Sorting and preparing laundry
Sorting laundry
• Sort by fabric type:
– Cotton/linen for programmes in KATOEN (cottons) programme group.
– Mixtures and SYNTHETISCH (synthetics) for programmes in SYNTHETISCH (synthetics)
programme group.
• Sorting by care label. The care labels mean:
Drying in the tumble
dryer possible in prin-
ciple
Dry at normal tem-
perature
Dry at reduced tem-
perature (press DELI-
CAAT (delicate) but-
ton!)
Drying in the tumble
dryer not possible
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 DROOG programme. Items may
shrink!
• Wool can be dried only by special programme WOL (wool care) !
Preparing laundry
• To avoid laundry becoming tangled: close zips, button up duvet covers and tie loose ties
or ribbons (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.
