1 Safety Precautions
• Servicing shall be carried out only by authorized personnel.
• Only authorized spare parts, accessories and consumables shall be used.
• The machine is not to be used if industrial chemicals have been used for cleaning.
• Do not dry unwashed items in the machine.
• Items that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, pet-
rol, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers should be washed
in hot water with an extra amount of detergent before being dried in the machine.
• Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubber
backed articles and clothes or pillows fitted with foam rubber pads should not be dried
in the machine.
• Fabric softeners or similar products should be used as specified by the fabric softener
instructions.
• The final part of a drying cycle occurs without heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that the
items are left at a temperature that ensures that the items will not be damaged.
• Remove all objects from pockets such as lighters and matches.
• WARNING. Never stop the machine before the end of the drying cycle unless all items
are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.
• Adequate ventilation has to be provided to avoid the back flow of gases into the room
for appliances burning other fuels, including open fires.
• Exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used for exhausting fumes from
appliances burning gas or other fuels.
• The machine must not be installed behind a lockable door, a sliding door or a door with
a hinge on the opposite side to that of the machine in such a way that a full opening of
the machine is restricted.
• If the machine has a lint trap this has to be cleaned frequently.
• The lint must not be accumulated around the machine.
• DO NOT MODIFY THIS APPLIANCE.
• When performing service or replacing parts, the power must be disconnected.
• When the power is disconnected, the operator must see that the machine is discon-
nected (that the plug is removed and remains removed) from any point to which he has
access. If this is not possible, due to the construction or installation of the machine, a
disconnection with a locking system in the isolated position shall be provided.
• In accordance with the wiring rules: mount a multi-pole switch prior to the machine to
facilitate installation and service operations.
• Stationary appliances not fitted with means for disconnection from the supply mains
having a contact separation in all poles that provide full disconnection under overvolt-
age category III, the instructions state that means for disconnection must be incorpo-
rated in the fixed wiring in accordance with the wiring rules.
• WARNING: The appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device,
such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by a utility.
• If different rated voltages or different rated frequencies (separated by a /) are stated at
the machine data plate, instructions for adjusting the appliance for operation at the re-
quired rated voltage or rated frequency are stated in the installation manual.
• The openings in the base, shall not be obstructed by a carpet.

6User manual
• Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat sources
such as in a tumble dryer. The items become warm, causing an oxidation reaction in
the oil. Oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot escape, the items can become hot
enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing oil-affected items can prevent heat from
escaping and so create a fire hazard.
• If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or cooking oil or have been conta-
minated by hair care products be placed in a tumble dryer they should first be washed
in hot water with extra detergent – this will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard.
• Maximum mass of dry cloth: 2 x 16.7 kg.
• A-weighted emission sound pressure level at working stations: 70 dB(A).
• Additional requirements for the following countries; AT, BE, BG, HR, CY, CZ, DK, EE,
FI, FR, DE, GR, HU, IS, IE, IT, LV, LT, LU, MT, NL, NO, PL, PT, RO, SK, SI, ES, SE, CH,
TR, UK:
– The appliance can be used in public areas.
– This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowl-
edge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance
in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the ap-
pliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without
supervision.
• Additional requirements for other countries:
– This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.

tive / ON. The heating unit can be gas, electric, steam or heat pump type.
If the square box is not ticked, it doesn’t mean the heating unit is abnormal. This box is just monitoring the status of
the heating unit and shows if it is Active / ON or Inactive / OFF.
