Where to put your dryer
• Place your dryer at a
distance from gas ranges,
stoves, heaters, or cooktops
because flames can damage
the appliance. The dryer
should be installed in an
ambient room temperature
of between 20 to 23°C
for optimum performance.
But will function if the room is between 14 and
30°C. If you are going to install the appliance
under a work counter, be sure to leave a 10 mm
space between the top and any other objects
on or above the machine and a 15 mm space
between the sides and lateral furnishings or
walls. This is to ensure proper air circulation.
The appliance must be installed with the rear
surface placed against a wall.
Ventilation
• When the dryer is in use, there has to be adequate ventilation.
Make sure you put your dryer in an environment that is not damp
and has proper air circulation throughout. Airflow around the dryer is
essential to condense the water produced during the washing, the
dryer will not operate efficiently in an enclosed space or cupboard.
! If using the dryer in a small or cold room some
condensation will be experienced.
!
We do not recommend that the dryer is
installed in a cupboard but the dryer must never
be installed behind a lockable door, a sliding
door or a door with a hinge on the opposite
side to that of the dryer door.
substitute the existing one as indicated in figure B inserting it in the
same place.
! The drain tube has to be below 1 m from the bottom of the Dryer.
! Once the Dryer has been installed please assure that the drain
tube is not bent or kinked.
Electrical connections
Before plugging the appliance into the socket,
check the following:
• Make sure your hands are dry.
• The socket must have an earth connection.
• The socket must be able to withstand the
machine’s maximum power output as indicated on the rating plate (see Description
of the tumble dryer)
• The power supply voltage must fall within
the values indicated on the data plate (see
Description of the tumble dryer).
• The socket must be compatible with the
dryer’s plug. Should this not be the case,
replace the plug or the socket.
! DO NOT USE EXTENSION CORDS.
(MAIUSCOLO)
! The dryer must not be installed outdoors,
even if the space is sheltered. It can be very
dangerous if exposed to rain or storms.
! Once installed, the dryer’s electrical wire and
plug must be within reach.
! The power cord must not be bent or
squashed.
! If the plug being replaced is a nonrewirable type, then the cut-off plug must
be disposed of safely. DO NOT leave it
where it can be inserted into a socket
and create a shock hazard.

Water Drain
If the machine is positioned close to a drain it is possible to drain the
condensed water directly without using the waterbottle. In which
case it is no longer necessary to empty the water bottle at the end
of each cycle. If the Dryer is positioned above or close to a Washing
Machine the same drainage can be used. Just remove unlink the
tube indicated in figure A and connect it to the drainage. If the
drainage is further away than the length of the tube it is possible to
buy and connect a tube of the same diameter and the necessary
length in order to reach the drainage. To install the new tube just

Warnings
EN
! This appliance has been designed and built
according to international safety standards.
These warnings are given for safety reasons
and must be followed carefully.
General safety
• This appliance can be used by children
aged from 8 years and above and
persons with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities or lack of experience
and knowledge if they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of
the appliance in a safe way and understand
the hazards involved.
• This tumble dryer has been designed for
home, and not professional, use.
• Do not touch the appliance while barefoot
or with wet hands or feet.
• Unplug the machine by pulling on the plug,
not the cord.
• After using the dryer, turn it off and unplug
it. Keep the door closed to make sure that
children do not use it as a toy.
• Children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the dryer.
• Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be
made by children without supervision.
•Children of less than 3 years should be
kept away from the appliance unless
continuously supervised.
• The appliance must be installed correctly
and have proper ventilation. The air intake
at the front of the dryer should never be
obstructed (see Installation).
• Never use the dryer on carpeting where
the pile height would prevent air from
entering the dryer from the base.
• Check to see if the dryer is empty before
loading it.
•
• Do not use liquid fabric softeners in the

temperatures.
• Do not turn off the dryer when there are still
warm items inside.
• Clean the filter after each use (see
Maintenance).
• Empty the Water Container after each use
(see Maintenance).
• Clean the Heat Pump filter unit at regular
intervals (see Maintenance).
• Do not allow lint to collect around the dryer.
• Never climb on top of the dryer. It could
result in damage.
• Always follow electrical standards and
requirements (see Installation).
• Always buy original spare parts and
accessories (see Service).
WARNING: Never stop the dryer before the
end of the drying cycle unless all items are
quickly removed and spread out so that the
heat is dissipated.
To minimise the risk of fire in your tumble
dryer, the following should be observed:
• Tumble dry items only if they have been
washed with detergent and water, rinsed and
been through the spin cycle. It is a fire hazard
to dry items that HAVE NOT been washed
with water.
• Do not dry garments that have been treated
with chemical products.
• ●Do not tumble dry items that have been
spotted or soaked with vegetable or cooking
oils, this constitutes a fire hazard. Oil-affected
items can ignite spontaneously,especially
when exposed to heat sources such as
a tumble dryer. The items become warm,
causing an oxidisation reaction with the
oil, Oxidisation creates heat. If the heat
cannot escape, items can become hot
enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or
storing oil-effected items can prevent heat
from escaping and so create a fire hazard.
If it is unavoidable that fabrics containing
vegetable or cooking oil or those that have
been contaminated withhair care products
be placed in a tumble dryer they should first
be washed with extra detergent - this will
reduce, but not eliminate the hazard. They
should not be removed from the dryer and
piled or stacked while hot.
• ●Do not tumble dry items that have previously
been cleaned in or washed in, soaked in
or soiled with petrol/gasoline, dry cleaning
4
solvents or other flammable or explosive
substances. Highly flammable substances
commonly used in domestic environments
including cooking oil, acetone, denatured
alcohol, kerosene, spot removers,
turpentine, waxes and wax removers.
Ensure these items have been washed
in hot water with an extra amount of
detergent before being dried in the tumble
dryer.
• Do not tumble dry items containing foam
rubber (also known as latex foam), or
similarly textured rubber like materials.
Foam rubber materials can, when heated,
produce fire by spontaneous combustion.
• Fabric softener or similar products should
not be used in a tumble dryer to eliminate
the effects of static electricity unless the
practice is specifically recommended by
the manufacturer of the fabric softener
product.
• ●Do not tumble dry undergarments that
contain metal reinforcements eg. bras
with metal reinforcing wires. Damage to
the tumble dryer can result if the metal
reinforcements come loose during drying.
• ●Do not tumble dry rubber, plastic articles
such as shower caps or babies waterproof
covers, polythene or paper.
• ●Do not tumble dry rubber backed articles,
clothes fitted with foam rubber pads,
pillows, galoshes and rubber coated tennis
shoes.
• ●Remove all objects from pockets such as
lighters and matches.

! WARNING: Never stop the dryer before
the end of the drying cycle unless all
items are quickly removed and spread
out so that the heat is dissipated.
Save energy and respect the environment
• Wring out all items to eliminate excess water before
tumble drying (if you use a washing machine first, select
a high spin cycle). Doing this will save time and energy
during drying.
• Always dry full loads - you save energy: single items or
small loads take longer to dry.
• Clean the filter after each use to contain energy
consumption costs (see Maintenance).
