Installation
m
B
A
GB
Where to install the tumble dryer
If the dryer is installed below a worktop,
ensure there are 10 mm
between the upper panel
of the dryer and any
objects above it, and 15
mm between the sides
of the machine and the
walls or furniture units
adjacent to it. This ensures adequate air circulation. Make sure the
air inlets on the rear panel are not blocked or
obstructed.
Ventilation
This appliance gently dries laundry by taking in cold, clean
and relatively dry air, heating it and passing it through the
fabric. To facilitate the drying process, damp air is expelled at
the rear, through a ventilation hose. When the dryer is in use,
there has to be adequate ventilation to avoid a back flow
of gases into the room from appliances burning other fuels,
including open fires.
Mobile ventilation system
When using the tumble dryer with the mobile ventilation
system, a ventilation hose must be connected. The hose
should be securely fastened to the ventilation hole at the
rear of the appliance (see “Description of the tumble dryer”).
We recommend the hose is connected to an outlet near
the tumble dryer, if possible. If it cannot be installed in a
permanent spot, the tumble dryer will still function perfectly
well if the ventilation hose is passed through a partiallyopened window.
Make sure you do not point the ventilation hose towards the
air inlet, which is located on the rear of the appliance.
The ventilation hose should not exceed a maximum length
of 2.4 metres; it should also be shaken frequently to remove
any fluff, dust or water deposits inside it. Make sure you do
not crush the hose.
Fixed ventilation system
We recommend the ventilation hose is connected to a
ventilation system for windows or doors, available from the
retailer which originally sold you the appliance or from your
local spare parts stockist.
Wall ventilation hole
1. Leave an opening in the wall to the left of the tumble dryer
installation site.
2. Make the hose as short and straight as possible, in order
to prevent any moisture from condensing and leaking back
into the appliance.
3. The hole in the wall must also be straight and pointing
downwards, so that the flow of air coming out is not
impeded.
Areas A and B should be checked frequently, to prevent the
accumulation of fluff or debris, particularly if the tumble dryer
is used very often. The hose adaptor must be fitted correctly,
in order to prevent damp air from coming back into the room.
Window ventilation hole
The ventilation hole should be directly behind the dryer in
order to keep the hose as short
as possible.
Make sure you do not push the
tumble dryer too far backwards,
as this could lead to the
ventilation hose being crushed,
bent or even disconnected.
There should be no cuts, kinks
or “U”-shaped bends in the
hose, as these could impede
ventilation or trap condensation.
The end of the hose must be facing downwards, in order to
prevent the hot, damp air from forming condensation in the
room or the tumble dryer.
Make sure that the tumble dryer is adequately ventilated,
and that the end of the ventilation hose is not pointing
towards the air inlet pipe on the
rear of the appliance.
The ventilation hose must
always be fitted to ensure
optimum performance.
Make sure that the ventilation
hose and the air inlet vents are
not obstructed or blocked.
Do not let the tumble dryer
recirculate exhaust air.
Improper use of the tumble
dryer may result in fire hazards.
Ventilation through an open window
The air emitted by the tumble
dryer must not be expelled in
the same duct as used for the
fumes produced by different
appliances which burn gas or
other fuels.
Do not discharge the exhaust
air into an extraction system
or any duct with an extractor
fan. This will affect the way the
thermal controls operate and can result in a fire hazard.
Make sure that the room in which the
tumble dryer is installed is not damp, and
that it is adequately ventilated.
We do not recommend that the dryer is
installed in a cupboard but the dryer must
never be installed behind a lockable door, a
sliding door or a door with a hinge on the
opposite side to that of the dryer door.
The appliance must be installed with the
rear surface placed against a wall.

