SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE
REFERENCE!
WARNING – To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or
injury to persons when using your appliance, follow basic
precautions, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned
in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline,
dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive
substances, as they give off vapours that could ignite or
explode.
3. Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance.
Close supervision of children is necessary when the
appliance is used near children.
4. Before the appliance is removed from service or
discarded, remove the door to the drying compartment.
5. Do not reach into the appliance if the drum is moving.
6. Do not install or store this appliance where it will be
exposed to the weather.
7. Do not tamper with controls.
8. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or
attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended
in the user-maintenance instructions or in published
user-repair instructions that you understand and have the
skills to carry out.
5
864474
9. Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static
unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric
softener or product.
10. Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or
similarly textured rubber-like materials.
11. Clean lint screen before or after each load.
12. Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent
surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint,
dust, and dirt.
13. The interior of the appliance and exhaust duct should be
cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.
14. Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer.
Items contaminated with cooking oils may contribute
to a chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch
fire. To reduce the risk of fire due to contaminated loads,
the final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat
(cool down period). Avoid stopping a tumble dryer before
the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly
removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.
15. WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service
representative or personnel if you are in doubt as to
whether the appliance is properly grounded.
Carefully read the instructions for use before using the
dryer.
Please, do not use the dryer without reading and
understanding these instructions for use first.

864474
These instructions for use of a dryer are supplied with
different types or models of dryers. Therefore, they may
include descriptions of settings or equipment that are not
available in your dryer.
Failure to observe the instructions for use or inappropriate
use of the dryer may result in damage to the laundry or the
appliance, or injury to the user. Keep the instruction manual
handy, near the dryer.
Your dryer is intended solely for household use. If the
dryer is used for professional, for-profit purpose or purpose
exceeding normal use in a household, or if the dryer is used
by a person who is not a consumer, the warranty period shall
be equal to the shortest warranty period required by relevant
legislation.
Follow the instructions for correct installation of the dryer and
connection to the power mains (see chapter »INSTALLATION
AND CONNECTION«).
All and any repairs or maintenance tasks on the dryer should
only be done by trained experts. Unprofessional repair may
result in an accident or major malfunction.
To avoid danger, a damaged power cord may only be
replaced by the manufacturer, a service technician, or an
authorized person.
7
864474
After installation, the dryer should stand still for two
hours before it is connected to the power mains.
At least two persons are required to install the tumble dryer
on top of a washing machine.
WARNING: The dryer may not be connected to the power
mains using an extension cord.
Do not connect the dryer to power mains using an external
switching device such as a programme timer, or connect it
to power mains that is regularly switched on and off by the
power supply provider.
WARNING: In case of a defect, only use approved spare
parts by authorized manufacturers.
WARNING: In case of incorrect dryer connection,
incorrect use, or servicing by an unauthorized person, the
user shall bear the cost of any damage as such damage shall
not be covered by warranty.
Always use the ducts or hoses supplied with the dryer.
Install the dryer in a room with adequate ventilation and a
temperature between 50°F (10°C) and 77°F (25°C).
Place the dryer on a level and stable solid (concrete) base.
8
864474
WARNING: Do not place the dryer behind lockable or
sliding door, or door with a hinge on the opposite side of the
dryer door hinge. Install the dryer in such way that the door
can always be freely opened.
Never block the air exhaust (evacuation opening).
WARNING: Do not place the dryer on a carpet with long
fibres as this may impede air circulation.
Air in the dryer environment should not contain dust
particles. The air where the dryer is installed should be
thoroughly ventilated to prevent reverse flow of gases
released from the gas appliances with open fire (e.g. a
fireplace).
Make sure the fibres do not accumulate around the dryer.
The appliance may not be in contact with a wall or adjacent
furniture.
After installation, let the dryer rest still for 24 hours before
using it. If the dryer has to be laid down on one of the sides
during transport or servicing, place it with its left side,
viewing from the appliance front, downwards.
Do not use the dryer to dry any laundry that has not been
washed.
9
864474
Laundry stained with oil, acetone, alcohol, oil derivatives,
stain removers, turpentine, wax, and wax removers should be
washed in a washing machine with hot water and detergent
before it is dried in the dryer.
Clothing that includes latex, rubber parts, shower and
bathing caps, and laundry or covers with rubber foam may
not be dried in the dryer.
Use laundry conditioners or similar products in compliance
with manufacturer's instructions.
WARNING: Remove all objects such as lighters and
matches from the pockets.
If the condensate tube is blocked or clogged, then tumble
dryer operation is stopped (see chapter »PAUSING AND
CHANGING THE PROGRAMME/Full condensate tank«).
Before moving the dryer or before storing it in a non-heated
room during the winter, the condensate tank has to be
emptied.
Clean the dryer filters after each drying cycle. If you have
removed the filters, replace them before the next drying
cycle.
10
864474
WARNING: Do not use any solvents or cleaning
agents that could damage the dryer (please observe
the recommendations and warnings provided by the
manufacturers of the cleaning agents).
After the drying process, unplug the dryer power cord
from the power outlet.
Never add chemicals or fragrances into the condensate
tank (see chapter »DESCRIPTION OF THE DRYER and
EMPTYING THE CONDENSATE TANK«).
The dryer uses a heat pump system to heat the air.
The system consists of a compressor and a heat
exchanger. When the dryer is started, compressor operation
(the sound of flowing liquid) or flow of refrigerant may be
louder as long as the compressor operates. This is not a sign
of malfunction and it will not affect useful life of the dryer. In
time and with use of the dryer this noise will become quieter.
The dryer is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with physical or mental impairments, or persons
with lacking experience and knowledge. These persons
should be instructed about the use of the dryer by a person
responsible for their safety.
The warranty does not cover consumables, minor
deviations in colour, increased noise that results from
appliance age and which does not affect the functionality of
the dryer, and aesthetic defects on components, which do
not affect the dryer's functionality and safety.
11
864474
CHILD SAFETY
Do not allow children to play with the dryer.
Prevent your children and pets from entering the dryer drum.
Before closing the dryer door and running the programme,
make sure there is nothing except laundry in the drum (e.g. if
a child climbed into the dryer drum and closed the door from
the inside).
Activate the Child lock. See chapter »STEP 4: SETTING
THE EXTRA FUNCTIONS/Child lock«.
Do not let children younger than three years to come
near the tumble dryer, unless they are under constant
supervision.
The dryer is made in compliance with all relevant safety
standards.
This dryer may be used by children aged 8 years and above
and by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge, but only
if they are supervised during the use of the appliance, if
they have been provided relevant instructions regarding
safe use of the dryer, and if they understand the hazards
of inappropriate use. Make sure children do not play with
the dryer. Children may not clean the dryer or perform any
maintenance tasks without supervision.
12
864474
WARNING: DANGER OF HOT SURFACE
At higher drying temperatures, the door glass will heat up. Be
careful to avoid burns. Make sure children do not play near
the door glass.
The back of the dryer may get very hot during operation.
Wait for the dryer to cool down completely before
touching its back side.
If you open the dryer door during the drying process, the
clothes may be very hot and there is a risk of burning.
Never stop the drying process before it is completed; if
you do interrupt the cycle for any reason, be careful when
removing the laundry from the drum as it is very hot. Quickly
remove the laundry from the drum and spread it to allow it to
cool down as quickly as possible.
13
864474
SAFETY
WARNING: Only use the dryer to dry laundry that was
washed with water. Do not dry any laundry that was washed
or cleaned with flammable cleaners or substances (such
as gasoline, trichloroethylene etc.) as this may result in an
explosion.
If you have cleaned your clothes with industrial cleaners or
chemical substances, do not dry them in the dryer.
The dryer is protected with an automatic switch-off system
in case of overheating. This system will switch off the dryer if
the temperature is too high.
If the net filter is clogged, the overheating automatic switch-
off system may be activated. Clean the filter, wait for the
dryer to cool down, and try running it again. If the dryer still
fails to start, call a service technician.

