Clothes preparation
Make sure that the laundry you are going to dry
is suitable for drying in a tumble dryer, as shown
by the care symbols on each item.
Check that all fastenings are closed and that
pockets are empty. Turn the articles inside out.
Place clothes loosely in the drum to make sure
that they don't get tangled.
Maximum drying weight
● Cottons Max. 7 kg
● Synthetics Max. 3.5 kg
8
Preparing the load
Do not overload
the drum, large
items when wet
can exceed the
maximum
admissible
clothes load
(for example:
sleeping bags,
duvets).
40001810.qxd 10/09/2004 19:45 Page 8
Sort the load as follows:
● By care symbols
These can be found on the collar or inside
seam:
Suitable for tumble drying.
Tumble drying at high temperature.
Tumble drying at low temperature only.
Do not tumble dry.
If the item does not have a care label it
must be assumed that it is not suitable
for tumble drying.
● By amount and thickness
Whenever the load is bigger than the dryer
capacity, separate clothes according to
thickness (e.g. towels from thin underwear).
● By type of fabric
Cottons/linen: Towels, cotton jersey, bed and
table linen.
Synthetics: Blouses, shirts, overalls, etc.
made of polyester or polyamid, as well as
for cotton/synthetic mixes.
● By drying level
Sort into: iron dry, cupboard dry, etc. For
delicate articles press the button to
select low drying temperature.
9
40001810.qxd 10/09/2004 19:45 Page 9
Do not tumble dry:
Woollens, silk, delicate fabrics, nylon stockings,
delicate embroidery, fabrics with metallic
decorations, garments with PVC or leather
trimmings, training shoes, bulky items such as
sleeping bags, etc.
Energy saving
Only put into the tumble dryer laundry which has
been thoroughly wrung or spin-dried. The drier
the laundry the shorter the drying time thus
saving electricity.
ALWAYS
● Try to dry the maximum weight of laundry,
this will save time and electricity.
● Check that the filter is clean before every
drying cycle.
NEVER
● Exceed the maximum weight, this will waste
time and electricity.
● Put dripping wet items into the tumble
dryer, this may damage the appliance.
Drying guide
The table shows approximate drying times,
depending on the type of fabric and dampness of
the clothes.

40001810.qxd 10/09/2004 19:45 Page 12
The water removed from the laundry during the
drying cycle is collected in a container at the
bottom of the dryer.
When the container is full the indicator on
the control panel will light, and the container
MUST be emptied. However, we recommend that
the container is emptied after each drying cycle.
NOTE: Very little water will collect during the
first few cycles of a new machine as an internal
reservoir is filled first.
To remove the container
1. Gently pull the bottom of the kickplate so
that it unclips from the dryer. The top
section can then be unhinged allowing the
kickplate to be completely removed.
2. Pull firmly on the handgrip and slide the
water container out of the dryer.
Support the container with both hands. When
full, the water container will weigh about 4kg.
3. Open the lid located on the top of the
container and empty the water.
4. Refit the lid and slide the water container
back into position. PUSH FIRMLY INTO
PLACE.
5. Refit the kickplate by engaging the hinges
at the top and 'snapping' the lower clips
into place.

4. Gently remove any dust or fluff with a cloth,
then wash the unit by holding it under a
running tap turning it so that water flows
between the plates, to remove any dust or
fluff.
5. Refit the condenser ensuring it is in the
correct way (as indicated by the arrow) and
pushed firmly into place. Lock the two levers
by turning them clockwise.
6. Refit the kickplate.

Condenser
40001810.qxd 10/09/2004 19:45 Page 14
Note: The sensor may not detect a small load of
small articles. For small loads and separate items
or pre-dried fabrics with low moisture content,
use the timed programmes. Set the programme
between 30 and 75 minutes depending on the
load size and dryness required, and select high or
low heat depending upon the fabric type.
If the sensor does not detect the item the dryer
will only operate for 10 minutes before going
into cooldown.
If the load is too large or too wet to tumble dry
the dryer will automatically go into cooldown
after 180 minutes.
15
Selecting the Programme
The Sensor Dry machine gives many options for drying the laundry to suit all
circumstances.
The table below lists the programmes and the function of each programme.
Programme
Bone Dry
Extra Dry
Cupboard Dry
Iron Dry
Medium Dry
Damp Dry
Fast Iron

