To save energy and to help protect the environment, we recommend that you follow these hints:

• Try to load the maximum capacity of the machine as small loads are uneconomical.

• Always load well spun laundry. The higher the spin speed, the lower the electricity consumption and the shorter the drying times.

• Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and saves energy. Select the drying programme according to the type of laundry and the required degree of dryness.

• To utilize the maximum load, laundry which is to be dried ready to put away (store dry) can be dried together with items to be ironed. To do this, select the programme for iron-dry, remove the iron-dry items at the end of the programme and then finish-dry the rest of the load.

• Clean the filters regularly to avoid excessive drying times and high electricity consumption.

• Ventilate the room well. The room temperature should not exceed +35°C during drying.

Adjusting the level of conductivity

Water contains, a variable quantity of limestone and mineral salts of which quantities vary according to geographical locations thus varying its conductivity values.

Relevant variations of the conductivity of the water compared to those prefixed by the factory could slightly influence the residual humidity of the laundry at the end of the cycle.

Your dryer allows you to regulate the sensitivity of the drying sensor based on conductivity values of the water by using the following procedure.

Procedure:

Turn the programme selector dial to switch on the appliance In selection mode press simultaneously the buttons

3 and 6 until «C0» appears on the digits.

Adjusting the level of conductivity:

Press the button 5 sequentially: the level of conductivity is indicated by the lighting of the horizontal hyphens.

• Never tumble dry the following: Particularly delicate items such as net curtains, 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 of 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 of 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 completed, use either a fabric softener when you are washing the laundry or a fabric conditioner specifically for tumble dryers.

• Remove the laundry when the dryer has finished drying.

• If individual items are still damp after drying, set a brief post-drying time, but at least 30 minutes. This will be necessary particularly for multilayered items (e.g. collars, pockets, etc.).
