laundry by fabric type and desired level of
dryness.
Dry at normal temperature
Dry at low temperature

on every household appliance and the end
consumer charged directly. This is mandatory
under Swiss law.
The advance recycling fee (vRG)
The advance recycling fee is already contained within the price of a new machine.

Preparing the laundry
►
Do up all zips, hooks and eyes.
►
Button up duvet covers and pillowcases.
Tie together loose belts, apron strings
etc.
Drying the laundry
►
Remove easy care laundry from the
dryer in a slightly damp state if possible (Slightly dry) and allow to finish
drying in the air. Over drying causes
creases.
►
Laundry which is still too damp after
drying a load of widely varying fabrics
can be dried further using the programme Time drying.
►
Knitted fabrics, e.g. jersey underwear,
can shrink slightly during drying. Do not
use the Extra Dry programmes for
these fabrics.
►
Only dry delicate fabrics, such as silk and
synthetic curtains, with the appropriate
special programme (risk of creasing).
►
For drying single pieces of laundry
select the programme option Express
or a Timed drying programme.
Environmentally
compatible drying
Notice
Wringing wet laundry: waste of energy!
►
Remove as much water as possible from
the laundry before drying by spinning in
a washing machine or spin dryer.
The higher the spin speed, the shorter
the drying time and lower the energy
consumption.
►
You should also spin easy care laundry.
Notice
Overfilling affects the drying result and
severely creases the laundry.
►
Do not exceed the maximum load.
Small loads are uneconomical and
result in increased wear of laundry and
machine.
►
If possible, always load the dryer with
the maximum load.
Observe before first use
►
Install the machine according to the
installation instructions.
►
Wipe the inside of the drum with a
damp cloth.
