ENERGY SAVING TIPS
To save energy, time and money, Bosch recommends
the following:
l Always spin dry the laundry in the washer at the
highest recommended speed for the fabric type.
The highest spin speed will result in a dryer load and
shorten the drying time and amount of energy
required to dry the load.
l Spin dry delicate washing before tumble drying.
l Load the dryer properly. Do not exceed the maximum
load (see CYCLE SELECTION CHART).
l Always clean the lint filter after each use of the dryer.
OPERATING TIPS
l Follow the fabric care labels on the clothing.
l Avoid very small loads. When only one or two items
need drying, add a few similar items to improve
drying efficiency.
l Do not mix heavyweight and lightweight clothing.
l Do not dry wool or fabrics with a wool content
l Do not dry fabrics that do not allow the free passage
of air (for example, GORETEX)
l Do not dry delicate fabrics such as, silk, synthetic net
curtains, etc.
BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
Before beginning to use your dryer for the first
time:
1. Check to make sure that the voltage on
which the dryer is to operate is the same as
shown on the rating plate.
2. Wipe the interior of the drum with a damp cloth.
3. Thoroughly inspect the dryer for cosmetic damage.
