Below are the most commonly used symbols: May be tumble dried. Tumble dry – low heat. EN Items not suitable for tumble drying: • Items containing rubber parts or similar materials, or plastic film covering (pillows, cushions or PVC sports jackets), any type of inflammable object or objects containing inflammable substances (used towels containing hairspray). • Glass fibres (certain types of draperies). • Items which have been previously dry cleaned. • Items marked with the ITLC symbol (“Special garments”) , which may be washed using special household products. • Large bulky items (duvets, sleeping bags, pillows, cushions, large bedcovers, etc. ) that expand when dried and hamper air circulation inside the tumble dryer. When mixing synthetic fibres with cotton garments, the latter may still be damp at the end of the drying cycle. If this happens, simply put them through a short drying cycle. 11 EN Special garments Blankets and bedcovers: acrylic items (Acilian, Courtelle, Orion, Dralon) must be dried with great care at low heat. Creased or pleated garments: read the drying instructions supplied by the manufacturer. Starched garments: do not dry together with non-starched items. Remove the maximum amount of starch solution possible before placing these items in the dryer. Do not over-dry: starch turns powdery leaving garments limp – this defeats its purpose. • Amount of laundry: single items and small loads may take longer to dry. • Drying: if items are to be ironed, they can be removed from the dryer while still slightly damp. Items that require complete drying can be left longer. • Temperature of the room: the lower the temperature of the room, the longer it will take for the dryer to dry clothing. • Bulk: certain bulky items require special care during the drying process. We suggest removing these items and replacing them in the dryer once they have been shaken out: repeat this procedure several times during the course of the drying cycle. All fabrics contain natural dampness which helps to keep them soft and fluffy. The drying times provided refer to the automatic Cupboard dry programmes.
