Program chart
Which program should I use?
Timed drying
This program chart is designed to help you dry your laundry correctly. The program/timer knob has two
different sections, each with its own drying temperature and time scale:
is used to represent cotton. Here you can set the dryer for up to 120 minutes, because cotton
and thick non-synthetic fabrics need longer to dry.
is used to represent synthetic fabrics and delicate items. Because these are more sensitive than
cotton, they need a lower drying temperature. Here you can set the dryer for up to 80 minutes.
Do not overdry your laundry. It can make it difficult to iron, and harsher to the touch, besides wasting
energy. During the last 8-12 minutes of each program, the load is cooled to reduce the risk of creasing.
