Only when the particular garment permits the selected machine drying treatment. Stretch fibres, coatings and technical fabrics can have restrictions that differ from everyday cotton.
Understanding this situation
The wash programme's sportswear name does not necessarily mean a drying stage is suitable. Check both sets of symbols, plus any guidance about conditioner or specialist detergent, before committing the load to a continuous cycle.
A useful next step
Remove items requiring air drying after a completed safe wash. Use a compatible drying programme for the remaining load. If a garment loses stretch or finish, retain its instructions and the exact settings used so the change can be described accurately.
Manuals and supporting guidance
Model-specific instructions take priority. These references support the practical principles discussed here; they do not diagnose your appliance.
