Do not use heat to dry articles containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-like materials.

Clean the lint filter before and after each load (see Maintenance).

Keep the area around the exhaust opening and adjacent surroundings free from the accumulation of lint, dust and dirt.

The interior of the appliance and exhaust duct should be cleaned periodically by qualified service personnel.

Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer. Items contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire.

This tumble dryer has been designed for home, and not professional, use.

This dryer must be used by adults, and the instructions in this booklet should be followed carefully.

Do not touch the appliance while barefoot or with wet hands or feet.

The appliance must be installed correctly and have proper ventilation. The air intake at the front of the dryer and the rear vents behind the machine should never be obstructed (see Installation).

Check to see if the dryer is empty before loading it.

The back of the dryer could become very hot. Never touch it while in use.

Do not use the dryer unless the filter and condenser are securely in place (see Maintenance).

Clean the condenser unit at regular intervals (see Maintenance).

Do not overload the dryer (see Laundry for maximum loads).

Do not load items that are dripping wet.

Tumble dry items only if they have been washed with detergent and water, rinsed and been through the spin cycle. It is a fire hazard to dry items that have not been washed with water.

Carefully check all instructions on clothing labels (see Laundry).

Do not tumble dry large, very bulky items.

Do not tumble dry acrylic fibres at high temperatures.

Complete each program with its Air Fluff phase.

Do not turn off the dryer when there are still warm items inside.

Never climb on top of the dryer. It could result in damage.

Comply with specified electrical requirements (see Installation).

Always buy original spare parts and accessories (see Troubleshooting).

Grounding instructions (see Installation)

WARNING:

THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE GROUNDED. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative or personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded!

In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

DO NOT modify the plug provided with the appliance: if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician or exchange the cord with an appropriate one rated for the dryer.

REFER TO THE RATING PLATE FOR VOLTAGE AND CURRENT REQUIREMENTS (see diagram for location). The dryer should be connected to the mains supply via a suitable socket which is accessible after installing your dryer. This dryer must be connected to 30A INDIVIDUAL BRANCH CIRCUIT.

For full details see Installation Instruction sections of this book.

IF IN DOUBT ABOUT ANY OF THE ABOVE CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN

10.During the last few minutes of Drying Programs, before the program is completed, the final AIR FLUFF phase is entered (fabrics are cooled), this phase should always be allowed to complete.

11.When the program is complete. The buzzer will sound if the Alarm option was selected.

Open the door, take your laundry out, clean the filter and replace it (see Maintenance).

If the Post Creasecare option has been selected and you do not take the clothes out immediately, the clothes will tumble occasionally for 10 hours or until you open the door.

12.Unplug the dryer.

Easy Iron Program

Easy Iron is a short 10 minute programme (8 minutes of heat followed by a 2 minute Air Fluff period) which fluffs the fibers of clothing that have been left in the same position/location for an extended period of time. The cycle relaxes the fibers and makes them easier to iron and fold.

! Easy Iron is not a drying program and should not be used for wet articles of clothing.

For best results:

1. Do not load more than the maximum capacity. These numbers refer to the dry weight:

Fabric

Maximum load

Regular Cotton and Regular Cotton mix

5.5 lb / 2.5 kg

Permanent Press

4 lb / 2 kg

Denim

4 lb / 2 kg

2.Unload the dryer immediately after the end of the program, hang, fold or iron the articles and put them away. Should this not be possible, repeat the program.

The Easy Iron effect varies from one fabric to the next. It works very well on traditional fabrics like Regular Cottons or Regular Cotton mix, and less well on acrylic fibers.

Wash Care Labels

EN

Look at the labels on your garments, especially when tumble drying for the first time. The following symbols are the most common:

May be tumble dried

Do not tumble dry

Tumble dry at high heat setting

Tumble dry at low heat setting

What not to tumble dry in your dryer:

Articles that contain rubber or rubber-like materials or plastic film (pillows, cushions, or PVC rainwear), any other flammable objects or objects that contain flammable substances (towels soiled with hair spray).

Glass fibres (certain types of draperies).

Items which have been dry cleaned.

Items with the ITCL Code (see Special clothing items) . These can be cleaned with special at-home dry cleaning products. Follow instructions

carefully.

