SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
GENERAL
Please read the instruction manual and save it for future reference.
• Please do not use the tumble dryer if you have not read and
understood these instructions or use fi rst.
• Failure to observe the instructions for use or inappropriate use of the tumble
dryer may result in damage to the laundry or appliance, or injury to the user.
• Instructions for use are available on our website at www.asko.com.
• Your dryer is intended solely for household use.
• Before connecting the dryer to the power mains, please read carefully the
instructions for use that describe the dryer and its correct and safe use. The
instructions apply to several appliance types or models; thus, settings or
equipment may be described herein which is not available in your dryer.
• Leave any repairs and similar tasks on the dryer to an expert. Unprofessional
repair may result in an accident or major malfunction.
• After installation, the dryer should stand still for two hours before it is
connected to the power mains.
• At least two persons are required to install the tumble dryer on top of a
washing machine.
• The dryer may not be connected to the power mains using an extension
cord.
• Do not connect the tumble dryer to an electrical outlet intended for an
electric shaver or hair dryer.
•
If the power cord is damaged, it has to be replaced by the manufacturer,
an authorized service technician, or a similarly qualifi ed person, in order to
avoid any hazards.
The appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device,
•
such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off
by a utility.
• After the drying process, unplug the dryer power cord from the power
outlet.
• In case of incorrect appliance connection, incorrect use, or servicing by an
unauthorized person, the user shall bear the cost of any damage.
• Air in the dryer environment should not contain dust particles.
The air where the dryer is installed should be thoroughly ventilated to prevent
reverse fl ow of gases released from the gas appliances with open fi re (e.g.
fi replaces).
• Do not evacuate the air from the dryer through channels used for appliances
or devices that use natural gas or other fuels for their operation (only applies
to the evacuation dryer).
3
• Do not dry unwashed laundry in the dryer.
• Laundry stained with oil, acetone, alcohol, oil derivatives, stain removers,
turpentine, wax, and wax removers should be washed in a washing machine
with hot water and detergent before it is dried in the dryer.
• Clothing that includes latex, rubber parts, shower and bathing caps, and
laundry or covers with rubber foam may not be dried in the dryer.
• Use laundry conditioners or similar products in compliance with
manufacturer's instructions.
• Do not place the dryer behind lockable or sliding door, or door with a hinge
on the opposite side of the dryer door hinge. Install the dryer in such way that
the door can always be freely opened.
• Never block the air exhaust (evacuation opening).
• Do not place the dryer on a carpet with long fi bres as this may impede air
circulation.
• The air in the room where the dryer is installed may not contain dust
particles.
• Make sure the fi bres do not accumulate around the dryer.
•
Remove all objects such as lighters and matches from the pockets.
• After installation, wait for 24 hours before using the appliance. If the dryer
has to be laid down on one of the sides during transport or servicing, place it
with its left side, viewing from the appliance front, downwards (only applies to
dryers with a heat pump).
• The appliance may not be in contact with a wall or adjacent furniture.
• If the dryer is connected to an air exhaust system already used for another
appliance, a non-return valve must be installed. Reverse fl ow into the dryer
could damage the appliance, and the non-return valve prevents such reverse
fl ow (only applies to condenser dryers and dryers with a heat pump).
• A fl oat will switch off the appliance if the condensed water pipe is clogged
or if there is a risk of overfl owing of the condensed water accumulated in the
condensed water tank (only applies to condenser dryers and dryers with a
heat pump).
• If you wish to move the dryer or store it in a non-heated room during winter, it
is essential that you fi rst empty the condensed water tank (only applies to the
condenser dryers and dryers with a heat pump).
• Maximum drying capacity in kg (for the Cotton program) is indicated on the
rating plate.

