Energy savings

There are various steps you can take to avoid unnecessarily long drying times and high energy consumption:

• Make sure your laundry is spun at the maximum spin speed before drying.
• Load according to the optimum amount of laundry recommended for the drying program. This will mean that the energy consumption for the amount of laundry is at its most economical.
• Clean the lint filters after every drying cycle.
• Make sure the room temperature is not too high. If there are other heat-producing appli-ances in the room in which the tumble dryer is located, make sure the room is well ventilated and switch the other appli-ances off.

Drying

Preparing the laundry

Damage due to foreign objects which were not re-moved from the laundry. Foreign objects can melt, burn, or explode.

• Ensure that any foreign objects (e.g., detergent dis-pensing balls, loose bra wires, lighters) have been re-moved from the laundry.
• Fasten duvet covers and pillow cases to prevent small items from being rolled up inside them.

Loading the tumble dryer Do not overload the drum. Overloading can give a disap-pointing drying result and cause unnecessary wear and tear to the laundry. It can also cause more creasing.

• Loosen the laundry.

• Open the tumble-dryer door.

• Check that the drum is empty.

• Load the laundry in the drum.

• Insert the fragrance flacon.
  If you are drying without a fra-grance flacon, close both sock-ets. Push the tabs on both covers to the bottom (see arrows).

• Shut the tumble-dryer door gen-tly.
