low dust room s. Do not block or cover
the appliance's vent slots.

• This appliance must be connected to
a properly installed earthed outlet,
protected by a fuse of adequate capacity.

Do not operate the appliance if the

by the hot and moist textiles!

• Keep children away from the
appliance! Electric appliances are no

Textiles treated with cleaning materials
or having been dry cleaned must not
be dried in the appliance afterwards.
The vapors generated may cause a risk
of fire or explosion, poisoning hazard
or damage to the appliance!

• Periodically clean all important parts
of the appliance (see "After drying …").
Operating safety, drying time and energy
consumption depend on such periodical
cleaning.

• In case of malfunctions which cannot
be rectified by the information contained
in this manual:

the customer service.
Never attempt to repair the appliance
yourself! You could endanger your own
life and the life of other users! Only

Disposal

Where to leave the packaging?

The plastic wrapping must not get
into the hands of children! Risk of
suffocation!

The packaging is made of materials
which can be recycled.

• Separate the packing material by type:

- Styropor® parts and plastic wrapping
go to a valuable substance collection
point;

- Battens go into bulky refuse.
The packaging is not to be disposed of
in the regular household garbage!

What to do with the old appliance?

Dispose of your old appliance in an

environmentally friendly manner.

• Ask you dealer or your local garbage
collection service how to best dispose of
your old appliance.

Before giving the appliance into bulky
garbage, disconnect it from the mains,
cut off the power cable and disable the
door lock– so children will not be
endangered.

Installation

The proper location

For drying the appliance requires a sufficient

supply of clean, cool room air.

Do not operate the appliance together
with furnaces (gas,61, oil-, coal-fired) or
fireplaces. The airflow may aspirate their
exhaust fumes, withdraw oxygen and
extinguish flames.
Poisoning hazard!

Operate the appliance only in well
ventilated, low dust rooms. Do not block
or cover the appliance's vent slots.

The floor must have a sufficient load
bearing capacity! If, for example, you
are stacking a washer and the dryer, this
combination can– when loaded– reach
a total weight of 160 kg.

Important Advice

The length of the hose and the highest point
over the floor have to be taken into
consideration for the draining of the water.

Important:

• Place appliance on an even and level floor

only.

• Do not place appliance on the power

cable.

• Keep at least 1 cm distance to walls or

other furniture.

Washer/dryer combination

This appliance can be put on top of any of
our washing machines.

• A special stacking kit is required (stock

no.2955600100), available at the
customer service or specialized dealer.

Leveling

• Adjust feet until the appliance is
leveled and does not rock. Checking with a
spirit level is recommended.

Important:

•Adjust by the feet only, do not use wooden
wedges or similar. Never remove the feet!

Changing hinge position

If you wish to open the door to the other
side, you can have the hinge position changed
from left hand to the right and or vice versa
by our customer service.

Install the hose without kinks!
Install as follows:
1 . At the water drainage connecting pull up

the condensate hose out of the appliance
by hand. Don’t use pliers!

2. Connect the drain hose securely to the
water drainage connection.

3. Lay and connect the drain hose to the
drainage

Connecting the drain hose

The water (condense water) accumulated
during the drying process is caught in the
water tank, which you have to empty after
every drying.

You can drain the water continuously through
the included drain hose by connecting it to
a spout or other water drainage.

In this case you don’t need to empty the
water tank after every drying cycle. The
indicator “Empty water tank” will flash anyway
at the end of every program. .

4. Secure the drain hose against slipping
when hang it over the sink or tub.
