tions before using the appli-
ance for the first time.
▪This appliance can be used
by children aged 8 and above
and by persons with reduced
physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experi-
ence and/or knowledge,
provided they are supervised
or have been instructed on
the safe use of the appliance
and have understood the haz-
ards involved. Children shall
not play with the appliance.
Cleaning and user mainten-
ance shall not be undertaken
by children without supervi-
sion.
▪If an appliance is not
equipped with a mains cable
and a plug or other means for
disconnecting from the mains
with a contact opening on
each pole complying with the
conditions of overvoltage cat-
egory III for full isolation, an
isolating device must be in-
corporated into the perman-
ently installed electrical install-
ation in accordance with the
installation regulations.
▪If the mains cable of this ap-
pliance is damaged, it must
be replaced by the manufac-
turer or its Customer Services
or a similarly qualified person
in order to avoid hazard.
1.3 Appliance-specific safety
precautions
▪Children under 3 years of age
must be kept away from the
appliance unless they are
constantly supervised.
▪The appliance has a max-
imum dry load capacity of
7 kg.

1 Safety warnings
6
▪WARNING: This appliance is
only designed for drying tex-
tiles which have been washed
in water.
▪The appliance is only to be
used with the recommended
vaporizing medium. The use
of other substances may give
rise to a toxic or fire risk.
▪The appliance has hot sur-
faces to evaporate active
components. These surfaces
should not be touched during
use.
▪The tumble dryer may not be
used if industrial chemicals
were used for cleaning.
▪The lint trap has to be
cleaned frequently.
▪Lint must not be allowed to
accumulate around the
tumble dryer.
▪Do not dry unwashed items in
the tumble dryer.
▪Textiles that have been
cleaned, treated or soaked
with flammable chemicals,
detergents or solvents (such
as white spirit, alcohol, stain
remover, oil, edible oil, tur-
pentine, acetone, paint, wax,
etc.) are a fire and explosion
hazard! Wash materials con-
taining such substances first
by hand with water or allow
the solvent to evaporate com-
pletely.
▪Items such as foam rubber
(latex foam), shower caps,
waterproof textiles, rubber
backed articles and clothes
or pillows fitted with foam rub-
ber pads should not be dried
in the tumble dryer.
▪Remove all objects from
pockets such as lighters and
matches.
▪WARNING: Never stop 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.
▪Ensure that any ventilation
openings in the base of the
appliance are not obstructed
by carpet.
▪WARNING: If the appliance is
installed in a housing, the
ventilation openings are to be
kept free of obstruction.
▪Exhaust air must not be dis-
charged into a flue which is
used for exhausting fumes
from appliances burning gas
or other fuels.
▪Fabric conditioner (softener)
and similar products must be
used as per the manufac-
turer’s instructions.

1 Safety warnings

▪Do not install the appliance
behind a door that locks, a
sliding door or a door with a
hinge that lies opposite the
hinge of the appliance.
▪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 util-
ity.
To minimize the risk of fire in a tumble
dryer, the following should be
observed:
▪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 can-
not escape, the items can be-
come 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 con-
taminated by hair care
products be placed in a
tumble dryer they should first
be washed in hot water with
extra detergent – this will re-
duce, but not eliminate, the
hazard.
1.4 Instructions for use
Before using for the first time
▪The appliance must be installed and
connected to the electricity supply in
accordance with the separate installa-
tion instructions. Have a qualified fitter/
electrician carry out the necessary
work.
▪Ensure access to the place of discon-
nection (e.g. socket outlet, wall switch,
fuse) and the water tap.
Correct use
▪The appliance is only suitable for drying
home textiles. It is designed for use in
the home and for the above-mentioned
purpose only. No liability is assumed for
any damage caused by improper or in-
correct use.
▪Any repairs, modifications or manipula-
tions to the appliance, especially any
electrically live parts, may only be car-
ried out by the manufacturer, its Cus-
tomer Services or a similarly qualified
person. Repairs if carried out incorrectly
may cause serious injury, damage to
the appliance and fittings, as well as af-
fect the functioning of the appliance.
▪If the appliance is not working properly
or in case a repair is needed, follow the
instructions given in the «Service and
repairs» section. Please contact our
Customer Services if necessary.
▪Use original spare parts only.
▪Before closing the appliance door and
starting a programme, ensure that there
are no foreign objects or pets in the

▪To protect your washing, follow the fab-
ric care symbols and the hints and ad-
vice in the «Programme overview» sec-
tion.
▪Do not operate the appliance without a
door filter or with a damaged door filter.
Fluff can destroy the appliance!
Caution: Risk of burns!
▪Do not dry fabrics that contain traces of
hair spray, hair gel, nail varnish remover
or other similar substances. Danger of
gas build-up!
Caution: Risk to life!
▪Packaging material, e.g. plastic film and
polystyrene, can be dangerous for chil-
dren. Danger of suffocation! Keep pack-
aging material away from children.
▪When carrying out maintenance work
on the appliance, including replacing
light bulbs, cut off the electricity supply
to the appliance: remove the screw fuse
from the holder or switch the circuit
breaker off, or unplug from the mains
socket.
How to avoid damaging the appliance
▪Close the appliance door carefully.
▪When cleaning the appliance make
sure no water gets inside it. Use a mod-
erately damp cloth. Do not spray the
outside or the inside of the appliance

ance, it will cause damage.
Transport and installation
Front
Front
Tilt max. 90° to the left!
▪Transport the appliance in an upright
position only! Transporting it in any
other position will result in damage to
the appliance! When carried carefully
without being shaken, the appliance
may be tilted a maximum of 90° to the
left (viewed from the front).
▪As a general rule, rooms containing
heat pump dryers should be ventilated
as these produce a small amount of
moisture. If the room is kept closed, it
must be aired occasionally (either by
opening the door to the room or a win-
dow) between several consecutive dry-
ing programmes.

2 Initial set-up
The appliance must be installed and connected to the electricity supply in accord-
ance with the separate installation instructions. Have a qualified fitter/electrician
carry out the necessary work.
If the location of the appliance is changed, because of the heat pump it must stand
in its final position for around 2 hours before it can be operated again. Failure to
do this can result in damage to the appliance.

4.7 Phases
The drying process has 3 phases:
Phases
Drying: The laundry is dried as per the settings (programme selec-
tion and user settings).
Cooling down / Final airing: The laundry is cooled down to a tem-
