Operating Instructions
1 Safety
Prior to initial start up
• Note the ”Installation and connection instructions”
• Before first starting up, check the machine for any damage incurred
during transport. Never connect a damaged machine. If parts are
damaged, contact your supplier.
Intended use
• The dryer is intended for drying standard laundry in domestic environments.
• Conversions or modifications to the dryer are not permitted.
• The laundry must not contain flammable solvents (benzene,
alcohol, stain remover, etc.) . Risk of fire and/or explosion! Laundry
which has come into contact with such substances must be rinsed
thoroughly by hand before drying.
• When using dry-cleaning sets: Only use those products which are declared as suitable for the dryer by the manufacturer.
• Do not place items of laundry in the dryer which contain foam rubber
or materials similar to rubber. Risk of fire!
• Do not place heavily worn laundry items in the dryer. Risk of fire!

Disposal
Packaging material
2
The packaging materials are environmentally friendly and can be recycled. The plastic components are identified by markings, e.g. >PE<,
>PS<, etc. Please dispose of the packaging materials in the appropriate
container at your local waste disposal facilities.
2 Old appliance
Please dispose of your old appliance in line with the guidelines for disposal in your area.
1 Warning! When your appliance has finished it's working life, remove
the plug from the mains socket. Cut off the cable and plug and dispose
of them.

inside and endangering their lives.
2 Environmental tips
• Your dryer will function most economically if you:
– always keep the ventilation slots on the base of the dryer unob-
structed;
– use the loading volumes specified in the programme overview;
– ensure you have good ventilation in the installation room;
– clean the micro-fine filter and fine strainer after each drying cycle;
– spin the laundry well before drying. Example: Consumption data –
depending on spinning speed – for 6kg of laundry, dried using the
COTTONS STORAGE DRY programme.

Sorting and preparing laundry
Sorting laundry
• Sort by fabric type:
– Cotton/linen for programmes in COTTONS programme group.
– Mixtures and synthetics for programmes in EASY CARES pro-
gramme group.
• Sorting by care label. The care labels mean:
n m l k
Basic drying in tumble
dryer possible
Drying at
normal
temperature
• Do not dry new, coloured textiles together with light-coloured laundry items. Textile colours may bleed.
• Do not dry tricot or knitted items with the EXTRA DRY programme.
Items may become stuck!
• Do not dry wool in the dryer. May become entangled! After air-drying, wool may be dried with the WOOL CARE programme.
Drying at
reduced temperature
(press SPECIAL CARE

Preparing laundry
• To avoid laundry becoming tangled: Close zips, button up coverings
and tie loose bands or ribbons (e.g. of aprons).
• Empty pockets. Remove metallic items (paperclips, safety pins etc).
• 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.
