Sorting laundry
• Sort by fabric type:
– Cotton/linen for programmes in Cottons
(Baumwolle) programme group.
– Mixtures and synthetics for programmes in
Easy care (Mischgewebe) programme group.
• Sort by care label: The care labels mean:
Drying in the tumble dryer possible in
principle
Drying at normal temperature
Drying at reduced temperature
Drying in the tumble dryer not possible
Important! Do not place in the appliance any wet
laundry which is not specified on the care label as
being suitable for tumble-drying.
This appliance can be used for all wet laundry
items which are labelled as suitable for tumble-
drying.
• Do not dry new, coloured textiles together with
light-coloured laundry items. Textile colours may
bleed.
• Do not dry cotton jersey and knitwear with the
Extra programme. Items may shrink!
• Wool and wool-like textiles can be dried using
the Wool (Wolle) programme. Before the drying
cycle spin the woollen textiles as well as possible
(max. 1200 rpm). Only dry woollen textiles to-
gether of similar or the same material, colour and
weight. Please dry heavy laundry items made of
wool separately.
Preparing laundry
• To avoid laundry becoming tangled: close zips,
button up duvet covers and tie loose ties or rib-
bons (e.g. of aprons).
• Empty pockets. Remove metal items (paper
clips, safety pins, etc).
• Turn items with double-layered fabrics inside out
(e.g. with cotton-lined anoraks, the cotton layer
should be outermost). These fabrics will then dry
better.
Important! Do not overload the appliance.
