Laundry

Identification of fabrics

Observe the treatment symbols on the textile labels. They provide valuable

information as well as limitations about

the drying process.

Do not dry the following textiles in the dryer:

- Air-tight textiles (e.g. rubberized)

- Delicate fabrics (silk, synthetic curtains)

I i I Dry woolen or wool-rich textiles

with dryer rack only!

I i I Use the time program “Airfluff/No

heat" to dry articles containing foam rubber or similarly textured rubber-like materials.

Drying tips In principle, the following applies to all

drying programs:

- To ensure a uniform drying result, sort the laundry according to fabric type and drying program.

- Fasten zippers, hooks and eyes. Fasten loose belts, apron strings, etc..

- Do not overdry easy-care laundry risk of wrinkling! Leave laundry to dry in the air.

- Do not iron laundry immediately after drying. Place the laundry in a pile for a short while. Residual moisture will then be distributed uniformly.

- Knitted textiles (e.g. T-shirts, cotton jersey laundry) often shrink when dried for the first time. Do not use the "Very dry/Extra dry" program.

Program selection

For optimum drying results your dryer offers several program groups and additional options.

Select the required drying program from the program table according to the examples (see page 16).

Automatic programs

There are automatic programs for different types of textiles (Regular/Cotton ECOSENSOR, Permanent Press ECOSENSOR, Mix).

at least once a year to prevent clogging. A partially clogged exhaust can lengthen the drying time.

□ Turn off the circuit breaker □ Pull out power supply plug □ Disconnect the duct from the

dryer.

□ Vacuum and reconnect the duct. Cleaning the moisture

sensor

The moisture sensor has to be cleaned

because a fine layer of transparent buildup is deposited on the sensors.
