Sorting your laundry

Maximum
load size
Typical load
1. Always separate laundry into the correct fabric groups before
washing and drying.
2. See that all zips are closed, hooks and eyes are fastened and
belt, strings etc. are tied loosely in bows. You will normally have
done this for each item before the washing stage.
3. It is important to extract as much water as possible from each
item before drying. This saves you time and money.
WARNING:
CLOTHES SHOULD NEVER BE LOADED DRIPPING WET
4. Make sure that the items to be dried are suitable for tumble
drying, or are not of a type requiring 'special attention' (see the
"Wash Care Labels" section).
Your dryer will hold a load of 13lbs (6kg) dry weight of natural fabrics.
if you are drying items of man-made fibers (synthetics or acrylics), the
maximum load should not exceed 6.6lbs (3kg) dry weight.
This difference is that man-made fibers require more space to tumble-
dry without creasing.
WARNING:
DO NOT OVERLOAD AS THIS COULD RESULT IN REDUCED
DRYING PERFORMANCE AND A POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD.
To help you estimate how many items it takes to make up a drying
load, the charts below show the approximate weights of some
everyday laundry items.

If you combine small cotton or terry-cloth towel items with a synthetic
fabric load they could be damp at the end of the drying cycle. If this
happens simply give them an additional short period of drying to
finish them.
