Why does iron dry leave a different finish from storage drying?

Iron-dry programmes are intended to prepare suitable laundry for a further ironing step, so their endpoint can be intentionally less dry than a storage target.

Understanding this situation

A customer expecting immediately foldable dry clothes can mistake this for a machine fault. Check the exact target and garment permissions, especially if a previous user's setting remained selected.

A useful next step

Choose the target appropriate to the planned care step. If the machine consistently misses its documented finish on suitable loads, record that mismatch. Do not add maximum heat indiscriminately to correct an intentionally selected ironing condition.

Manuals and supporting guidance

Model-specific instructions take priority. These references support the practical principles discussed here; they do not diagnose your appliance.
