Certain objects may ignite
when drying is in progress, or even cause the appliance to catch fire or explode. Remove any lighters or matches from pockets on items of clothing.
Risk of explosions/fire!
If there is coal dust or flour in
the air around the appliance, this may cause an explosion. Make sure that the area around the appliance is kept clean when it is in operation.
:Warning
Risk of fire/material damage/ damage to the appliance!
If a program is terminated before the drying cycle has finished, this prevents the laundry from cooling down sufficiently and may cause the laundry to ignite, or may result in material damage or damage to the appliance.
During the last part of the
drying cycle, the laundry in the drum is not heated (cooling cycle). This is to ensure that it remains at a temperature at which it will not be damaged.
Do not switch off the
appliance before the drying cycle has finished unless you remove all items of laundry from the drum immediately and spread them out (to dissipate the heat).

:Warning
Risk of death!
There is a risk of electric shock if you touch live components. Do not immerse the Aqua-Stop safety valve* in water (it contains an electric valve). * Depending on the model
Observe the following when connecting the appliance:
Notes
Only operate the appliance using
cold mains water.
Do not connect the appliance to the
mixer tap of an unpressurised hot­water boiler.
Do not use a used supply hose. Only
use the supply hose supplied or one that was purchased from an authorised specialist retailer.
Do not bend, squash, modify or cut
through the water supply hose (otherwise its strength is no longer guaranteed).
Only tighten the screw connections
by hand. If the screw connections are tightened too much with a tool (pliers), the thread may be damaged.
Connection
1. Connect the water supply hose to
the water tap (¾" = 26.4 mm) and to the appliance: – Model: Standard
– Model: AquaSecure
– Model: Aqua-Stop
Optimum water pressure in the supply network
At least 100 kPa (1 bar) Maximum 1000 kPa (10 bar)
When the tap is open, the water flow is at least 8 l/min.
If the water pressure is higher than this, a pressure-reducing valve must be installed.
Tip: Connect also an external water
filter (depending on the model) between water supply hose and tap. The filter filters dirt particles out of the water. Water filter must be cleaned regularly to remove contaminants. This will prevent blockages. See also ~ separate installation and cleaning instruction for water filter.
