Abstract

La présente invention concerne un sèche-linge (1) permettant la sélection du temps de séchage approprié pour une charge de linge à partir d'une indication visuelle de la hauteur de charge du linge dans la chambre de séchage du sèche-linge. La présente invention concerne également un procédé de séchage du linge permettant la sélection du temps de séchage approprié pour une charge de linge à partir de la visualisation de la hauteur de charge du linge dans la chambre de séchage dudit sèche-linge. Le sèche-linge de la présente invention comprend un dispositif d'indication visuelle (4) pourvu d'indicateurs visuels (5a à 5e) correspondant à des plages prédéterminées de hauteur occupée par la charge du linge logé dans un compartiment de séchage (2), ainsi qu'un dispositif sélecteur de temps de séchage (6) associant un temps de séchage à chacun des indicateurs visuels (5a à 5e) du dispositif d'indication visuelle (4).
