AThis product has been designed for home use only.

Your machine can be operated at temperatures between +5°C and +35°C.

The appliance must not be installed behind a lockable door, a sliding door or a door with a hinge on the opposite side to that of the tumble dryer.

Do not install or store this appliance where it will be exposed to the weather.

Do not tamper with controls.

Never attempt to repair the machine yourself.

For malfunctions that cannot be solved by information in the operating manual: Turn off and unplug the appliance and call an authorized service agent.

This appliance must be 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.

B WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service represantative or personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

Power cord plug must be within easy reach after installation.

To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not use extension cords, multi-plugs or an adapter to connect the dryer to electrical mains.

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.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

The appliance must not be operated unless it is repaired! There is the risk of electric shock!

Ventilation openings in the base must not be obstructed by a carpet, etc.

Exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue, which is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.

Adequate ventilation has to be provided to avoid the back flow of gases into the room from appliances burning other fuels, including open fires.

5 - EN

Do not dry articles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted with petrol/ gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or other flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.

Do not use the tumble dryer if industrial chemicals have been used for cleaning.

Do not dry unwashed items in the tumble dryer.

Items that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers should be washed in hot water with an extra amount of detergent before being dried in the tumble dryer.

Do not place your machine on a long pile rug or on similar surfaces.

Operate your machine in a well ventilated, dust-free environment.

Do not block the air ducts in front of and under the machine with materials such as long pile rugs or kitchen unit plinths.

B Make sure that your machine is not placed on the power cable.

B Keep at least 3 cm from the edges of other furniture.

Under Counter Installation

Leave at least 3 cm of space between the side and rear walls of the machine and the walls of the counter/cupboard when installing your machine under a counter or in a cupboard. Never use the tumble dryer without top plate.

Adjusting the feet

In order to ensure that your machine operates more silently and vibration-free, it must stand level and balanced on its feet. Front feet of your machine can

be adjusted. Balance the machine by adjusting the feet.

1.Loosen the feet by hand.

2.Adjust them until the machine stands level and firmly.

C Do not use any tools to loosen the adjustable feet. Otherwise, they can be damaged.

C Never unscrew the adjustable feet from their housings.

2 plastic pieces supplied together with the Operating Instructions prevent your machine from slipping on wet and

slippery surfaces. To install these plastic parts:

1.Tilt your machine to backwards.

2.Fit the plastic parts to the front adjustable feet. Press on the plastic parts to fix them in their places.

3.Check the balance of your machine again and readjust the adjustable feet if necessary.

Ventilation hose and connection (for products equipped with an outlet vent)

Ventilation hose assures exhausting of the air from inside the machine.

Vented dryer has 1 air outlet.

Stainless sheet metal or aluminum pipes can be used instead of the hose. The diameter of the pipe to be used should be minimum 10 cm.

Maximum hose and pipe lengths are given in the table below.

C Each elbow and other passages should be subtracted from the above maximum length.

To connect a ventilation hose;

1.Connect the air outlet hose to the hose spacer piece by turning it anticlockwise.

2.Make the hose passages as shown below.

7 - EN

C Exhaust of humid air from the dryer into the room is inconvenient. It may damage the walls and furniture in the room.

C The ventilation hose can be routed outdoors via a window or it can be connected to an air outlet in the wall (see diagram below).

C Air outlet hose must be extended directly to the outdoors. There must be a small number of elbows as not to hinder air ventilation.

C To prevent water accumulation in the hose, make sure that it is not folded on the floor.

B The air ventilation hose should not be connected to the chimney of a stove or a fireplace.

B Do not operate your machine at the same time with heaters such as a coal or gas stove. Airflow may cause the chimney to flare up. Airflow may cause the chimney to flame up.

Connection to a water drain (for products equipped with a condenser )

In products equipped with a condenser unit the water accumulated during the drying cycle is collected in the water tank. You should drain the accumulated water after each washing cycle.

You can directly send the accumulated water out through the water drain hose supplied with the machine instead of periodically draining the water collected in the water tank.

Connecting the water drain hose;

1.Remove the hose on the machine by pulling it out from its end. Do not use any tools to take out the hose. Attach the drain hose adaptor to the end of this hose.

2.Connect the special drain hose supplied with the machine to the hose adaptor fitting.

3.The other end of the drain hose

can be directly connected to the wastewater drain or to the washbasin. The fitting must always be secured in all types of connections. Your house may be flooded if the hose gets out of its housing during water discharge.

C When you direct the water drain out, “Water Tank” warning LED will light up at the end of each programme.

Important:

The hose should be attached to a height of maximum 80 cm.

You must be careful not the pinch or bend the hose.

The end of the hose should not be bent, it should not be stepped on and it must not be folded between the drain and the machine.
