Before first use

WARNING!

If the appliance was not transported in an upright position, leave it to stand for 12 hours
before connecting it to the electricity supply and using it for the first time, so that the oil
can flow back to the compressor. Otherwise the compressor could be damaged.

In order to remove any residues which may have been produced during production, wipe
the dryer drum with a damp cloth or carry out a brief drying cycle (30 MIN) with damp
cloths in the machine.

Sorting and preparing laundry

Sorting laundry

• Sort by fabric type:
– Cotton/linen for programmes in COTTONS (KATOEN) programme group.

– Mixtures and synthetics for programmes in EASY CARE (SYNTHETISCH) programme

group.

• Sorting by care label. The care labels mean:

Drying in the tumble

dryer possible in prin-

ciple

Drying at normal

temperature

Drying at reduced

temperature

Drying in the tumble

dryer not possible

Do not place in the appliance any wet laundry which is not specified on the care label as
being suitable for tumble-drying.
This appliance can be used for all wet laundry items which are labelled as suitable for
tumble-drying.

• Do not dry new, coloured textiles together with light-coloured laundry items. Textile
colours may bleed.

• Do not dry cotton jersey and knitwear with the EXTRA programme. Items may shrink!

• Do not dry wool in the dryer. May become entangled! After air-drying, wool may be dried
with the WOOL CARE WOL programme.

Preparing laundry

• To avoid laundry becoming tangled: close zips, button up duvet covers and tie loose ties
or ribbons (e.g. of aprons).

• Empty pockets. Remove metal items (paper clips, 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.

Care and cleaning

2. Pour condensed water out into a basin or

similar receptacle.

3. Slide outlet connections in and refit con-

densate tank.

If the programme has been interrupted as

a result of the condensate tank being full:

Press the START PAUSE button to contin-

ue the drying cycle.
The condensate tank has a volume of approx.

4 litres. This is sufficient for around 7kg of
laundry which has previously been spun at 1000 revolutions/ minute.

The condensate can be used as distilled water, e.g. for steam ironing. However first filter
the condensate (e.g. with a coffee filter) to remove any residue and small pieces of fluff.

Cleaning heat exchanger filter

If the indicator clean base filter lights up, the heat exchanger filter in the base of the
appliance must be cleaned.

To protect the heat pump from dirt, the dryer is fitted with fluff filter, which is located in
the filter housing. Here too large amounts of fluff build up over time, which affect the
function of the appliance.

• Operating when the fluff filter is clogged with fluff can damage the dryer. This also

increases energy consumption.

• Never operate the dryer without the fluff filters.

• Do not use the dryer without the fluff filter. A dirty heat pump requires more energy

and can only be cleaned up by means of a costly process.

Care and cleaning

9. As necessary, approx. once every 6

months, remove the fluff from the heat
exchanger using the sponge supplied.
When doing this, please use rubber
gloves.

Tip: The fluff can be removed more easi­ly if it is first dampened e. g. with a
laundry dampener.

10. Re-insert filter housing along with filter

in appliance base.
Note: If the fluff filter is not inserted in the filter housing, the filter housing cannot

be slid into the appliance base.

11. Close door in plinth.

Cleaning the drum

CAUTION!

Do not use abrasives or steel wool to clean the drum.

Lime in the water or cleaning agents may form a barely visible lining on the inside of the
drum. The degree to which the laundry has been dried is then no longer detected reliably.
The laundry is damper than expected when removed from the dryer.
Use a standard domestic cleaner (e.g. vinegar-based cleaner) to wipe down the inside of
the drum and drum ribs.

Clean operating screen and housing

CAUTION!

Do not use furniture cleaners or aggressive cleaning agents to clean the machine.
