Before loading the laundry
Never tumble dry the following:
Particularly delicate items such as net cur-
tains, woollen, silk, fabrics with metal trim,
nylon tights, bulky materials such as anoraks,
blankets, eiderdowns, sleeping bags, feather
quilts and any items containing rubber foam
or materials similar to rubber foam.
• Always follow the instructions on garment
labels:
may be tumble dried
normal drying (high temperature)
delicate drying (low temperature)
do not tumble dry
• Close pillowcases and covers with fasteners
to prevent small laundry items getting tangled
inside them. Close press studs, zips and
hooks and tie belts and apron strings.
• Sort laundry according to type and degree on
drying required.
• Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing
and saves energy.
• Avoid drying dark clothes with light coloured
fluffy items such as towels as they could
attract the fluff.
• The laundry must be thoroughly spun before
tumble drying.
•Easy-care items, too, e.g. shirts, should be
briefly pre-spun before drying (depending on
crease resistance approx. 30 seconds or
using the special brief spin programme on
your washing machine).
• Knitted textiles (knitted underwear) may
shrink a little during drying. Please do not
overdry items of this type. It is advisable to
allow for shrinkage when choosing the size of
new purchases.
• You can also put starched items into your
dryer. However, to achieve the desired
starched effect, choose the programme “iron
dry”. To remove any starch residues, wipe out
the internal drum after drying with a moist
cloth and then rub it dry.
• To avoid a static charge when drying is com-
pleted, use either a fabric softener when you
are washing the laundry or a fabric condition-
er specifically for tumble dryers.
• Remove the laundry when the dryer has fin-
ished drying.
• If individual items are still damp after drying,
Before the first use
Drying hints
Ensure that the electrical connections
comply with the installation instructions.
• Remove the polystryrene block and
any material from the drum.
• Before using your tumble dryer for the
first time, we recommend that you place
a few damp cloths inside the appliance
and dry for 30 minutes.
There may be dust inside a brand new
tumble dryer.

set a brief post-drying time, but at least 30
minutes. This will be necessary particularly
for multilayered items (e.g. collars, pockets,
etc.).
Make sure that no metal objects are left in
the laundry (e.g. hair clips, safety pins,
pins).
Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners, hooks
and poppers. Tie any belts or long tapes.
To avoid laundry becoming tangled: close zips,
button up duvet covers and tie loose ties or
ribbons (e.g. of aprons).
Turn items with double-layered fabrics inside out
(e.g. with cotton lined anoraks, the cotton layer
should be outermost). These fabrics will then dry
better.
Maximum loads
Recommended loads are indicated in the
programme charts.
General rules:
Cotton, linen: drum full but not too tightly
packed;
Synthetics: drum no more than half full;
Delicate fabrics and woollens: drum no more
than one third full.
Try to load to the maximum capacity of the
machine as small loads are uneconomical.

Your dryer will only function well if
the filters are clean. The filters
collect all the fluff which accumu-
lates during drying and they
must therefore be cleaned at
the end of each programme,
before removing the laundry,
with a damp cloth. The filter
light is on to remind you of this
operation.

4. Clean the rubber seal round the
condenser cabinet and in the inner
part of the small door with a damp
cloth.
Important:
Do not use pointed objects or
utensils to clean the spaces
between the plates, as this
could damage the condenser
and make it permeable.
Re-fit the condenser, turn the red
stops upwards and close the door.
Important:
Do not use this appliance if the
condenser has not been fitted.
Emptying the water reservoir
Important:
Water extracted from the laundry condenses inside the machine and is collected in a reservoir.
The reservoir must be emptied after each drying cycle to ensure efficient operation when the machine is
next used. The pilot light Empty Tank reminds you of this operation.
Proceed as follows:

Cleaning the air intake grille
Using a vacuum cleaner remove the fluff from the air
intake grille at the back of the appliance
Cleaning the drum
When your laundry does not reach the desired degree of
dryness, in other words, when it turns out either too dry
or too damp, we advise you to clean the inside of the
drum with a cloth soaked with vinegar.
This will eliminate the slight patina that has formed in
the drum (due to residues of detergent and softeners
used in the washing, and to the lime contained in the
water), which prevents the probes from detecting the
correct degree of dryness.
1.Open the small door at the lower
part of the cabinet.
2. Turn the yellow stop upwards.

3. Pull out the reservoir.
4. Open the small cover and let

5. Push it until it clicks and turn the
yellow stop downwards ensure it is
firmly locked.
6. Close the small door and press

Important:
The reservoir must be re-insert-
ed correctly.
After emptying and inserting the
reservoir the START-button has to

Handy tip: The condensed water
may be used in a steam iron or to
top up a car battery, etc. In this
case it must be filtered (e.g.
through a coffee filter).
