Caring for the environment
Disposal of the packing
mat
erial
The packaging is designed to protect
e appliance from damage during
th
transportation. The packaging materials
used are selected from materials which
are environmentally friendly for disposal
and should be recycled.
Recycling the packaging reduces the
se of raw materials in the
u
manufacturing process and also
reduces the amount of waste in landfill
sites. Ensure that any plastic
wrappings, bags etc. are disposed of
safely and kept out of the reach of
babies and young children. Danger of
suffocation.
Disposing of your old
appliance
Electrical and electronic appliances
en contain materials which, if
oft
handled or disposed of incorrectly,
could be potentially hazardous to
human health and to the environment.
They are, however, essential for the
correct functioning of your appliance.
Therefore, please do not dispose of
your old appliance with your household
waste.
Ensure that your old appliance presents
no dange
stored for disposal.

Energy saving tips
To avoid unnecessarily long drying
times and high consumption of energy:
– Make sure that your laundry is
oughly spun before drying.
thor
The higher the spin, the greater the
savings that can be made in energy
and time during drying, e.g. approx.
20% energy can be saved if spun at
1600 rpm instead of 1000 rpm.
– Load according to the optimum
amo
unt of laundry recommended for
the programme being used.
Underloading is uneconomical.
Overloading gives a poorer quality of
drying and may cause unnecessary
creasing.
– Make sure the room temperature is
t too high. If there are other heat
no
producing appliances in the room in
which the tumble dryer is located,
make sure the room is well-ventilated
and switch the other appliances off, if
possible.
– Clean the fluff filters in the door
openi
ng after every drying cycle.
Please dispose of it at your local
commu
centre.

To prevent the risk of fire, do not connect the tumble dryer via a

If the drying programme is interrupted before the end of the cooling

T
in this tumble dryer:
– Items which have not been washed.
– Items, such as workwear, which have not been thoroughly
aned and which are still soiled with grease, oil or other
cle
desposits (such as cosmetics, lotions etc). If items have not been
thoroughly cleaned, there is a danger that these might ignite
when heated, even after they have been removed from the dryer
at the end of the programme.
– Items that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil,
acetone, petrol, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes, wax
removers and other chemicals (e.g. mops and floor cloths).
– Items which have been splashed with hair lacquer, hair spray, nail
varni
sh remover or similar substances.
When washing such heavily soiled items ensure that you use
suffic
ient detergent and select a high temperature. If in doubt,
wash the items several times.
Oil-affect
exposed to heat sources such as in a tumble dryer.
The items become warm, causing an oxidation reaction in the oil.
Oxidation creates heat.
If the heat cannot escape, the items can become hot enough to
catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing oil-affected items can prevent
heat from escaping and so create a fire hazard.
If it is unavoidable that fabrics contaminated with vegetable or
cooking oil, or hair care products, be placed in a tumble dryer, they
should first be washed in hot water with extra detergent - this will
reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard.
