Environmental protection tips
• Your laundry will become light and soft in the tumble dryer even with-
out a fabric softening agent.
• Loosen your laundry before loading it into the dryer. This helps to pre-
vent lengthy running times and creasing. Ensure your laundry is well
spun.
• Remove as much water as possible from the washing before drying!
This is based on the principle: the better you spin the washing before
drying the more economical the dryer is.
In the following table we give an overview of specific electric con-
sumption data depending on the spinning speed. This information is
valid for 5kg laundry dried with the program COTTONS CUPBOARD DRY
(KATOEN KAST-DROOG):
• Never obstruct the ventilation slits at the base of the dryer!
• Ensure that the room is well ventilated!
• Observe the maximum load instructions. Whenever possible, dry full
loads.
