Notes on shrinking
Some clothes will shrink simply from drying after getting wet or washed, and using a dryer can shrink the clothes
further.
z
Clothes do not usually shrink further after the first washing and drying operation.
To reduce shrinking
Items that shrink easily
Items that do not shrink easily
z
The degree of shrinking depends on the materials, fabric, stitching, and
processing of the item.
(Example: Ribbed wool or cotton sweaters shrink easily.)
Sweaters
Wool sweaters,
skirts, etc.
Socks made of chemical
fiber mixtures, etc.
Cotton or mixed
fabric items, etc.
Polyester items,
etc.
Sports socks
Shirts
Blouses
z
Before drying, check the
washing instructions and
textile labels on the clothes.
z
Use the
[POWER SAVE STATIC DRY]
program for items with dry-
clean labels.
z
Dry laundry in the sun
beforehand. (You can finish
drying using the dryer.)
To remove pollen
z
Run the <<DRY>> > [FUZZY] program for 15 minutes.
z
Keep the drying load under 2 k
g
. (The effect will be reduced with loads larger than 2 k
g
.)
z
Do not run the operation for laundry that cannot be dried.
(P. 18)
Notes on the [SILENT] program
z
The fan rotation speed is lowered for quieter
operation. The heater also operates at a lower
level.
(The operation time is longer than that of the
[FUZZY] program, and more wrinkles will
result.)
Notes on the [POWER SAVE] program
z
Laundry is dried without using the heater. (The operation
time is longer than that of the [FUZZY] program.)
When the [POWER SAVE] program is selected, you cannot
change the dehumidification mode to Water Cooling
Mode. The heater may be used if the ambient temperature
is low.
