DRAIN HOSE KIT: FITTING INSTRUCTIONS

Do not install the product in a room where
there is a risk of frost occurring. At temperature
around freezing point the product may not be
able to operate properly: there is a risk of
damage if the water is allowed to freeze in the
hydraulic circuit (valves, hoses, pumps).
For a better product performance the ambient
room temperature must be between +2°C and
+35°C.

DRAIN HOSE : FITTING INSTRUCTIONS

To avoid emptying the water container after
each drying cycle, the water can be
discharged directly to a waste water drain pipe
(the same drainage system as household
sinks). Water Bye-Laws prohibit connection to
a surface water drain. The waste water drain
pipe should be located adjacent to the tumble
dryer.

The kit consists of:1 hose and 1 tap.

WARNING! Switch off and remove the

tumble dryer plug from the electricity supply
before carrying out any work.

Attach the

PREPARING THE LOAD

Before using the tumble dryer for the first time:

Please read this instruction book thoroughly.

●

● Remove all items packed inside drum.

● Wipe the inside of the drum and door with a

damp cloth to remove any dust which may
have settled in transit.

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.

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.

IMPORTANT: Do not dry articles which

have been treated with a dry cleaning fluid or
rubber clothes (danger of fire or explosion).

During the last 15 minutes (roughly) the

load is always tumbled in cool air

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.

Maximum Drying Weight

● Cottons Max. 9 kg

● Synthetics Max. 4 kg

Do not overload the drum, large items when
wet can exceed the maximum admissible clothes
load (for example: sleeping bags, duvets).

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.

NEVER

● Exceed the maximum weight, this will waste
time and electricity.

● Put dripping wet items into the tumble dryer,
this may damage the appliance.

INSTALLATION

Elektriske Krav

Tørretumblere kan køre på 220-240V, 50 Hz
enfaset. Kontrollér at strømkredsen er
klassificeret til mindst 6A.

Elektricitet kan være meget farligt.
Dette apparat skal være jordforbundet.
Stikkontakten og maskinens stik skal
passe sammen.

Der må ikke anvendes flere adaptere
og/eller forlængerledninger.
Stikket skal være tilgængeligt til afbrydelse
efter,at apparatet er blevet installeret.

Dette apparat opfylder kravene i EU
direktiverne 2004/108/EC, 2006/95/EC og
efterfølgende ændringer.

Du kan komme til at betale for reparation,

hvis der opstår problemer med din maskine, der
skyldes ukorrekt installation.

VENTILATION

Der skal være tilstrækkelig ventilation i det rum,
hvor tørretumbleren placeres, så det undgås at
gasser fra andre apparater, eller åben ild,
trækkes ind I rummet under tørrebumbling.

● Udsugningsluft må ikke afledes i en træ
kkanal, der er beregnet til aftræk af røggasser

fra apparater, der kører på gas eller anden
brændsel.

● Kontroll r regelmæ ssigt at luften, der strø

é

mmer gennem tørretumbleren, ikke hæmmes.

● Kontrollér fnugfiltret efter brug og rengør det
om nødvendigt.

● Indløb og udløb skal holdes fri for tilstopninger.
For at sikre tilstrækkelig ventilation må
mellemrummet mellem maskinens bund og
gulvet ikke tilstoppes. Der skal være mindst 12
mm fri luft mellem maskinen og ting, der kan
blokere.

● Genstande skal forhindres i at falde ned og
samles mellem tørretumblerens sider og
bagside, da disse kan tilstoppe luftindsugning
og -udsugning.

● Tø rretumbleren må ALDRIG installeres op
mod gardiner.

Hvis hovedledningen til denne maskine
erbeskadiget, skal den udskiftes med en
s æ r li g l e d n i ng , s o m K U N f ås h o s
reservedelsforha ndleren. Den skal installeres
af en kvalificeret person.

Du må ikke sætte stikket i og tænde for
maskinen, før installationen er fuldført. Af
hensyn til din egen sikkerhed skal denne
tørretumbler være installeret korrekt. Hvis der er
nogen tvivl om installation, skal du ringe til GIAS
Service for rådgivning.

FORBEREDELSE AF ILÆGNING AF TØJ

Før tørretumbleren anvendes første gang:

● Læs venligst denne instruktionsbog grundigt.

● Fjern alle genstande som er lagt ind I tromlen.

● Aftør tromlens inderside og låge 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..

Må ikke tørres I tørretumbler:

Uld, silke, sarte stoffer, nylonstrømper, sart
bro de r i, s to f m e d m eta lde kor ati on,
beklædningsgenstande med PVC eller
læderkanter, gummisko, pladskrævende
genstande, som f.eks. soveposer, osv.

VIGTIGT: Tør ikke genstande som er

behandlet med kemisk rensevæske eller
gummitøj (fare for brand eller eksplosion).

I løbet af de sidste ca. 15 minutter tørres tøjet
altid i nedkølet luft.

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.

Maksimal tørrevægt

●

Bomuld Maks. 9 kg

● Syntetiske stoffer Maks. 4 kg

Tromlen må ikke overfyldes, større, våde

ting, kan overstige den maksimalt tilladte vægt
(f.eks.: soveposer og dyner).

Sorter Tøjet, Der Skal Lægges I, Som Følger:

Efter vaskemærker

●

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 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 stof: Skjortebluser, skjorter, overalls,
osv., fremstillet af polyester eller polyamid samt
efter bomulds/syntetiske blandinger.

● Efter tørringsniveau

Sorter tøjet i: Strygetørt, Skabstørt, osv. For
sarte genstande tryk på knappen for at vælge
lav tørretemperatur.

ALDRIG

● Den maksimale vægt må aldrig overskrides,
dette vil spilde tid og elektricitet.

● Læ g a l dri g dr i vvå de g e nst and e I
