Appliance description
Technical data

It is not recommended to reduce
temperature or switch off the heater, as the
drying time is thus extended because of
poor condensation of evaporated water.
• Use the dryer to dry only laundry washed with
water. Do not attempt to dry laundry, washed or
cleaned with ammable detergents or solutions
(gasoline, trichloroethylene etc.), as it may cause
explosion.
• Do not let the children play with the appliance.
Prevent your children or pets to enter the dryer
drum.
• When discarding the old appliance remove
the power cord and break the lock, so that the
door can not be locked (safety precautions for
children).
• After cleaning replace the condenser to the air
channel. Operating the appliance without the
condenser or with a damaged condenser may
cause a re.
• The rear wall of the appliance may be hot -
danger of burns.
• Clean lter after each drying. If the lter has
been removed, always reinsert it before the next
operation.
• After use always turn the appliance off (the
program selection jog should be in position “0”)
and unplug the power cord.
• Close the dryer door prior to pulling out the water
container.
• Leave all repairs to a qualied technician.
Tampering with the appliance or damage by
an unqualied person may cause accidents or
failures. Call your nearest authorised service
centre on 1300 652 100.
• Name plate with technical information about the
appliance is located under the door frame.
• The room must be well aired, surrounding air
must not contain dusty particles.

Warnings

• Room where the appliance is located must be well
aired to prevent back ow of gasses, released by
open re gas appliances (replace).
To minimize the risk of re in a tumble dryer, the
following should be observed:
• Items that have been spotted or soaked with
vegetable or cooking oil constitute a re hazard
and should not be placed in a tumble dryer.
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 re. Piling,
stacking or storing oilaffected items can prevent
heat from escaping and so create a re hazard.
If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain
vegetable or cooking oil or have been
contaminated by hair care products be placed
in a tumble dryer they should rst be washed in
hot water with extra detergent - this will reduce,
but not eliminate, the hazard. The ‘cool down’
cycle of tumble dryers should be used to reduce
the temperature of the items. They should not be
removed from the tumble dryer or piled or stacked
while hot.
• Items that have been previously cleaned in,
washed in, soaked in or spotted with petrol/
gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or other ammable
or explosive substances should not be placed in a
tumble dryer.
Highly ammable substances commonly used
in domestic environments include acetone,
denatured alcohol, petrol/gasoline, kerosene, spot
removers (some brands), turpentine, waxes and
wax removers.
• Items containing foam rubber (also known as
latex foam) or similarly textured rubber. like
materials should not be dried in a tumble dryer on
4
5

a heat setting.
Foam rubber materials can, when heated,
produce re by spontaneous combustion.
• Fabric softeners or similar products should not be
used in a tumble dryer to eliminate the effects of
static electricity unless this practice is specically
recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric
softener or product.
• Undergarments that contain metal reinforcements
should not be placed in a tumble dryer.
Damage to the tumble dryer can result if metal
reinforcements come loose during drying. When
available a drying rack could be used for such
items.
• Plastic articles such as shower caps or babies’
waterproof napkin covers should not be placed in
a tumble dryer.
• Rubber-backed articles, clothes tted with foam
rubber pads, pillows, galoshes and rubber-coated
tennis shoes should not be placed in a tumble
dryer.
The belt can be replaced by a servicing
engineer only, who incorporates an original
spare part with the marking OPTIBELT EPH
1906, code 104265.

The appliance is connected to the power supply by
means of a cable cord plug. The wall socket should
be earthed (safety socket). Required nominal
current and frequency are stated on the rating plate.
The wiring should withstand maximum load. Electric
connection and earthing should be carried out in
accordance with current standards and regulations.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer or its service
agent or a similarly qualied person in
order to avoid a hazard.
• The appliance should be placed in a position,
where the plug is within reach.
If used with a cord extension device
or portable outlet device, ensure such
devices are positioned so as not to be
subjected to splashing or ingress of
moisture.
