
and cause damage to the dryer or the laundry.

NOTE!

To save energy, always observe the maximum load for
each program (see Program chart).

Main power switch Options buttons Start Stop

Select a programme by turning the programme selector. The selected programme is shown in the display window.
Use the option buttons to select any options.

Guidelines as to what specifi c programmes can be used
for:

Auto heavy

This program is for items that are particularly diffi cult to
dry.

NOTE!

Knitted fabrics in particular are prone to shrinkage.
Use the Auto heavy, Auto normal dry or Auto Iron dry
programs for these items. Stretch clothes back into
shape immediately after drying.

Synthetics

Gentle program for synthetics. Delayed Start can be
selected as an option.

Terry towels

Program intended for large and small loads of thick terry
cloth, such as towels and bathrobes.

Down

Gentle program that dries down items completely. Can
be used to dry up to three pillows or one quilt.

Timed dry

Auto dry and Auto delicate

These programmes end automatically when the load is
dry. The Auto dry programme gives slightly drier laundry
than Auto normal dry.

Auto Iron dry

This programme shuts off the heat once the load is just
damp enough for ironing or pressing.

Jeans

Program for jeans and clothing with very thick seams.
Delayed Start can be selected as an option.

The most suitable program time depends on what you
intend to do with the items after tumble-drying them. Use
trial and error to fi nd out what works best. When you use
Timed dry to tumble-dry a load of mixed fabrics, some of
the garments may remain damp. Tumble-dry any damp
garments for a further 30 minutes or so using the Timed
dry program. Select the program time by pressing the +
and - buttons. A program time between 30 minutes and
3 hours can be selected and each button press changes
the time by 15 minutes.

10

Customer Care Center, 1-800-898-1879, www.askousa.com

TUMBLE DRYING

NOTE!

When using the Timed dry program with a program
time that is too long, the garments can become “over­dry”. This can cause items to shrink or crease and
feel rough to the touch. Synthetic materials can also
become charged with static electricity.

Revitalise

Use the Air fl uff program when you just want to refresh,
air or soften up items. Select the program time by
pressing the + and - buttons. A program time between
15 minutes and 3 hours can be selected and each button
press changes the time by 15 minutes.

SELECTING OPTIONS

By selecting options, you can tailor a drying programme
to suit your requirements. The available options depend
on the selected programme. Once you have started the
programme, the options you selected are saved for the
next time you use the same programme. The exception
is option Delayed Start, which is not saved for the next
time.

Energy Save

You can select Energy Save with all programmes except
Revitalise and Timed dry.

• Select Energy save by pressing the button under the
symbol.

• The symbol lights when the option Energy save is
selected.

• Select Anti crease by pressing the button under the
symbol.

• The symbol lights when Anti crease is selected.

Delayed Start

First select which programme you want to use and
then select Delayed Start by pressing the + button. The
display shows Delayed Start in whole hours. Press the +
/ - button to select a delayed start of 1 to 24 hours. The
symbol for Delayed Start lights next to the number of
hours. Press the Start button and the machine counts
down 1 hour at a time and starts after the selected delay.
This option cannot be used with Timed dry or Revitalise.

PRESS THE START BUTTON

An estimate of the remaining drying time will be shown
on the display a few minutes after the drying programme
starts. For example, 1:35 means that it will take
approximately 1 hour and 35 minutes for the load to dry.
If the option.Anti crease has been selected, the drum will
rotate for three seconds per minute for two hours after
the programme is fi nished. The actual remaining time
may be longer than the estimated time shown on the
display. The remaining time is then shown as 0:15 until
the load is suffi ciently dry. If you selected Time Saver the
display will show 0:05 instead. You can stop the tumble
dryer by pressing the Stop button for three seconds or
by opening the door. In both cases the programme is
stopped and starts from the beginning if restarted.

NOTE!

The programme will not be aff ected if you change the
programme selector after the programme has started.

Time saver

You can select Time saver with all programmes except
Revitalise. The programme is shortened by about 12
minutes.

• Press the button under the symbol.

• The symbol lights when Time saver is selected.

Anti crease

This option means that the drum will rotate for three
seconds per minute for two hours after the drying
programme has fi nished. This option prevents items
from remaining in the same position and becoming
creased if you are unable to remove them immediately
after tumble-drying has fi nished. Cannot be selected
