Drying symbols on garment labels
Always look at the garment label to check whether garments can be
machine dried.
The following symbols refer to drying:
Machine drying is usually possible
Normal drying (normal temperature)
Gentle drying (reduced temperature)
Do not machine dry
Duration of the drying cycle
The drying time can vary according to
• the final spin speed;
• the required degree of drying (extra dry, only for cottons, store dry or
iron dry);
• the type of laundry;
• the size of load.
The usual drying times are indicated in the programme chart. As you
become more familiar with the appliance, you will discover the drying
times that best suit your needs according to the various type of fabric.
It is a good idea to make a note of these times.
The drying time cannot be modified when a drying programme is run-
ning.
Fibre residue
After drying fluffy fabrics, such as new towels, it is advisable to perform
the rinse cycle to be sure that any residue that may remain in the tub
is completely removed and does not stick to garments dried afterwards.
After each drying cycle the filter should be checked and cleaned.