Electrical connections
Before plugging the appliance into the
socket, check the following:
Make sure your hands are dry.
The socket must have an earth connection.
The socket must be able to withstand the
machine’s maximum power output as
indicated on the rating plate (see Description
of the tumble dryer).
GB
The power supply voltage must fall within
the values indicated on the rating plate (see
Description of the tumble dryer).
Do not use extension leads. Do not pull the
power supply cable. Do not use multiple plug
adaptors if the appliance is fitted with a plug.
For appliances with fitted plug, if the plug is
not suitable for you socket outlet, contact a
qualified technician.
The dryer must not be installed outdoors,
even if the space is sheltered.
Once installed, the dryer’s electrical wire
and plug must be within reach.
The power cord must not be bent or
squashed.
Levelling the tumble dryer
The tumble dryer should be installed level in order to
operate correctly.
After installing the tumble dryer in its permanent position,
make sure it is level; check its side-to-side levelling first,
followed by front-to-back.
If the tumble dryer is not perfectly level, use a wooden block
to support it while you adjust the two front feet, up or down
as necessary.
Before you start your dryer
Once the tumble dryer is installed, clean the inside of the drum
before operating it and remove any dirt accumulated during
transportation.
If the plug being replaced is a nonrewirable type, then the cut-off plug must be
disposed of safely. DO NOT leave it where it
can be inserted into a socket and create a
shock hazard.
The electric cord must be regularly
checked. If the supply cord is damaged, it
must be replaced by service agent. (see
Service).
The manufacturer denies any
responsibility should any of these rules not be
followed.
If in doubt about any of the above
consult a qualified electrician.

vents and the vent tube should never be
obstructed (see Installation).
• Never direct the vent tube outlet towards
the air intake at the back of the machine.
• Never allow the tumble dryer to recycle
exhaust air.
• Never use the dryer on carpeting where the
pile height would prevent air from entering
the dryer from the base.
• 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, is
securely in place (see Maintenance).
• Do not overload the dryer (see Laundry for
maximum loads).
• Do not load items that are dripping wet.
• �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.
• Do not turn off the dryer when there are still
warm items inside.
• Clean the filter after each use (see
Maintenance).
• Do not allow lint to collect around the dryer.
• Never climb on top of the dryer. It could
result in damage.
• Always follow electrical standards and
requirements (see Installation).
• Always buy original spare parts and
accessories (see Service).
To minimise the risk of fire in your tumble
dryer, the following should be observed:
• 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.
• �Do not dry garments that have been treated
with chemical products.
• Do not tumble dry items that have
been spotted or soaked with vegetable
or cooking oils, this constitutes a fire
hazard. Oil-affected items can ignite
spontaneously,especially when exposed to
heat sources such as a tumble dryer. The
items become warm, causing an oxidisation
reaction with the oil, Oxidisation creates
heat. If the heat cannot escape, items can
become hot enough to catch fire. Piling,
stacking or storing oil-effected items can
prevent heat from escaping and so create
a fire hazard.If it is unavoidable that fabrics
containing vegetable or cooking oil or those
that have been contaminated with hair care
products be placed in a tumble dryer they
should first be washed with extra detergent
- this will reduce, but not eliminate the
hazard. They should not be removed from
the dryer and piled or stacked while hot.
• Do not tumble dry items that have
previously been cleaned in or washed in,
soaked in or soiled with petrol/gasoline,
dry cleaning solvents or other flammable
or explosive substances. Highly flammable
substances commonly used in domestic
environments including cooking oil,
acetone, denatured alcohol, kerosene,
spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax
removers. Ensure these items have been
washed in hot water with an extra amount
of detergent before being dried in the
tumble dryer.

