en Intended use
The dryer should:
■Not be operated in outdoor areas,
■Be operated for domestic use only and
■Only be used for drying and refreshing fabrics that are labelled as suitable for tumble-drying on the care label.
■The dryer can be operated by children 8 years old and older, by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental abilities and by persons with insufficient experience or knowledge if they are supervised or have been instructed in its use by a responsible adult.

:Warning Risk of death!
There is a risk of electric shock as the dryer is operated with electricity.
You should therefore observe the following:
■ Never touch or hold the mains plug with wet hands.
■ Only pull out the mains cable directly at the plug and never by the cable, as this could damage it.
■ Do not use extension cables, multiple plugs or connectors.
■ Only have the mains cable replaced by our after-sales service.

:Warning
You should therefore observe the following:
■ Do not leave the dryer unattended when children or other people who cannot assess the risks are nearby.
■ Do not let children play with the dryer.
■ Children may become entangled in packaging or film if allowed to play with them, or they may pull them over their heads and suffocate. Keep packaging, packaging parts and film out of the reach of children.
■ Children may lock themselves in the dryer. Therefore, when an appliance has reached the end of its service life, unplug it from the mains, cut through the mains cable and destroy the lock on the dryer door.

:Warning Danger of death!
■Do not use the dryer if industrial chemicals have been used to clean it.
■Laundry that has come into contact with solvents, oil, wax, wax remover, paint, grease or stain remover may ignite or cause an explosion when drying is in progress. Before drying, wash the laundry in hot water with detergent.
■Coal dust or flour in the area around the dryer may cause an explosion.
■Only replace defective components with genuine spare parts.

en Safety instructions
■Only use the dryer for drying and freshening up fabrics at home and for fabrics that have been washed with water and are suitable for tumble-drying.
Any other use is not considered intended use and is prohibited.
■Foamed material or foam rubber may become deformed or melt during drying. Do not dry any laundry that contains foamed material or foam rubber.
■Do not lean or sit on the dryer door, as the dryer may tip over.
■Loose cables or hoses may cause you to trip. Avoid tripping hazards.
■Light things, such as hair, may be sucked into the air inlet while drying is in progress; keep these away from the dryer.
■Heat is not added during the last part of the drying cycle (cooling cycle), to ensure that the laundry remains at a temperature that will not damage it.

Environmental protection |

■Spin the laundry before drying. The drier the laundry, the shorter the drying time will be, thus consuming less energy.
■Load the dryer with the maximum load.
■Ventilate the room and keep the air inlet on the dryer free to ensure air exchange.
■Clean the fluff filter after each drying cycle. If the fluff filter is dirty, the drying time is prolonged and energy consumption is increased.
■Energy saving mode: If the dryer is not operated for a prolonged period, it automatically switches off before the program starts and when the program has ended to save energy. The display panel and indicator lamps go off after a few minutes and the Start button flashes. To activate the lighting, press any button, open or close the dryer door or turn the program selector.
