WARNING :
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using your appliance,
follow basic precautions, including the following:
— Read all instructions before using the appliance.
— 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.
— Do not allow children to play on or in the appliance. Close supervision of children is necessary
when the appliance is used near children.
— Before the appliance is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the drying com-
partment.
— Do not reach into the appliance if the drum is moving.
— Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather.
— Do not tamper with controls.
— 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.
— Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended by the manufac-
turer of the fabric softener or product.
— Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-like materials.
— Clean lint screen before or after each load.
— Keep area around the exhaust opening and adjacent surrounding areas free from the accumula-
tion of lint, dust, and dirt.
— The interior of the appliance should be cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.
— 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.

Grounding instructions
— This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will
reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current.
— This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a groun-
ding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and groun-
ded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
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.
Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance: if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper out-
let installed by a qualified electrician.

1 / FOR THE USER’S ATTENTION
— Substances contained in soiling such as oil, acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene, stain removers,
turpentine or wax must be removed before drying in your machine (by using an adapted warm water
washing programme with additional detergent for example).
— Precautions for using stain-removing products : any preliminary treatment by solvent, stain-remo-
ver, aerosol, such as acetone, alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, turpentine is prohibited because these
products are very inflammable. If your laundry requires this type of treatment, this must be done
before washing. Similarly, we recommend that you do not use these products near to the dryer or,
in general, near any electrical appliance in a poorly ventilated room in order to avoid any risk of an
explosion.
— If any incidents occur, which you cannot resolve using the troubleshooting advice we provide (see
“TROUBLESHOOTING”), contact our Technical Service Center.
— Before disposing of your worn-out appliance, make it unusable. Unplug and cut off the power
cable flush with the appliance and make the door lock inoperable.
— For your safety’s sake, if you wish to change your appliance’s power cable, contact a qualified
electrician.
— If any operating anomalies occur, disconnect your appliance and call our Technical Service
Center.
•ENERGY SAVINGS
— Spin your textiles at high speeds ; the residual dampness will be low, as will your energy
consumption. Even synthetic textiles must be spun before drying.
— Place the maximum load in your machine ; this will optimize the energy used. When doing so,
comply with the indications on volume provided in this instruction manual.
— The drying time and the energy consumption are both increased by a high ambient temperature
and too small a room.
— Clean the filter after each drying cycle.
— Clean the condenser twice a month.
