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!
• Do not place laundry items with loose fillings (e.g. cushions) in the
dryer. Risk of fire!
• Parts with rigid components (e.g. door mats) may cover the air slots.
Risk of fire! Do not place such items in the dryer.
• Do not overfill the dryer. Risk of fire! Observe max. loading volume of
6 kg.
• Ensure that explosive objects (e.g. cigarette lighters, spray cans, etc.)
do not enter the dryer with the laundry. Risk of fire and/or explosion!
• Clean the micro-fine filter and fine strainer after each drying cycle.
• Do not use the machine if there are no lint filters or if these are dam-
aged. Risk of fire!
• Clean the fluff filter behind the base door regularly.

These may fall off during operation.
• The lampcover for the interior light must be screwed down tightly.
5
Child safety
• Keep packaging away from children. Risk of suffocation!
• Children can often not see the dangers associated with electrical ap-
pliances. Never leave unsupervised children near the dryer.
• Ensure that children and small animals cannot climb into the dryer’s
drum. Risk of death! Keep the dryer door shut whenever it is not being used.
General safety
• Only our qualified engineers may undertake repairs on the dryer.
• Never start up the dryer if the mains cable is damaged or if the oper-
ating screen, operating plate or base area are damaged so that the inside of the machine is open and accessible.
• Switch off the dryer before all cleaning, care or maintenance work.
Also disconnect the mains plug from the socket or – with permanent
connections – switch off the LS switch in the fuse box and/or remove
the fuse.
• Disconnect the machine from the power supply when it is not in use.
• When removing from the socket, never pull the mains plug by the ca-
ble, instead take a hold of the plug.
• Adapter plugs, couplings and extension cables must not be used. Risk
of fire from overheating!
• Do not spray down the dryer with jets of water. Risk of electric shock!
• Do not lean on the open door. The machine may tip over.
• Once the drying cycle has been interrupted, the laundry and drum
may be hot. Risk of burns! Take care when removing the laundry.

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.

Before the first drying cycle
If the appliance was not transported in an upright position, leave it to
1
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.
1. 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
• Sorting by fabric type:
– Cotton/linen for programmes in the COTTON programme group.
– Mixed fibres and synthetics for programmes in the EASY CARES
programme group.
• Sorting by care label. The care labels mean:
n m l k
Drying in
the tumble dryer
possible in principle
Dry at normal
temperature
Dry at
reduced temperature
Drying in the
tumble dryer
not possible
• Do not dry new, coloured textiles together with light-coloured laun-
dry items. Textile colours may bleed.
• Do not dry cotton jersey and knitwear with the EXTRA DRY pro-
gramme. Items may shrink!
• Wool and wool-like textiles can be dried using the WOOL programme.
Before the drying cycle spin the woollen textiles as well as possible
(max. 1200 rpm). Only dry woollen textiles together which are similar
or the same with repect to material, colour and weight. Please dry
heavy laundry items made of wool separately.
Preparing laundry
• To avoid laundry becoming tangled: close zips, button up duvet cov-
ers 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.
