high. Optimal room temperature is
between 18°-25°C.
Always clean the filter and
empty the water container
when a programme is
completed.
9.5 Stand-by function
To decrease the energy consumption,
this function automatically deactivates
the appliance:
• After 5 minutes if you do not start the
programme.
• After 5 minutes from the end of the
programme.
10. HINTS AND TIPS
10.1 Preparing the laundry
Very often the clothes after
washing cycle are kneaded
and tangled altogether.
Drying kneaded and tangled
clothes is inefficient.
To assure proper air flow
and even drying it is
recommended to shake and
load one by one the clothes
to the tumble dryer.
To assure proper drying process:
• Close the zips.
• Close the fasteners of duvet covers.
• Do not dry ties or ribbons loose (e.g.
apron ribbons). Tie them before you
start a programme.
• Remove all items from pockets.
• Turn items with the internal layer
made of cotton inside out. Cotton
layer must be faced outwards.
• Always set the programme suitable
for the type of laundry.
• Do not put light and dark colours
together.
• Use suitable programme for cottons,
jersey and knitwear to reduce
shrinkage.
• Do not exceed the maximum load
stated in the programmes chapter or
shown on the display.
• Dry only the laundry that is suitable
for tumble drying. Refer to the fabric
label on the items.
• Do not dry large and small items
together. Small items can be trapped
inside the large items and remain wet.
• Shake the large clothes, fabrics
before placing in the tumble dryer. It is
to avoid moist places inside the fabric
after the drying cycle.
Fabric label Description
Laundry is suitable for tumble drying.
Laundry is suitable for tumble drying at higher temperatures.
Laundry is suitable for tumble drying at low temperatures only.
ENGLISH 15

Laundry is not suitable for tumble drying.
11. CARE AND CLEANING
11.1 Cleaning the filter
CAUTION!
Avoid the use of water to
clean the filter. Instead throw
away lint in the dustbin
( avoid dispersion of plastic
fiber in water ambient).
To achieve the best drying
performances clean the filter
regularly , clogged filter lead
to longer cycles and energy
consumption increase.
Use your hand to clean the
filter , and if necessary , a
vacuum cleaner .

side of the door area.
Over usage time the surface of the
sensor may get dirty which deteriorates
the drying performance.
We recommend to clean the sensor at
least 3 or 4 times or if you observe the
drop of drying performance.
To clean you can use harder side of
dish-washing sponge and bit of vinegar
or dish soap.
To clean the sensor:
1. Open the loading door.
2. Clean the surfaces of the humidity
sensor wiping off the metal surface
several times.
11.5 Cleaning the drum
