Important! 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 Extratrocken (EXTRA DRY) programme. Items may shrink!

• Wool and wool-like textiles can be dried using the Wolle (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 respect to material, colour and weight. Please dry heavy laundry items made of wool separately.

Special notes about ProSteam

Page 9

Important!

• The following textiles cannot be treated using a ProSteam programme: leather, textiles with large metal, wooden or plastic parts, textiles with rusting metal parts, oilskins or wax cotton garments.

Important!

• To smooth or freshen laundry with a ProSteam programme, sort laundry by size, weight, material and colour. Only smooth textiles together that are similar in terms of size, weight, material and colour.

Important!

• Do not dry new, coloured textiles together with light-coloured laundry items. Colours may fade (check colour fastness of fabric

Important!

• Do not use dry cleaning sets in combination with ProSteam programmes.

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.

Special notes about ProSteam

• Before treating garments with a ProSteam programme, remove stains by washing or using localized stain removal

when damp in an inconspicuous area).

tings and material properties of the textile. The results can be improved if necessary by using different programmes and steam volumes. For example, some textiles containing more than 20% synthetic but with the right fittings may behave more like cotton textiles in a ProSteam programme. You may therefore get better smoothing results by selecting a cotton ProSteam programme.

Given the wide range of different textile grades and properties that can be manufactured today using

processes, we recommend running the first few ProSteam programmes at low steam levels and with a small number of garments that are as similar as possible. Later, you can carefully start to vary the conditions of ProSteam programmes to learn from experience how to get the best results from the volume of laundry loaded, the quality of the textiles and the most suitable steam levels and ProSteam programmes.

tortion to the shape of a garment which might occur in few cases, can be remedied by ironing.

Selecting the programme

Use the programme selector to set the programme you require. The estimated programme duration (in hours and minutes) appears in the multi-display as well as cycle finish time.

Select Dampfmenge (STEAM LEVEL) To achieve the best results, different

steam levels are required for different volumes of laundry. The Dampfmenge (STEAM LEVEL) button is used to set the required steam quantity of: MIN, MED or MAX.

All ProSteam programmes, apart from the REFRESH programmes, automatically recognize the remaining dampness in clothes. When laundry is wet, a drying cycle is activated first if required. The table shows the steam levels appropriate for the selected load, under Dampfmenge (STEAM LEVEL). Press the Dampfmenge (STEAM LEVEL) button repeatedly until the desired steam level (MIN, MED or MAX) is shown in the display. If the Dampfmenge (STEAM LEVEL) button is not pressed after a ProSteam programme is selected, the medium steam level (MED) is selected automatically. If you select a REFRESH programme, MIN is selected automatically.

Important! If in doubt, always select a lower steam level first until you have more experience with load volumes, fabric types and the corresponding optimum steam level. If too high steam

level is selected, garments may lose their shape. If too low steam level is selected, creases may remain.

Selecting additional options

The additional options available for the ProSteam programmes are LONG ANTICREASE,

BUZZER, SPIN SPEED

SPIN SPEED

If the washing in the washing machine was initially drained prior to the ProSteam cycle, the dryer can be set according to the spin speed of the initial drainage procedure. The higher the spin speed was, the shorter the programme length for the drying cycle. Activate the SPIN SPEED option and then number of times press Option button until the desired spin speed of the initial drainage is displayed. No value is shown if no spin speed is selected. In certain programmes the spin speed has not effect (time controlled cycles), its selection can be not selectable and only three dashes are visualized. Available selections: from 800 to 1800 rpm's in 100 rpm's intervals. The maximum value depends by selected program, the minimum is always 800 rpm For those programs where the spin speed has no effect (time controlled cycles), the selection is not allowed and three dashes “- -

-” are displayed that has the meaning of not set or unknown. The user interface always remembers last spin selection, and proposes it as default for all new selected programs. If memorized spin speed is greater than maximum allowed value it will be automatically reduced to max spin speed available for the selected program.

Care and cleaning

Cleaning fluff filter

The filters collect all the fluff which accumulates during drying. To ensure that the dryer works perfectly, the fluff filters (micro-fine filter and fine strainer) must be cleaned after every drying cycle. The message Please clean the filters. is shown in the display to remind you this operation.

• the insoles should be placed beside the shoes on the drying rack and the shoelaces should be tied

Caution! Never operate the dryer without fluff filters or with damaged or blocked fluff filters.

1. Open loading door

Page 21

2. Use a damp hand to clean the micro- fine filter, which is built into the lower part of the loading aperture.

3. After a period of time, a 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 from the door pulling it out. It can be positioned with the tooth facing to the left or to the right). After cleaning do not forget to put it back.

electrolux 21

6. Remove fluff from fine strainer. It is best to use a damp hand for this purpose.

Clean the entire filter area

The strainer area does not have to be cleaned after every drying cycle, but should be checked regularly and cleaned of fluff if necessary.

7. To do this, grip the top of the large mesh filter and pull it forwards until it comes loose from the two brackets.

8. Remove fluff from the entire filter area. It is best to use a vacuum cleaner for this purpose.
