SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Please don´t use the appliance unless you
have studied and understood the instruction
manual.
Your dryer is intended solely for household
use.
If the dryer is used for professional, for-profit
purpose or purpose exceeding normal use
in a household, or if the dryer is used by a
person who is not a consumer, the warranty
period shall be equal to the shortest warranty
period required by relevant legislation.
Before connecting the dryer to the power
mains, please read carefully the instructions
for use which describe the dryer and its
correct and safe use. The instructions apply
for several appliance types/models; thus,
settings or equipment may be described
herein which is not available in your dryer.
Failure to observe instructions or incorrect
use of the dryer, can lead to damage of
laundry, dryer or the user.
Store the instruction manual nearby the
dryer.
Do not allow the children to play with the
appliance.
Prevent your children and pets to enter the
dryer drum.
Air in the dryer environment should not
contain dust particles.
The air where the dryer is installed, should
be well ventilated to prevent feedback of
gases released from the gas appliances with
open fire (e.g. fireplace).
401681
Final drying cycle includes cooling; be
careful not to extract excessively hot
laundry from the drum.
Clean the filters after each drying cycle. If
you have removed the filters, replace them
before the next drying cycle.
After each cleaning insert the condenser
back into the air duct. Operation of the
appliance without condenser, or with
damaged condenser is extremely dangerous
and may cause fire.
Always switch off the dryer after use (the
program selector switch should be in the
"OFF" position) and unplug the power cord
from the wall outlet (to prevent the hazard of
lightning or voltage overload).
Leave any repairs and similar tasks on the
dryer to an expert.
Unprofessional repair may result in an
accident or major malfunction. Call the
authorized service department (see list of
service departments attached).
The warranty does not cover (consumables
(light bulbs), minor deviations in colour,
increased noise which is a consequence of
the appliance age and does not affect the
functionality of the appliance, and aesthetic
defects on components that do not affect
the functionality and safety of the appliance.
The appliance is manufactured in
compliance with all effective safety
standards.
Nevertheless, we recommend it is not used
by persons with impaired physical or mental
8
abilities and motor skills, or persons with
deficient experience or knowledge, without
due supervision. The same recommendation
applies to the use of appliance by minors.
The dryer back wall can be hot danger of
burns.
Never stop the drying cycle before it is
completed; if you do interrupt the cycle
for any reason, be careful when removing
the laundry from the drum as it is very hot.
Quickly remove the laundry from the drum
and spread it to allow it to cool down as
quickly as possible.
TO REDUCE FIRE HAZARD, PLEASE READ THE
FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS:
Do not dry in the dryer any laundry, that has not been
washed earlier.
Use the dryer only to dry laundry that was washed with
water. Do not dry any laundry that was washed of cleaned
with inflammable cleaners or substances (such as gasoline,
trichloroethylene etc.) as this may result in an explosion.
Laundry stained with oil, acetone, alcohol, oil derivatives,
stain removers, turpentine, wax, and wax removers should
be washed in a washing machine with hot water and
detergent before it is dried in the dryer.
Clothing that includes foam rubber, latex, rubber parts,
shower and bathing caps, water proof textiles and rubber
backed articles and clothes or pillows fitted with foam rubber pads
should not be dried in the tumble dryer.
Laundry conditioners or similar products have to be used in
compliance with manufacturer's instructions.

INSTALLATION AND
CONNECTION
SELECTING THE ROOM
10 cm
5 cm
Ventilation slots and the opening on the front and rear side should always be kept free.
Do not install the appliance in a room where there is danger of frost.
The room in which the appliance is installed should be adequately ventilated, with
temperature between 10°C and 25°C. When the dryer is operated at a lower ambient
temperature, condensate can accumulate in the appliance interior.Frozen water in the
condensate tank or pump may damage the dryer.
The surrounding illumination in the installation room should be adequate to read the front
panel properly.
When installing the dryer in a room, note the required clearance as indicated in the image.
In case of failure to heed the required minimum clearance, the dryer may overheat.

POSITIONING THE APPLIANCE
4X
Positioning the appliance on top of the washing machine by using the vacuum feets or
side by side.
Dryer can be stand freely on the floor or on a washing machine of the same dimensions
– minimum width 517 mm, minimum depth 476 mm. The surface on which the dryer is
placed should be clean and level.
Use the vacuum feet attached; they are designed to prevent the dryer from sliding.
(Vacuum feet are attached or can be purchased (depending on model))
Washing machine on which you wish to install the dryer must be able to bear the weight
of the dryer (see washing machine's rating plate or technical information).
401681
11
Do not place the dryer behind lockable or sliding door or door
with a hinge opposite the dryer. Install the dryer in such way
that the door can always be freely opened.
Never block the cool air opening (see dryer description).
Drying machine on top should be placed by at least two
persons.
Do not place the dryer on a carpet with long fibres as this may
impede air circulation.
The appliance may not be in contact with a wall or adjacent
furniture.
Lint must not be allowed to accumulate around the tumble
dryer
401681
12
INSTALLATION
Level the dryer in
longitudinal and
traverse direction
by rotating the
adjustable feet
which allow levelling
by +/- 1 cm. Use
key nr. 22 and spirit
level.
Floor on which the machine is placed must have a concrete
base. They must be clean and dry; otherwise, the machine may
slide. Also clean the adjustable feet.
The appliance must stand level and stable on a solid base.
Vibrations, moving of the appliance across the room, or loud
operation due to improperly adjusted feet are not covered by
the warranty.
Sometimes, unusual or loud noise may appear during
appliance operation; these are mostly the result of improper
installation.
401681
13
CONDENSATE DISCHARGE
The moisture from the laundry is extracted in the condenser unit
and accumulated in the condensate tank.
During the drying process, a control light will warm you of a full
condensate tank which has to be emptied.
Interruption of the drying cycle due to full condensate tank can be
avoided by running the condensate discharge tube found at the
back of the appliance directly into a drain.
Pull the tube to
1
remove it with
flat screw-driver,
from the holder on
the appliance back
wall (on the left
hand side under the
cover).
401681
14
max 80 cm
If the condensate discharge tube is run into a drain, make sure
the tube is firmly secured. This will prevent any water spillage
which could result in unexpected damage.
In this case, the steam generator tank will not be filled
automatically. It will always require manual filling (see section
Filling and replenishing the steam generator tank).
Install tube into
2
the drain, at
a height of 80 cm
from the ground.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
2h
The dryer should be left to stand still for at least two hours
before it is connected to the power mains to allow the system to
stabilize.
Use the power cord to connect the dryer to the power mains
through a power outlet. The dryer may not be connected to the
power mains through an extension cable (danger of overheating
and fire). Nominal voltage and other information is given on the
rating plate located under the door frame.
To prevent from damage by excess voltage on the mains due
to lightning strike we recommend to use a class I over-voltage
protector between the machine and the mains.
After installation, the wall outlet should be freely accessible.
The outlet should be fitted with an earth contact (in
compliance with the relevant regulations).
A damaged power cord may only be replaced by a person
authorized by the manufacturer.
