3 Initial preparations for drying
Things to be done for energy saving:
• Make sure that you operate the product
at its full capacity but pay attention to
not exceeding it.
• Spin your laundry at the highest speed
possible when washing them. Thus,
the drying time is shortened and energy
consumption is decreased.

drying.
• Lint and fibres released from the laundry
to the air during the drying cycle are
collected in the “Lint Filter”. Make sure
that you clean the filters before or after
each drying.
• In models with condenser, make sure
that you clean the condenser regularly
at least once every month or after every
30 drying cycles.
• In vented models, follow the chimney
connection rules in the user manual and
pay attention to the chimney cleaning.
• Ventilate the room, where the dryer is
located, well during drying.
• For power saving in models with
lamps, at times when your dryer is not
in use, keep the door closed if the On/
Off button is pressed (if the dryer is
energized).