Description
Select the degree of dryness that you require.
This ranges from Bone Dry for bath towels and
bathrobes, through Cupboard Dry for items that will
be put away without ironing, to the programmes
that leave the laundry suitable for ironing.
The Fast Iron programme provides a conditioning
and anticrease function. The dryer will heat the load
for 9 minutes followed by a 3 minute cool down
period and is especially good for garments which
may have been left for some time prior to ironing,
in a linen basket for example. Garments may also
become stiffened when dried outside on a washing
line or inside on radiators. The Fast Iron process
relaxes the creases in the fabric making ironing
quicker and easier.

Før tørretumbleren anvendes første gang:
● Læs venligst denne instruktionsbog
grundigt.
● Fjern alle genstande som er pakket inde i
tromlen.
● Aftør tromlens inderside og dør med en
fugtig klud for at fjerne eventuelt støv, som
har sat sig under transporten.
Klargøring af tøj
Du skal sikre, at det vasketøj, du skal til at tørre,
egner sig til tørring i en tørretumbler, som vist på
vaskemærker på hver genstand.
Kontroller at alle lukninger er lukkede, og at
lommerne er tomme. Vend vrangen ud på
genstandene. Læg tøjet løst i tromlen for at sikre,
at det ikke filtrer sig sammen.
Maksimal tørrevægt
● Bomuld, maks. 7 kg
● Syntetiske stoffer, maks. 3,5 kg
26
Forberedelse af ilægning
af tøj
Tromlen må ikke
overfyldes,
større, våde ting,
kan overstige
den maksimalt
tilladte vægt
(f.eks.: soveposer
og dyner).
40001810DAN.qxd 10/09/2004 19:53 Page 26
Sorter tøjet, der skal
lægges i, som følger:
● Efter plejesymboler
De findes i kraven eller på en indvendig
søm:
Egnet til tørring i tumbler.
Tørring i tumbler ved høj temperatur.
Kun tørring i tumbler ved lav
temperatur.
Må ikke tørres i tørretumbler.
Hvis der ikke findes noget vaskemærke,
må det betragtes som uegnet til
tørretumbling.
● Efter antal og tykkelse
Når som helst det tøj, der skal lægges i,
overstiger tørretumblerens kapacitet, skal
tøjet adskilles i overensstemmelse med
tykkelse (f.eks. håndklæder fra tyndt
undertøj).
● Efter stoftype
Bomuld/linned: Håndklæder, bomuldsjersey,
sengelinned og duge.
Syntetiske stoffer: Skjortebluser, skjorter,
overalls, osv., fremstillet af polyester eller
polyamid samt efter bomulds/syntetiske
blandinger.
● Efter tørringsniveau
Sorter tøjet i: strygetørt, skabsstørt, osv. For
sarte genstande tryk på -knappen for at
vælge lav tørretemperatur.
27
40001810DAN.qxd 10/09/2004 19:53 Page 27
Må ikke tørres i
tørretumbler:
Uld, silke, sarte stoffer, nylonstrømper, sart broderi,
stof med metaldekoration, beklædningsgenstande
med PVC eller læderkanter, gummisko, pladskrævende genstande, som f.eks. soveposer, osv.
Energibesparelse
Læg kun vasketøj i tørretumbleren som er blevet
grundigt vredet eller centrifugeret. Jo mere tørt
vasketøj er, jo kortere vil tørretiden være og
derved spare elektricitet.
ALTID
● Prøv altid at tørre vasketøj så meget
vasketøj som maskinen tillader, dette sparer
både tid og elektricitet.
● Det skal altid kontrolleres, at filtret er rent
før hver tørrecyklus.
ALDRIG
● Den maksimale vægt må aldrig overskrides,
dette vil spilde tid og elektricitet.
● Læg aldrig drivvåde genstande i tørretumbleren, dette kan beskadige apparatet.
Tørrevejledning
Tabellen viser omtrentlige tørretider afhængig af
stoftype og tøjets fugtighed.