Care and maintenance
GB
Disconnecting the power supply
! Disconnect the dryer when not in use or
during cleaning and maintenance operations.
Cleaning the filter after each cycle
The filter is a fundamental component of the
dryer: its function is to collect lint and fluff that
form during drying.
Clean the filter once
drying is completed, by
rinsing it under running
water or cleaning it with a
vacuum cleaner. Should
the filter become clogged, the flow of air inside
the dryer will be seriously
hampered: drying times
becomes longer and
more energy is consumed. Moreover, the dryer
may become damaged.
The filter is located in
front of the dryer seal
(see Picture).
Removing the filter:
1. Pull the filter’s plastic handle upwards (see
Picture).
2. Clean the fluff off the filter and replace it
correctly. Ensure that the filter is pushed fully
home.
! Do not use the dryer unless the filter has
been replaced in its holder.
Checking the drum after each cycle
Rotate the drum manually to remove smaller items (handkerchiefs) that could have been left inside the dryer.
Cleaning the drum
! Avoid using abrasives, steel wool or stainless steel cleaning
agents to clean the drum. A coloured film may appear on the
stainless steel drum surface: it may be caused by a combination of water and/or cleaning agents such as wash-softeners.
This coloured film does not affect the dryer’s performance.
Emptying the water container after each
cycle
Remove the water container and
empty it into a sink or other
suitable drain outlet, then
replace it correctly.
Always check the water container and empty it before starting
a new drying cycle.
-Failure to empty the water container may cause the
following:
- The dryer stops heating (thus the load may still be
damp at the end of the drying cycle).
- The “Empty water container” LED activates to show
that the water container is full.
Priming the Water Collection System
When your dryer is new, the Water Container will not
collect Water until the system is primed, this will take
1 or 2 drying cycles. Once primed it will collect Water
during every cycle.
Cleaning the Heat Pump Filter Unit
• Periodically (every 5 drying cycles) remove
Heat pump filter unit and clean any build up
of fluff from the surface of the filter by rinsing
it under running water or with your vacuum
cleaner.
We however recommend that you clean this
filter after every drying cycle to optimize the
dryers performance.
To remove Heat pump
filter unit:
1. Unplug the dryer and
open the door.
2. Remove the filter unit
by rotating the 4 clips
to the vertical position
then pulling the filter
unit towards you.
3. Separate the two
parts of the filter unit and
clean the surface of the
filter.
! Warning: The front of
the heat pump is made
from thin metal plates.
Take care that you do
not damage these or cut
yourself when cleaning,
removing or replacing
the filter unit.
6
4.Whenever you clean
the Heat pump filter
unit always clean any
build up of fluff from
the surface of the metal
plates. Carefully clean
this fluff off with a damp
cloth,sponge or vacuum
cleaner. Never use your
Fingers.
5. Assemble the two parts of the filter clean
the surface of the seals and replace with the
4 clips into the horizontal position, sure that
the catches have been secured.
Cleaning the tumble dryer
• The external metal, plastic and rubber parts can be clea-
ned with a damp cloth.
• Clean the front air intake grille regularly (every 6 months)
with a vacuum cleaner to remove any lint, fluff or dust
deposits. Furthermore, remove any lint deposits from the
front part of the condenser and from the filter area, using a
vacuum cleaner every so often.
! Do not use solvents or abrasives.
! Have the dryer checked regularly by authorised technical
personnel in order to ensure that the electrical and mechani-
cal parts work safely (see Assistance).

GB
Sorting laundry
• Check the symbols on the care labels of the various
garments to verify whether the garments can be safely
tumble dried.
• Sort laundry according to the type of fabric.
• Empty all pockets and check for loose buttons.
• Close zips and hooks and fasten belts and strings without
tightening them.
• Wring out garments to remove the maximum amount of
water possible.
!
Do not load the dryer when garments are dripping wet.
Maximum load sizes
Do not overload the drum.
The following values indicate the weight of dry garments:
Natural fibres: maximum kg
Synthetic fibres: maximum kg

! Do not overload the dryer as this may result is reduced
drying performance.
Care labels
Always check the care labels, especially when placing
garments in the tumble dryer for the first time. Below are the
most commonly used symbols:
May be tumble dried.
Do not tumble dry.
Drying times
Drying times are approximate and may vary depending on
the following:
• Amount of water retained by items after the spin cycle:
towels and delicate items retain a lot of water.
• Fabrics: items of the same fabric, but with different texture
and thickness may have different drying times.
• Amount of laundry: single items and small loads may take
longer to dry.
• Drying: if items are to be ironed, they can be removed
from the dryer while still slightly damp. Items that require
complete drying can be left longer.
• Heat setting.
• Temperature of the room: the lower the temperature of the
room, the longer it will take for the dryer to dry clothing.
• Bulk: certain bulky items require special care during the
drying process. We suggest removing these items and
replacing them in the dryer once they have been shaken
out: repeat this procedure several times during the course
of the drying cycle.
! Do not over-dry items.
All fabrics contain natural dampness which helps to keep
them soft and fluffy.
Tumble dry – high heat.
Tumble dry – low heat.

Disposal of old household appliances
European Directive 2012/19/EC concerning Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) states that household
appliances should not be disposed of using the normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted appliances should be collected
separately in order to optimise the cost of re-using and recycling materials comprising the machine, while preventing
potential damage to public health and the environment. The crossed-out wheeled bin symbol appears on all products to
remind owners of the obligations regarding separate waste collection.
Owners should contact their local authorities or appliance dealers for further information concerning the correct disposal of household appliances.
This appliance has been designed, constructed and distributed in compliance with the
requirements of European Directives:
- LVD 2014/35/EU, EMC 2014/30/EU and RoHS 2011/65/EU.
