Special clothing items

GB
Blankets and bedspreads: acrylic items (Acilian, Courtelle,
Orion, Dralon) must be dried with special care on a low heat
setting. Avoid drying for a long period of time.
Pleated or creased garments: read manufacturer drying
instructions on the garment.
Starched articles: do not dry these items with nonstarched
items. Make sure that as much of the starch solution is
removed from the load as possible before placing it in the
dryer. Do not over-dry: the starch will become powdery
and leave your clothing limp, which defeats the purpose of
starch.

Drying times

Times are approximate and can vary depending upon:
• Amount of water retained in clothes after spin cycle:
towels and delicates retain a lot of water.
• Fabrics: items that have the same type of fabric but
different textures and thicknesses may not have the
same drying times.
• Quantity of laundry: single items or small loads may
take longer to dry.

• Dryness: if you are going to iron some of your clothes,
they can be taken out while still a bit damp. Others can
be left longer if you need them to be completely dry.
• Heat setting.
• Room temperature: if the room where the dryer is
located is cold, it will take longer for the dryer to dry your
clothes.
• Bulk: some bulky items can be tumble dried with care.
We suggest that you remove these items several times,
shake them out, and return them to the dryer until finished.
!
Do not over-dry your clothes.
All fabrics contain a little natural moisture, which keeps them
soft and fluffy.
The table below presents APPROXIMATE drying times:
