[. . . ] 1 Installation EN Where to install the tumble dryer • Install the dryer far from gas ranges, stoves, radiators or hobs, as flames may damage it. If the dryer is installed below a worktop, ensure there are 10 mm between the upper panel of the dryer and any objects above it, and 15 mm between the sides 15 mm 15 mm of the machine and the walls or furniture units adjacent to it. Make sure the air inlets on the rear panel are not blocked or obstructed. €¢ You should also make sure that the room in which the tumble dryer is installed is not damp, and that it is adequately ventilated. [. . . ] Fabric Cottons – high heat Synthetics – high heat Acrylics – low heat Load 1 kg 20 - 30 minutes 20 - 30 minutes 25 - 40 minutes 2 kg 35 - 45 minutes 35 - 45 minutes 40 - 60 minutes 3 kg 45 - 60 minutes 45 - 60 minutes 4 kg 60 - 70 minutes 5 kg 70 - 80 minutes 6 kg 80 - 100 minutes - Drying times are approximate and may vary depending on the following: • • • • Amount of water retained by items after the spin cycle: towels and delicate items retain a lot of water. Fabrics: items of the same fabric, but with different texture and thickness may have different drying times. Amount of laundry: single items and small loads will take a short time 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. Drying programmes and options Refresh A short programme suitable for refreshing fibres and garments through the emission of cool air.
