Important Information

Your dryer is designed to be particularly energy efficient. Its technical features include a
refrigeration circuit, which uses energy efficiently in a similar way to a refrigerator.
The dryer's heat exchanger is cleaned automatically during drying.
The fluff filters and filter in the condensate container must be cleaned regularly.

Never operate the dryer without the fluff filters and without filter in condensate container.

ʑ

Fluff filters

During drying, fluff and hair from the laundry is trapped by the fluff filter. Blocked fluff filters
may impair the heat exchange process.
The fluff filters must therefore be cleaned after every drying cycle. Rinse regularly under

running water apage 4.

ʑ

Filter in the condensate container

The filter in the condensate container cleans the condensation. This condensation is required
for the automatic cleaning process. The filter should be cleaned regularly under running

water. Empty the condensate container before cleaning the filter apage 4/9.

ʑ

Fabrics

Do not dry any fabrics that have come into contact with solvents, oil, wax, grease or paint:
e.g. hair styling products, nail varnish remover, stain remover, cleaning solvent. etc.
Empty all pockets.
Do not dry non-breathable fabrics.
Avoid drying items that produce a lot of fluff.
Woollens should be refreshed only, using the woollens programme.

Information on laundry ...

Labelling of fabrics

Follow the manufacturer's care information.

(cDry at normal temperature.

'cDry at low temperature a in addition, select Low heat.

)cDo not machine dry.

Always observe the safety instructions on page 13.

Do not tumble-dry the following fabrics, for example:
– Non-breathable fabrics (e.g. rubber-coated).

– Delicate materials (silk, curtains made from synthetic material) a these may crease.

– Oil-stained laundry.

Drying tips

– To ensure an even result, sort the laundry by fabric type and drying programme.
– Always dry very small fabrics (e.g. baby socks) together with

large items of laundry (e.g. towels).

– Close zips, hooks and eyelets, and button up covers.

Tie fabric belts, apron strings, etc. together

– Do not over-dry easy-care laundry a Risk of creasing.

Allow laundry to finish drying in the air.

– Do not dry woollens in the dryer. They may, however, be refreshed a page 7

Woollens Finish programme.

– Do not iron laundry immediately after drying; fold items up and leave for a while a residual

moisture will then be distributed evenly.

– The drying result depends on the type of water used during washing. aFine adjustment of

the drying result a page 6.

– Knitted fabrics (e.g. T-shirts, jerseys) often shrink slightly the first time they are tumble-dried.

aDo not use thecCupboard Dry Extra programme.

– The drying of starched laundry should be limited. a Starch leaves behind a coating that

impairs drying.

– When washing laundry that is to be tumble-dried afterwards, use the correct amount of fabric

softener as specified in the manufacturer's instructions.

– For pre-dried, multi-layered fabrics or small, individual items of laundry, use the Timed

programme. Also suitable for subsequent drying.

Environmental protection/energy-saving tips

– Before drying, spin the laundry thoroughly in the washing machine a the higher the spin

speed, the shorter the drying time will be, thus less energy is consumed. Also spin easy-care
laundry.

– Use the maximum recommended capacity, but do not exceed it

a Programme overview page 7.

– Make sure the room is well ventilated during drying.
– Do not cover or seal the air inlet.

Normal noises

During drying, the compressor and the pump generate some noise which is entirely normal.

The compressor in the dryer may occasion­ally generate a humming noise. The volume

and pitch of this may vary
depending on the selected

programmes and the progress of the

drying.

The compressor in the dryer is ventilated
from time to time, which creates a whirring

sound.
