Before using your machine for the first time Do not tumble-dry Certain materials are not suitable for tumble-drying. Always check and follow the instructions on each item's laundry label. You can find more information in the chapter "Advice and tips before you tumble-dry". Note! When starting the tumble dryer for the first time or after a long period without use, you may notice a slight thumping noise. This noise is completely normal and will disappear after a few loads.
Safety instructions Read the operating instructions and keep them in a safe place! • Do not install the dryer behind doors with lock, sliding doors or next to the doors with hinges so that opening of the dryer door will never be hindered. Caution! • Electrical installation, if required, should be carried out by a qualified electrician. • The machine should only be used for tumble-drying as described in these instructions.
Safety instructions Recycling This machine is manufactured and labelled for recycling. In order to prevent injuries, the machine must be made unusable once the decision has been taken to dispose of it.

Advice and tips before you tumble-dry Here are some tips that may help you before you begin tumble-drying. Materials that must not be tumble-dried Have the clothes been spun? Items to be tumble-dried should be spun at 1000 rpm or faster. Higher spin speeds save both energy and drying time. Materials that can be tumble-dried This symbol means that the material is suitable for tumble-drying. Fabrics best suited to tumble-drying are cotton fabrics, terry cloth and synthetic fibres.
Tumble drying Below are step-by-step instructions to help you achieve the best possible tumble-drying results. (low temperature) 1 These programmes shut off the heat once the load is dry but before it is "over dry". The Auto dry programme shuts off the heat slightly later than Auto normal dry. Use trial and error to find out what works best. Use these programmes when you want items to be completely dry.
Tumble drying Programme chart Here we present a few examples of the energy and time consumption of a few different programme settings. Consumption can vary according to room temperature, humidity, load, variations in the power supply and selected options For the consumption values given below, the requirements are as follows: Temperature of intake air: Moisture content of intake air: Drying temperature: Heater output: 23°C 55 % Normal or low 3000W Programme chart Program Material Temper- Max.
Tumble drying 5 Press the Start button Remaining drying time An estimate of the remaining drying time will be shown on the display a few minutes after the drying programme starts. For example, "1:35" means that it will take approximately 1 hour and 35 minutes for the load to dry. The actual remaining time may be longer than the estimated time shown on the display. The remaining time is then shown as "0:15" until the load is sufficiently dry.

Care and cleaning Cleaning the lint filter Cleaning the outside of the machine If the display reads "Insert filter" the tumble dryer will not start. Insert the lint filter in its holder. Clean the outside of the machine and the programme panel with a mild cleaner. Do not use solvents, as these can damage the machine. Do not hose down or spray the machine with water. The lint filter must be cleaned after each load. If you have very hard water, this can cause limescale deposits in the lint filter.
Troubleshooting The machine will not start Drying takes too long Check • that the door is properly closed. • that the main power switch is on. • that the plug is connected. • that the fuses (circuit breakers) in your house are intact. Swap two circuit breakers over to make sure. You cannot always tell from the outside if a circuit breaker is broken. • that the overheating cut-out has not been triggered (see below). • that the lint filter is in place and is clean.

Service Before contacting the service division Before contacting the service division, you should find out whether you can resolve the fault yourself. See the "Troubleshooting" and "Care and cleaning" chapters. If you still need to contact the service division, make sure that you know the model designation, type designation and serial number. The model designation can be found in the stamped hole on the first page of the operating instructions and on the machine's panel.
Installation Positioning the tumble dryer The tumble dryer can be free-standing or in a stack. Remember that the tumble dryer produces heat and should therefore not be located in a room that is too small. If the room is very small, drying will take longer due to the limited quantity of air. How to assemble the stack: 1. Undo the anti-tilt device. Caution! • Any electrical installation must be carried out by qualified professionals.
Installation 5. Fit the plastic cups so that the “tags” marked with arrows are against the front edge or side edge of the cover and press them firmly onto the cover. Then break off the remaining tags. Adjusting the feet Screw the feet in or out so that the tumble dryer is steady and balanced on the floor or on the washing machine. Then tighten the lock nuts. Locking nut 6. Push out the knock-out hole on the back of the dryer (you must not remove it, just open it) using a hammer and screwdriver.
Installation Connection to the evacuation duct Installation in a hot environment The vent hose must take the shortest and straightest route possible from the tumble dryer to the evacuation duct. Trim or cut the vent hose if it is too long. If necessary, the vent hose can be extended to a maximum of 8 metres (inner diameter 102 mm). If a longer hose is needed, a larger inner diameter is required in order to maintain the tumble dryer’s fan capacity. Any bends must be as gradual as possible.
Installation Accessories Electrical installation If the vent hose runs to an outlet in the wall, you can prevent the inflow of cold air by fitting a ventilation grill. This grill can be installed either outside or inside. The electrical connection must be made using a cable for permanent installation, with a multipolar circuit breaker, by a qualified professional. Connection on delivery The machine is supplied as 1-Phase, 230V, 50Hz, heat output 3000W and has a 16A plug.
