Drying hints
BBeeffoorree llooaaddiinngg tthhee llaauunnddrryy 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 tempera-
ture)
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 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 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, for at least 30 minutes. This will be necessary particularly for multilayered items (e.g. collars, pockets, etc.).
Do not dry wool in the dryer. May become entangled! After air-drying, wool may be dried with the WOOL CARE programme.

Objective Implementation
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.

Clean periodically the interior part of the door to remove any fluff from the seals around the filter. Accurate clea­ning ensures correct drying.
CClleeaanniinngg tthhee ffiilltteerrss
Your dryer will only function well if the filters are clean. The filters collect all the fluff which accumulates during drying and they must therefore be clea­ned
aatt tthhee eenndd ooff eeaacchh pprrooggrraammmmee
, before removing the laundry, with a damp cloth.
The light is on to remind you of this operation.
The filter in the inner door must be removed for cleaning.
Do not be alarmed by the amount of fluff. It is not due to excessive wear caused by the dryer.
All fabric loses fluff when drying but it goes un-noticed in the air. In a tumble dryer it simply collects in the filter.
After a while, a whitish patina due to detergent residue on laundry forms on the filters. When this occurs, clean the filters with warm water using a brush. Remove the filter in the door opening as per picture (it can be positioned with the tooth facing to the left or to the right).

To pull out the condenser, first tur n the two red stops downwards and then remove the condenser unit holding it at the handle.
Clean it with a brush and rinse it under the shower if necessary. Also clean the outside, removing all fluff. Clean the rubber seal round the condenser cabi­net and in the inner part of the small door with a damp cloth..
IImmppoorrttaanntt!!
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.

Proceed as follows:
• Open the small door at the lower part of the cabinet
• Turn the yellow stop upwards
• Pull out the reservoir
• Open the small cover and let water flow down
• Close the small cover and re-insert the reservoir correctly
• Push it until it clicks and turn the yel­low stop downwards to ensure it is firmly locked.
• Close the small door and press the START/PAUSE button again to allow the programme to continue.
The reservoir must be re-inserted cor­rectly. If this is not done the pilot light
comes on during next drying and the programme stops, leaving the laun­dry damp. The buzzer will sound for 1 minute.
After emptying and inserting the reser­voir the STAR T-button has to be depressed again to allow the pro-

The condensed water may be used in a steam iron or to top up a battery, etc. In this case it must be fil­tered (e.g. through a coffee filter).
Cleaning the air intake grille Using a vacuum cleaner remove the
fluff from the air intake grille at the back of the appliance.
CClleeaanniinngg tthhee ddrruumm
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.

Installation
Unpacking
All transit bolts and packing must be removed before using the appliance. Slide out the polythene bag with the polystyrene stuffing before using the appliance. Pull off adhesive strips from inside the machine on top of drum.
Should the appliance be moved, it must be transported vertically.
Do not install the appliance behind – a door that locks – a sliding door – a door with a hinge that lies opposite the hinge of the appliance.
RReemmoovvee tthhee rraacckk The drying rack offers the possibility of
drying washable woollen fabrics and sports shoes. The drying rack does not turn with the clothes-dryer drum. This allows the drying of woollen garments or sports shoes. When wet, the wool must be moved as little as possible because it tends to become matted. Sports shoes could damage the drum due to their weight.
1. Lift the rack out of the polystyrene protection used for transport and remove it from the clothes-dryer drum.
2. Remove the pieces of polystyrene from the drum one at a time.
3. Remove the elastic band from the rack and the rack containe.
Positioning It is recommended that, for your
convenience, the machine is positioned close to your washing machine.
The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place, where dirt does not build up.
Air must be able to circulate freely all round the appliance. Do not obstruct the front ventilation grille or the air intake grilles at the back of the machine.
To keep vibration and noise to a minimum when the dryer is in use, it should be placed on a firm, level surface.
Once in its permanent operating position, check that the dryer is absolutely level with the aid of a spirit level. If it is not, raise or lower the feet until it is.
The feet must never be removed. Do not restrict the floor clearance through deep pile carpets, strips of wood or similar.
This might cause heat build-up which would interfere with the operation of the appliance.
125987340.qxp 2007-03-16 11:42 Page 26
Page 27
Important The hot air emitted by the tumble dryer
can reach temperatures of up to 60°C. The appliance must therefore not be installed on floors which are not resistant to high temperatures. When operating the tumble dryer, the room temperature must not be lower than +5°C and higher than +35°C, as it may affect the performance of the appliance.
SSttaacckkiinngg kkiitt A special stacking kit is available through
your dealer, to enable the mounting of the dryer on top of a front loading washing machine with cover’s depth between 48 and 60 cm. Read carefully the instructions supplied with the kit.
Door reversal
To make it easier to load or unload the laundry the door can be reversed. Reversing of the door is not possible if installed behind a door that opens in the opposite direction of the appliance.

Two versions can be supplied: – without stacker plate – with extractable stacker plate Read the manual supplied with the
installation kit carefully.
Levelling the appliance
The four feet of the appliance are preadjusted.
Large degrees of unevenness can be compensated for by individually adjusting the height adjustable screw feet.
To do this lift the appliance and turn the adjustable feet in or out.
IImmppoorrttaanntt
Do not use pieces of wood, cardboard or such like to level out unevenness in the floor, but adjust the height adjustable screw feet instead.
The wire coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter «E» or by the earth symbol or coloured green and yellow.
WARNING: A cut off plug inserted into a 13
amp socket is a serious safety (shock) hazard.
Ensure that the cut off plug is disposed of safely.
Permanent connection
In the case of permanent connection it is necessary that you install a double pole switch between the appliance and the electricity supply (mains), with a minimum gap of 3mm between the switch contacts and of a type suitable for the required load in compliance with the current electrical regulations.
The switch must not break the yellow and green earth cable at any point.
Important
The plug must be accessible after the appliance has been installed.

Ecological hints
To save water, energy and to help protect the environment, we recommend that you follow these tips:
• Normally soiled laundry may be washed without prewashing in order to save detergent, water and time (the nvironment is protected too!).
• The machine works more economically if it is fully loaded.
• With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be washed at a lower temperature.
• Measure out detergent according to the water hardness, the degree of soiling and the quantity of laundry being washed..
