Tips for environmental protection
To save energy and to help protect the environment,
we recommend that you follow these hints:
• Try to load the maximum capacity of the machine
as small loads are uneconomical.
• Always load well spun laundry. The higher the spin
speed, the lower the electricity consumption and
the shorter the drying times.
• Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and
saves energy.
Select the drying programme according to the type
of laundry and the required degree of dryness.
• Old appliance
The symbol on the product or on its packaging
indicates that this product may not be treated as
household waste. Instead it shall be handed over to the
applicable collection point for the recycling of electrical
and electronic equipment. By ensuring this product is
disposed of correctly, you will help prevent potential
negative consequences for the environment and human
health, which could otherwise be caused by in appropriate
waste handling of this product.For more detailed
information about recycling of this product, please contact
your local city office, your household waste disposal
service or the shop where you purchased the product.
• To utilize the maximum load, laundry which is to be
dried ready to put away (store dry) can be dried
together with items to be ironed. To do this, select
the programme for iron-dry, remove the iron-dry
items at the end of the programme and then finishdry the rest of the load.
• Clean the filter regularly to avoid excessive drying
times and high electricity consumption.
• Ventilate the room well. The room temperature
should not exceed +35°C during drying.

Positioning
It is recommended that, for your convenience, the
machine is positioned close to your washing
machine.
Whilst drying, the tumble dryer will expel a certain
amount of warm, very moist air, and this should be
removed from the room as quickly as possible to
prevent condensation. In an extremely well
ventilated room or close to an open window, this
may occur naturally.
However, in general, it is better to carry the dryer's
exhaust outside via the 100 mm diameter flexible
hose supplied with the appliance; ending either
temporarily at an open window, or permanently at a
fixed ventilation grille, fitted to an exterior wall or
window.
The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place,
where dirt does not build up.
Make sure there are no obstructing items or material
near the air-intake louvres provided at
the back (e.g. paper, rags etc.).
To keep vibration and noise to a minimum when the
dryer is in use, it should be placed on a firm, level
surface.
Once in its permanent operating position, check that
the dryer is absolutely level with the aid of a spirit
level. If it is not, raise or lower the feet until it is.
Fitting the vent hose
To simplify the installation, there is a choice of vent
outlets: one at the back, the others in the left and
right-hand side.
Connect the hose to whichever is the more
convenient by pulling the ring nut (A) from the vent
outlet at the back, screwing it on to the hose and
pushing it firmly back into place.
The unused vents should now be sealed with the
special snap covers provided.
Advice: If the hose is long and the room
temperature low, the moisture might condense to
water inside the hose. This is an unavoidable
natural phenomenon. To prevent this water from
Iying in the hose or flowing back into the tumble
dryer, it is advisable to drill a small hole (dia.
3 mm) in the lowest point of the hose and to place a
small container below it.(See picture, point B).
ENGLISH
The feet must never be removed.
Do not restrict the floor clearance through deep-
pile carpets, strips of wood or similar. This might
cause heat build-up which would interfere with
the operation of the appliance.
Important
When operating the tumble dryer, the room
temperature must not exceed 35°C, as it may affect
the performance of the appliance.
Once connected to the dryer, run the vent hose to
the desired outlet point, ensuring that the run’s
overall length is less than 2 m, and that it contains
no more than two bends. As to the outlet itself, if you
have decided on a fixed wall/window grille, a good
local builder’s merchant should be able to supply
you with the necessary fittings and installation
advice.

hose to, for example, a cooker hood, or
a chimney or flue pipe designed to carry
the exhaust from a fuel burning
appliance.
Note that to avoid condensation problems, it is
essential that the dryer be fitted with the flexible hose
to carry its “exhaust” at least beyond the kitchen
units; preferable outside the kitchen.
In order to prevent the appliance from overheating, it
is important that the steam exhaust is unobstructed.
Therefore, in case of a permanent hose fitted to an
exterior wall or ceiling, it must be ensured an
exhaust capacity of at least 150 m
3
/h.
If the dryer is fitted next to kitchen units, make
sure that the vent hose is not squashed. If the
hose is partially squashed, drying efficiency will
be reduced, resulting in longer drying times and
higher energy consumption.
If the hose is completely squashed, the safety
cut-outs with which the machine is fitted may
operate.
Door reversal
To make it easier to load or unload the laundry the
door can be reversed.
This operation must be carried out by qualified
personnel.
Operate as follows:
- Remove the door by unscrewing the two screws
(1) fastening the hinge to the cabinet (Fig. A).
- Remove the safety catch (2) and the plug (3) by
bending the two fastening tags (Fig. A).
- Refit the safety catch (2) and plug (3) on the door
by reversing their positions (Fig. B).
- Remove the plastic plate (4) by unscrewing the two
fastening screws (Fig. A).
- Refit the plastic plate (4) on the opposite side
(Fig. B).
- Refit the door by screwing in the two screws (1)
which fasten the door to the cabinet (Fig. B).
Electrical connection
This machine is designed to operate on a 220-230 V,
single-phase, 50 Hz supply.
Check that your domestic electrical installation can
take the maximum load required (2.2 kW), also
taking into account any other appliances in use.
Connect the machine to an earthed socket, in
accordance with current wiring regulations.
The manufacturer declines any
responsibility for damage or injury
through failure to comply with the
above safety precaution.
Stacking kit
A special stacking kit is available through your
dealer, to enable the mounting of the dryer on top of
your washing machine.

1 Programme Chart
This will help you to select the correct time for drying.
2 Mains-On Light
This lights up when the machine starts operating and
goes out at the end of the programme.
3 Drying Time Selector Dial
The selector dial incorporates two drying cycles, one
of up to 150 minutes at a high temperature for
cotton and linen, and one of up to 100 minutes at a
low temperature for synthetic fabrics.
To set the machine to the selected time, turn the dial
clockwise until the time you want coincides exactly
with the pointer.
NEVER attempt to turn the dial in an anticlockwise
direction.
When selecting the drying time, you should
remember that it includes a 10 minute cooling phase
(position on the dial).
This phase should not be shortened, stopped or
avoided, as this could cause skin burns or damages
to the laundry.
Additional drying
If at the end of the programme the laundry is still too
damp, set the dial for a further period of drying
(remembering to take into account the cooling
period).