Large bulky items (quilts, sleeping bags, pillows, cushions, large bedspreads etc). These expand when drying and would prevent airflow through the dryer.

7

Laundry

Special clothing items

EN

Blankets and Bedspreads: acrylic items (Acilan, Courtelle, Orion, Dralon) must be dried with special care on LOW heat setting. Avoid drying for a long period of time.

Pleated or creased garments: read the manufacturer’s drying instructions on the garment.

Starched articles: do not dry these with non-starched items. Make sure that as much of the starch solution is removed from the load as possible before placing it in the dryer. Do not over-dry: the starch will become powdery and leave your clothing limp, which defeats the purpose of starch.

Times are approximate and can vary depending upon:

Amount of water retained in clothes after spin cycle: towels and delicates retain a lot of water.

Fabrics: items that are the same type of fabric but different textures and thicknesses may not have the same drying time.

Quantity of laundry: single items or small loads may take longer to dry.

Dryness: If you are going to iron some of your clothes, they can be taken out while still a bit damp. Others can be left longer if you need them to be completely dry.

Heat setting.

Room temperature: if the room where the dryer is located is cold, it will take longer for the dryer to dry your clothes.

Bulk: some bulky items can be tumble dried with care. We suggest that you remove these items several times, shake them out, and return them to the dryer until finished.

! Do not over-dry your clothes.

All fabrics contain a little natural moisture, which keeps them soft and fluffy.

Ariston ASL75CXS Care, Use and Installation booklet

Maintenance and Care

When to switch off the electricity

! Unplug your dryer when not using it, when cleaning it and during maintenance activities.

Clean the filter after each cycle

The filter is an important part of your dryer:

it accumulates lint and fluff that is formed while drying. When finished drying, clean the filter by rinsing it under running water or with your vacuum cleaner. Should the filter become clogged up, the airflow inside the dryer will be seriously compromised: drying times lengthen and you will consume more energy. It may also damage your dryer.

The filter is found in front of the dryer trim (see diagram). Removing the filter:

1.Pull the plastic grip of the filter upwards (see diagram).

2.Clean the filter and replace it correctly.

Ensure the filter is fully located flush into the tumble dryer trim.

! Do not use the dryer without replacing the filter.

Check the drum after each cycle

Turn the drum manually in order to remove small items (handkerchiefs) that could have been left behind.

Cleaning the condenser unit

EN

Periodically (every month) remove the condenser unit and clean any build up of fluff from between the plates by rinsing it under the tap with cold water.

This should be done with cold water from the rear of the condenser.

To remove the condenser:

1.Unplug the dryer and open the door.

2.Pull open the condenser cover (see diagram). Release the three catches by turning 90˚ counterclockwise then pull on the grip and remove from the dryer.

3.Clean the surface of the seals and replace, making sure that the catches have been secured.

Cleaning the dryer

External parts in metal or plastic and rubber parts can be cleaned with a damp cloth.

Periodically (every 6 months) vacuum the front air intake grille and vents at the rear of the dryer, to remove any build up of fluff, lint or dust. Also to remove accumulation of fluff from the front of the condenser and filter areas, clean occasionally with a vacuum cleaner.

!Do not use solvents or abrasives.

!Your dryer uses special bearing components which do not need lubrication.

!Have your dryer checked regularly by authorized technicians to ensure electrical and mechanical safety.

Cleaning the drum

! Do not use abrasives, steel wool or stainless steel cleaning agents to clean the drum.

A coloured film may start to appear on the stainless steel drum, this may be caused by a combination of water and, or cleaning agents such as fabric conditioner from the wash. This coloured film will not affect the dryer performance.

Where to put your dryer

Check local codes before choosing a location. Some codes do not permit installation in a garage, closet, mobile home or bedroom.

DO NOT install the dryer in an area where gasoline or other inflammable materials are kept or stored.

When operating the dryer, there has to be adequate ventilation. Make sure you put the dryer in an environment that is not damp and has proper air circulation throughout. Airflow around the dryer is essential to condense the water produced during washing, the dryer will not operate sufficiently in an enclosed space or cupboard. If installed in a closet we recommend that you leave the door open when the dryer is in use.

! If using the dryer in a small room or cold room some condensation could be experienced.
