capacity as stated in the technical
specifications table.
• Power cable of this product is
equipped with a conductor and
a grounding plug that allows for
grounding the product. This plug
must be inserted into a socket
which is installed and grounded in
accordance with the local laws and
regulations. Grounding installation
decreases the risk of electric shock
by opening a path with low resistance
for the electricity flow in case of a
malfunction or failure. Do not neglect
to have the grounding installation
made by a qualified electrician.

the product in an ecological and energyefficient manner.
• Operate the product at a capacity
suitable for the program you have
selected and pay attention not to
overload.
• Spin your laundry at the highest
speed possible when washing them.
Thus, the drying time is shortened
and energy consumption is reduced.
• Dry the same type of laundry
together.
• Follow the instructions in the user
manual for programme selection.
• Leave sufficient clearance at the
front and rear side of the dryer for
air circulation. Do not block the
ventilation grills at the front side of the
product.
• Do not open the loading door of
the machine during drying unless

cycle are collected in the Lint Filter.
Clean the lint filter before or after each
drying cycle.
• Clean the filter drawer regularly either
when the Filter Drawer Cleaning
warning symbol appears or after
every 5 drying cycles
• Ventilate the room, where the dryer is
located, well during drying.
• For models with lamp, keep the door
closed if the On/Off button is pressed
(if the machine is energized) when
machine is not in use.
