Easy Iron Programme ‘Easy Iron’ is a short 10 minute programme (8 minutes of heat followed by a 2 minute cool tumble period) which fluffs the fibres of clothing that have been left in the same position/location for an extended period of time. The cycle relaxes the fibres and makes them easier to iron and fold. €Easy Iron’ is not a drying programme and should not be used for wet articles of clothing. Do not load more than the maximum capacity. These numbers refer to the dry weight: Fabric Maximum load Cotton and Cotton mixtures 2. Unload the dryer immediately after the end of the programme, hang, fold or iron the articles and put them away in the closet. Should this not be possible repeat the programme.
