DRAINAGE SYSTEM The 6 kg cotton programmes are made for matching a 6 kg washed load of cotton spun at more than 1000 rpm. With a 6 kg load spun at lower speed than 1000 rpm, we recommend to connect your dryer to an external drainage hose for direct water drainage to avoid water container emptying. This is also valid for testing according the standard IEC/EN 61121.
