Special Programmes

Easy Iron Programme
Easy Iron is a short 10 minute programme (8 minutes of heat followed by a 2 minutes cool tumble period) which fluffs the fibres of
clothing that has been left in the same position/location for an extended period of time. The cycle relaxes the fibres and makes them
easier to iron and fold.
!
Easy Iron is not a drying programme and should not be used for wet articles of clothing.
For best results:
1. Do not load more than maximum capacity. These numbers refer to dry weight:
Fabric:
Cotton and Cotton mix
Synthetics
Denim
2. Unload the dryer immediately after the end of the drying cycle, hang, fold or iron the articles and put them away in the closet.
Should this not be possible, repeat the cycle.
The Easy Iron effect varies from one fabric to the next. It works very well on traditional fabrics like Cotton or Cotton mix, and less
well on acrylic fibres and on materials such as Tencel.®
Wool Programme
• This is a programme for tumble dryer safe garments marked with the symbol
• It can be used for load sizes up to 1 kg (approximately 3 sweaters).
• We recommend that garments are turned inside out before drying.
• This programme will take about 60 minutes, but may take longer depending on the size and density of the load and the
spin speed used in your washer.
• Loads dried using this programme are usually ready to wear, but on some heavier garments the edges may be slightly
damp. Allow these to dry naturally as over-drying could damage garments.
!
Unlike other materials, the mechanism of wool shrinkage is irreversible; i.e. it will not stretch back to original size and shape.
!
This program is not suitable for Acrylic garments.
Jeans
• This is a programme for Jeans made from Denim Cotton. Before drying your Jeans turn the front pockets inside out.
• It can be used for load sizes up to 3 kg (approximately 4 pairs).
• It can also be used on other garments made from same material such as jackets.
• The duration of this programme will depend on the size of the load, the dryness setting selected and the spin speed used in
your washer.
• Loads dried using this programme are usually ready to wear; the edges or seams may be slightly damp. If this is found try turning
the jeans inside out and running the programme again for a short period.
• Use this cycle only for a 100% cotton load, do not mix dark and light coloured items. Do not use this cycle for garments with
embroidery and accessories (pins,...), turn the pockets insideout
!
We do not recommend that you use this programme if your jeans have elastic waist bands or embroidery.