SAFETY
• Only use the dryer to dry laundry that was washed with water. Do not
dry any laundry that was washed or cleaned with fl ammable cleaners or
substances (such as gasoline, trichloroethylene etc.) as this may result in an
explosion.
• If you have cleaned your clothes with industrial cleaners or chemical
substances, do not dry them in the dryer.
• The air exhaust hose may not be connected to an active chimney used to
evacuate smoke or waste gases; into a shaft intended for ventilating rooms
with combustion equipment; or into a chimney used by third parties. If smoke
or waste gases return to the room where the dryer is installed, there is a
danger of poisoning (only applies to evacuation dryer).
• The dryer is protected with an automatic switch-off system in case
of overheating. The system switches off the dryer immediately if the
temperature is too high (only applies to evacuation and condenser dryer).
• The overheating automatic switch-off system may activate if the net fi lter is
clogged. Clean the fi lter, wait for the machine to cool down, and try running
it again. If the machine still fails to switch on, call a service technician (only
applies to the evacuation and condenser dryer).
• WARNING! The back of the dryer may get very hot during
operation. Wait for the dryer to cool down completely before touching
its back side.
• If you open the dryer door during the drying process, the clothes may be
very hot and there is a risk of burns.
• Never stop the drying cycle before it is completed; if you do interrupt the
cycle for any reason, be careful when removing the laundry from the drum
as it is very hot. Quickly remove the laundry from the drum and spread it to
allow it to cool down as quickly as possible.
CHILD SAFETY
• Do not allow the children to play with the dryer.
• Prevent your children and pets to enter the dryer drum.
• Before closing the dryer door and running the program, make sure there is
nothing except laundry in the drum (e.g. if a child climbed into the dryer drum
and closed the door from the inside).
• Activate the child lock.
See chapter "SYSTEM SETTINGS", section Child Lock.
• Do not let children younger than three years to come near the dryer,
unless they are under constant supervision.

INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
DRYER PLACEMENT
The dryer can be either free standing or installed onto
a washing machine.
The dryer emits heat. Therefore, do not place it in a
very small room, as the drying process may be longer
due to limited amount of available air.
Do not place the dryer in a room where
temperature can drop below 0 °C, as the machine
may not operate correctly at such low temperatures or
freeze with damages as consequences.
Install the dryer in a room with adequate ventilation and
a temperature between 15 °C and 25 °C.
Do not place the dryer behind lockable or sliding
door, or door with a hinge on the opposite side of the
dryer door hinge. Install the dryer in such way that the
door can always be freely opened.
Never block the air exhaust (evacuation opening).
At least two persons are required to install the
tumble dryer on top of a washing machine.
Do not place the dryer on a carpet with long fi bres
as this may impede air circulation.
Free-standing appliance
The dryer may be placed adjacent to a washing
machine.
If the friction between the dryer feet and the fl oor is not
suffi cient, the dryer may move during operation. To
prevent the dryer from sliding around, use a non-slip
support or pad.
Deviations of the dryer
100 mm
The appliance may not be in contact with a wall or
adjacent furniture. For optimum operation of the drying

DRAINING THE CONDENSATE
The moisture from the laundry is extracted in the condenser unit and accumulated in the condensate tank.
Condensate tank has to be emptied regularly (see chapter "CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE").
Interruption of the drying cycle due to full condensate tank can be avoided by running the condensate
discharge hose found at the back of the appliance directly into a drain.

C
max 300 mm
A
Remove the small short hose from the attachment
1
(A).
Connect the supplied drain hose to the same
2
attachment (A).
Run the condensate drain hose into a drain. Tie the
hose onto a tap (B) so that it cannot slip during use.
The drain hose can also be fed into the washbasin
siphon (C) or directly into the fl oor drain (D).
Then, the water is pumped directly into a washbasin, a
siphon, or a fl oor drain.
Do not pull the drain hose, and make sure it is not
under tension, clamped, or bent.
14
If you decide to run the condensate drain hose into a drain, siphon, or washbasin, make sure the hose is
securely fastened. This will prevent any water spillage which could result in unexpected damage.
Always use hoses that are attached to the appliance.
If the dryer is connected to an air exhaust system already used for another appliance, a non-return valve
must be installed. Return fl ow into the dryer could damage the appliance and the non-return valve prevents
such fl ow.
