Drying rack

The drying rack offers the possibility of drying washable woollen fabrics and sports shoes. The drying rack does not turn with the clothes-dryer drum. This allows the drying of woollen garments or sports shoes.

When wet, the wool must be moved as little as possible because it tends to become matted, so drying rack is a solution. Sports shoes cannot be dry without rack otherwise can damage the drum due to their weight.

Drying hints

Before loading the laundry

Never tumble dry the following: Particularly delicate items such as net curtains, woollen, silk, fabrics with metal trim, nylon tights, bulky materials such as anoraks, blankets, eiderdowns, sleeping bags, feather quilts and any items containing rubber foam or materials similar to rubber foam.

• Always follow the instructions on gar-

ment labels:

may be tumble dried

normal drying (high temperature)

delicate drying (low temperature)

do not tumble dry

• Close pillowcases and covers with

fasteners to prevent small laundry items getting tangled inside them. Close press studs, zips and hooks and tie belts and apron strings.

• Sort laundry according to type and

degree of drying required.

• Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids

creasing and saves energy.

• Avoid drying dark clothes with light

coloured fluffy items such as towels as they could attract the fluff.

• The laundry must be thoroughly spun

before tumble drying.

EEaassyy--ccaarree iitteemms

•

should be briefly pre-spun before drying (depending on crease resistance approx. 30 seconds or using

, too, e.g. shirts,

the special brief spin programme of your washing machine).

• Knitted textiles (knitted underwear) may shrink a little during drying. Please do not overdry items of this type. It is advisable to allow for shrinkage when choosing the size of new purchases.

• You can also put starched items into your dryer. However, to achieve the desired starched effect, choose the programme “iron dry”. To remove any starch residues, wipe out the internal drum after drying with a moist cloth and then rub it dry.

• To avoid a static charge when drying is completed, use either a fabric softener when you are washing the laundry or a fabric conditioner specifically for tumble dryers.

• Remove the laundry when the dryer has finished drying.

• If individual items are still damp after drying, set a brief post-drying time,

aatt lleeaasstt 3300 mmiinnuuttees

but

. This will be necessary particularly for multilayered items (e.g. collars, pockets, etc.).

Do not dry wool in the dryer. May become entangled! After air-drying, wool may be dried with the WOOL CARE programme.

Make sure that no metal objects are left in the laundry (e.g. hair clips, safety pins, pins).

Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners, hooks and poppers. Tie any belts or long tapes.

Remove persistent stains before washing.

Rub particularly soiled areas with a special detergent or detergent paste.

Treat curtains with special care. Remove hooks or tie them up in a bag or net.

Recommended loads are indicated in the programme charts.

General rules: Cotton, linen: drum full but not too

tightly packed;

Synthetics: drum no more than half full; Delicate fabrics and woollens: drum

no more than one third full.

Try to load to the maximum capacity of the machine as small loads are uneconomical.

Objective

Adjusting the level of conductivity

Implementation

Water contains, a variable quantity of limestone and mineral salts of which quantities vary according to geographical locations thus varying its conductivity values.

Relevant variations of the conductivity of the water compared to those prefixed by the factory could slightly influence the residual humidity of the laundry at the end of the cycle. Your dryer allows you to regulate the sensitivity of the drying sensor based on conductivity values of the water by using the following procedure.

Cleaning the door

Clean periodically the interior part of the door to remove any fluff from the seals around the filter. Accurate cleaning ensures correct drying.

Cleaning the filters

Your dryer will only function well if the filters are clean.

emoving

The filter in the inner door must be removed for cleaning.

Do not be alarmed by the amount of fluff. It is not due to excessive wear caused by the dryer.

All fabric loses fluff when drying but it goes un-noticed in the air. In a tumble dryer it simply collects in the filter.

After a while, a withish patina due to detergent residue on laundry forms on the filters. When this occurs, clean the filters with warm water using a brush. Remove the filter in the door opening as per picture (it can be positioned with the tooth facing to the left or to the right).
