HINTS AND TIPS
Respect the care labels of your laundry; make sure that it is appropriate for being treated in a dryer.
CARE LABELS
The dots indicate the temperature degree for drying the laundry.
Normal temperature
Reduced temperature
Do not tumble dry
EMPTY ALL POCKETS
Objects like coins or keys can damage your laundry as well as the drum.
SAVING TIPS
Always dry a full load; this optimizes the relative energy consumption. The maximum load sizes for the various programmes are indicated in the programme chart.
ADAPTING THE DRYER TO WATER CONDUCTIVITY
The drying results are aected by the conductivity of the water used during washing. If, by modifyingthe available dryness levels (iron dry; cupboard dry; extra dry), you are not satised withthe nal drying results, you can adapt the water conductivity level. The dryer comes with preset level 2. Choose between level 1 (most damp results) and 5 (most dry results).
Press and hold the Programme button until the Conductivity Adjustment symbol on the display blinks.
Turn the knob to adjust the level (1 –2 – 3 – 4 - 5). Press the knob to conrm the selected level. This operation is not needed for every drying cycle. Once the most satisfying water conductivity level has been identied, you no longer need to modify it.
To reduce the drying time, make sure that the laundry is spun with the maximum possible spin speed of the wash programme. This reduces the moisture content in the laundry.
