– 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.

Sorting and preparing laundry
Sorting laundry
• Sort by fabric type:
– Cotton/linen for programmes in
Cottons programme group.
– Mixtures and synthetics for programmes
in Synthetics programme group.
• Sort by care label: The care labels mean:
Drying in the tumble dryer possible in
principle
Drying at normal temperature
Drying at reduced temperature
Drying in the tumble dryer not possible
Important! Do not place in the appliance
any wet laundry which is not specified on the
care label as being suitable for tumble-drying.
This appliance can be used for all wet laundry
items which are labelled as suitable for
tumble-drying.
• Do not dry new, coloured textiles together
with light-coloured laundry items. Textile
colours may bleed.
• Do not dry cotton jersey and knitwear with
the Extra programme. Items may shrink!
• Wool and wool-like textiles can be dried
using the Wool programme. Before the
drying cycle spin the woollen textiles as well
as possible (max. 1200 rpm). Only dry
woollen textiles together of similar or the
same material, colour and weight. Please
dry heavy laundry items made of wool
separately.
Preparing laundry
• To avoid laundry becoming tangled: close
zips, button up duvet covers and tie loose
ties or ribbons (e.g. of aprons).
• Empty pockets. Remove metal items
(paper clips, safety pins, etc).
• Turn items with double-layered fabrics
inside out (e.g. with cotton-lined anoraks,
the cotton layer should be outermost).
These fabrics will then dry better.

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 patina 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.
5. Take out fine filter.
16
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.
8. Remove fluff from the entire filter area. It
is best to use a vacuum cleaner for this
purpose.
9. Press both journals of the large mesh filter
into the brackets on the loading door
until they snap into place.
10. Re-insert fine filter.
11. Press against the large mesh filter until it
locks into the interlock.

the loading door cannot be closed.
Cleaning the door seal
Wipe the door seal with a damp cloth
immediately after the drying cycle has finished.
Emptying the water
reservoir
Empty the water reservoir after every drying
cycle.
If the water reservoir is full, an active
programme will break off automatically and
the warning lamp Full tank lights. In order to
continue the programme, the water reservoir
must first be emptied.
Warning! The condensed water is
not suitable for drinking or for
preparing foodstuffs.
17

or similar receptacle.
3. Slide the outlet connections in and refit
the water reservoir.
If the programme has been interrupted as
a result of the water reservoir being full:
Press the Start/Pause button to continue
the drying cycle.
The water reservoir has a volume of
approx. 4 litres. This is sufficient for
around 7 kg of laundry which has
previously been spun at 1000
revolutions / minute.
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.
Cleaning heat exchanger
filter
If the warning lamp Condenser lights, the heat
exchanger filter in the base of the appliance
must be cleaned.
To protect the heat pump from dirt,
the dryer is fitted with a fluff filter,
which is located in the filter housing.
Here, too large amounts of fluff build
up over time, which affect the function
of the appliance.
Important!
• Operating when the fluff filter is clogged
with fluff can damage the dryer. This also
increases energy consumption.
• Never operate the dryer without the fluff
filters.

8. As necessary, approx. once every 6
months, remove the fluff from the heat
exchanger using the sponge supplied.
When doing this, please use rubber
gloves.
19
The fluff can be removed more easily
if it is first dampened e. g. with a
laundry dampener. It is best to use a
vacuum cleaner for this purpose.
Do not use any sharp objects in
this area.
9. Re-insert filter housing along with filter in
appliance base.
If the fluff filter is not inserted in the filter
housing, the filter housing cannot be slid
into the appliance base.
10. Close door in plinth.
Cleaning the drum
Caution! Do not use abrasives or
steel wool to clean the drum.
Lime in the water or cleaning agents
may form a barely visible lining on the
inside of the drum. The degree to
which the laundry has been dried is
then no longer detected reliably. The
laundry is damper than expected when
removed from the dryer.
Use a standard domestic cleaner (e.g.
vinegar-based cleaner) to wipe down
the inside of the drum and drum ribs.
Clean operating screen
and housing
Caution! Do not use furniture
cleaners or aggressive cleaning agents
to clean the machine.

Replacing the drum light
Only use a special bulb which is designed
specially for dryers. The special bulb can be
obtained from your local Service Force
Centre.
Important! When the appliance is switched
on, the interior lighting switches itself off after
4 minutes when the door is open.
Warning! Do not use standard bulbs!
These develop too much heat and may
damage the machine!
Warning! Before replacing the bulb,
disconnect the mains plug; with a
permanent connection: fully unscrew
or deactivate the fuse.
1. Unscrew the cover above the bulb (this
can be found directly behind the loading
aperture, at the top; refer to “Description
of machine” section.)
2. Replace the defective bulb.
3. Screw cover back down.
Check the correct positioning of o-ring gasket
before screwing back the door light cover. Do
not operate the dryer when missing o-ring
gasket on door light cover.
Warning! For safety reasons, the
cover must be screwed down tightly.
If this is not done, the dryer must not
be operated.

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.
1. Turn the programme selector to any
programme.
2.
Press simultaneously the Long anti-
crease and Start/Pause buttons and
hold down for approx. 5 seconds.

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.
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.
• 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.
Important! 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.
Warning! Should the appliance be
moved, it must be transported
vertically.
Warning! 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.
