Do not tumble dry:
Woollens, silk, delicate fabrics, nylon stockings,
delicate embroidery, fabrics with metallic
decorations, garments with PVC or leather
trimmings, training shoes, bulky items such as
sleeping bags, etc.
Energy saving
Only put into the tumble dryer laundry which has
been thoroughly wrung or spin-dried. The drier
the laundry the shorter the drying time thus
saving electricity.
ALWAYS
●
Try to dry the maximum weight of laundry,
this will save time and electricity.
●
Check that the filter is clean before every
drying cycle.
NEVER
●
Exceed the maximum weight, this will waste
time and electricity.
●
Put dripping wet items into the tumble
dryer, this may damage the appliance.
