Drying tips – To ensure a consistent result, sort the laundry by fabric type and drying programme. – Always dry very small fabrics (e.g. baby socks) together with large items of laundry (e.g. hand towels). – Fasten zips, hooks and eyelets, button covers and tie together cloth belts, bands, etc. – Do not overdry easy-care laundry � risk of creasing Allow laundry to finish drying in the air. – Do not iron laundry immediately after drying, fold items up and leave for a while � the remaining moisture will then be distributed evenly. – Knitted fabrics (e.g. T-shirts, jerseys) often shrink slightly the first time they are tumble-dried. � Do not use the Cupbord Dry Plus �+ programme. – Starched laundry is not always suitable for dryers � starch leaves behind a coating that adversely affects the drying operation. – When washing the laundry that is to be tumble-dried, measure the fabric softener in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. – Using a timer programme with a small laundry load � optimisation of the drying result. Environmental protection / Energy-saving tips – Before drying, spin the laundry thoroughly in the washing machine � the higher the spin speed, the shorter the drying time will be (consumes less energy), also spin easy-care laundry. – Use the maximum recommended fill level but do not overload with laundry � overview of programmes, page 7. – Make sure the room is well ventilated during drying. – Clean the fluff filter after every drying cycle � page 4.
