film, polystyrene) can be dangerous
to children - Keep them out of
children’s reach.
• Keep all detergents in a safe place out of
children’s reach.
• Make sure that children or pets do not
climb inside the drum.
Environmental tips
• In the dryer, laundry becomes fluffy and
soft. Fabric softeners are not therefore
needed when washing.
• Your dryer will function most economically
if you:
– Always keep the ventilation slots on the
base of the dryer unobstructed;
– Use the loading volumes specified in the
programme overview;
– Ensure you have good ventilation in the
installation room;
– Clean the micro-fine filter and fine
strainer after each drying cycle;
– Spin the laundry well before drying.
Energy consumption depends on
spinning speed set in washing machine.
Higher spinning speed - lower energy
consumption.
Environmental
information
The packaging materials are environmentally
friendly and can be recycled. The plastic
components are identified by markings, e.g.

Maintenance and cleaning
Cleaning fluff filter
The filters collect all the fluff which
accumulates during drying. To ensure that the
dryer works perfectly, the fluff filters (microfine filter and fine strainer) must be cleaned
after every drying cycle.
The warning lamp Filter lights to remind you
of this operation at the end of each cycle.
Caution! Never operate the dryer
without fluff filters or with damaged or
blocked fluff filters.
1. Open loading door
2. Use a damp hand to clean the micro- fine
filter, which is built into the lower part of
the loading aperture.
3. After a period of time, a gleam due to
detergent residue on laundry forms on
the filters. When this occurs, clean the
filters with warm water using a brush.
Remove the filter from the door pulling it
out. (It can be positioned with the
locating spur facing to the left or to the
right).
After cleaning do not forget to put it back.

4. Push down the unlock button on the large
mesh filter.
The large mesh filter pops up.
6. Remove the fluff from fine filter. It is best
to use a damp hand for this purpose.
Clean the entire filter area
The filter area does not have to be
cleaned after every drying cycle, but
should be checked regularly and cleaned
of fluff if necessary.
7. To do this, grip the top of the large mesh
filter and pull it forwards until it comes
loose from the two brackets.
5. Take out fine filter.

the drying cycle.
The water reservoir has a volume of
approx. 4 litres.
The condensed water can be used as
distilled water, e.g. for steam ironing.
However it must first be filtered (e.g.
with a coffee filter) to remove any
residue and small pieces of fluff.
17
Cleaning heat exchanger
filters
If the warning lamp Condenser lights, the heat
exchanger fluff filters in the base of the
appliance must be cleaned, i.e. after each 5
drying cycles. Both filters are located in the
appliance base.
Water can collect in the filter housing
therefore it is normal for the heat
exchanger fluff filters to become wet.
Important!
• Never operate the dryer without the fluff
filters.
• Clogged filters cause higher energy
consumption (drying cycle elongation) and
dryer damage.
• A dirty heat pump can only be cleaned up
by means of a costly process.

Adjusting the level of
conductivity
Water contains, a variable quantity of
limestone and mineral salts of which
quantities vary according to geographical
locations thus varying its conductivity
values.
Relevant variations of the conductivity of
the water compared to those prefixed by
the factory could slightly influence the
residual humidity of the laundry at the
end of the cycle. Your dryer allows you to
regulate the sensitivity of the drying
sensor based on conductivity values of the
water.
In order to establish the conductivity of
the water in your area please contact
your water board.
1. Turn the programme selector to any
programme.
4. To memorize setting press simultaneously
the Anti-crease and Start/Pause
buttons or turn knob to Off position
2. Press simultaneously the Anti-crease
and Start/Pause buttons and hold down
for approx. 5 seconds.
3. Press the Start/Pause button until you
set desired level:
low conductivity
<300 µS/cm
medium conductivity
300-600 µS/cm
high conductivity

Installation
Transporting the
appliance
Important! Only tip the appliance on its left
side to transport (see illustration), if it cannot
be transported in an upright position.
• Air must be able to circulate freely all round
the appliance. Do not obstruct the front
ventilation grille or the air intake grilles at
the back of the machine.
• 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.
• The feet must never be removed. Do not
restrict the floor clearance through
deeppile carpets, strips of wood or similar.
This might cause heat built-up which would
interfere with the operation of the
appliance.
Appliance positioning
• It is recommended that, for your
convenience, the machine is positioned
close to your washing machine.
• The tumble dryer must be installed in a
clean place, where dirt does not build up.
24
Important!
• The appliance should not be installed in an
environment such as a unheated garage or
outbuilding. The combination of high
humidity and low ambient temperatures
could affect the performance or the
appliance and therefore invalidate your
guarantee.
• The hot air emitted by the tumble dryer can
reach temperatures of up to 60°C. The
appliance must therefore not be installed
on floors which are not resistant to high
temperatures.
• When operating the tumble dryer, the
room temperature must not be lower than
+5°C and higher than +35°C, as it may
affect the performance of the appliance.
• Should the appliance be moved, it must be
transported vertically.
• The appliance must not be installed behind
the lockable door, a sliding door a door
with a hinge on the opposite side to that of
the appliance in such a way that a full
opening of the dryer is restricted.