The dryer may not be in contact with a wall or adjacent furniture. For optimum dryer operation,
we recommend observing the clearance from the walls as indicated in the figure. In case of failure
to heed the required minimum clearance, the dryer may overheat.
Vents on the back wall and the air exhaust opening on the front side of the dryer should never be
obstructed.
The room in which you will install the dryer should be sufficiently ventilated, with a temperature
between 50°F (10°C) and 77°F (25°C). Dryer operation at a lower environment temperature may
result in condensate accumulation in the dryer interior. Do not place the dryer into a place where
there is danger of freezing. Frozen water in the condensate tank and pump may damage the dryer.
The dryer emits heat. Therefore, do not place it in a very small room, as the drying process may
take longer due to limited amount of available air.
Lighting in the room should be sufficient to allow reading the information on the display unit on the
control panel.
WARNING: Appliances are not intended to be installed in a
closet.

DRYER PLACEMENT
If you also have a dryer of corresponding (same) dimensions, it can be placed on top of the washing
machine; in this case, vacuum feet must be used. Alternatively, the dryer can be placed next to the
washing machine (figures 1 and 3).
If your washing machine is smaller (minimum depth 21½" (545 mm)) than your dryer, then the
dryer support has to be purchased extra (figure 2). The supplied vacuum feet must be used; they
are designed to prevent the dryer from slipping. It is essential to use the vacuum feet! Additional
equipment (dryer support (a), vacuum feet (b) and wall fixing bracket (c)) can be purchased at the
service centre.
The surface on which the appliance is placed should be clean and level.
Washing machine onto which you intend to place the dryer should be able to hold the weight of the
dryer (see chapter »DESCRIPTION OF THE DRYER/Technical information«).
