(see stacking kit) Suction pads (see stacking kit) Laundry preparation Check the state of your fabrics: If, after washing and before putting the laundry in the dryer, you notice stains, don't dry the stained items, because stains that are then ironed or dried in a dryer usually can't be removed. Refer to the instructions that most washing machine manuals give on removal of difficult stains and, most importantly, wash the items again. Check labels on fabrics: Normal drying Delicate drying Do not tumble dry Don't dry the following in your dryer: - plasticized fabrics; - chloro-fibres (eg. Termolactyl*) * registered trademark; - garments containing plastic foam, rubber or reinforcements that might become detached; - bulky items (duvets, quilts, etc. ); - laundry that hasn't been spun; - laundry that's been cleaned with inflammable chemical products. How to prepare laundry items: - close all zips and press studs; - remove loose buttons, broaches, clips; - do up belts, aprons strings, etc. ; - empty pockets. Loading the laundry Recommended volumes: To reduce creasing and optimise drying times we advise keeping within a maximum of 6 kg of cotton and 3 kg of synthetic/delicate fibres. - 6 kg of cotton corresponds to the volume of a full drum (items uncompressed); - 3 kg of synthetic/delicate fibres corresponds to the volume of a half drum; - 1, 5 kg of synthetic/delicate fibres corresponds to the volume of a quarter drum. Before the first drying cycle, clean the inside of the drum with a damp cloth to remove any dust that may have deposited.
