ing cycle.
• Clean the heat exchanger filters when
the applicable indicator comes into the
view on the control panel.
• Spin good the laundry before drying.

INSTALLATION
APPLIANCE POSITIONING
• The tumble dryer must be installed in a
clean position, where dirt does not collect.
• Air must flow freely around the appli-
ance. Make sure that the front airflow
