Sort laundry by:
Material thickness: whenever there is greater load than the dryer can handle, separate laundry according to weight (e.g. dry towels and thin underwear separately).
Ty p e o f m a t e r i a l: cotton (linen); synthetic textiles (easy care).
Do not tumble dry: nylon stockings, delicate embroidery, fabrics with metallic
decorations, bulky items such as pillows.
Check that all fastenings are closed and that pockets are empty. Please ensure that there are no lighters in the laundry. Turn laundry inside out.
Place laundry loosely in the drum to achieve equal drying throughout. Then close the door.
Select the drying programme required by turning the programme selector knob (for information, refer to programme table).
Select the option required by pressing the corresponding button. The indicator lamp above the relevant button lights up to confirm your selection. A fast blinking led indicates a wrong selection is made (incompatible options). Press the button again to cancel the option.
The drying programme is started by pressing the “Start (Pause)” button. The relevant indicator lamp lights up. Changing programme selection: if the programme selected is changed during drying, the dryer stops. The “Start (Pause)” indicator lamp flashes. To operate the new programme, again press the “Start (Pause)” button.
Interrupting programme: to interrupt a drying cycle, press the “Start (Pause)” button and open the door. Wait at least 5 minutes, to allow the laundry to cool down, before you unload the dryer. For your safety the drying cycle stops automatically if you open the door. To restart, after door opening, close the door and press the
“Start (Pause)” button again. Warning: never stop a tumble dryer before the end of the drying cycle, unless all
items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.
The final part of a drying cycle occurs without heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that the items reach a lower temperature to avoid wrinkling. Anticrease: if the laundry is not removed at the end of the drying cycle, an automatic anticrease cycle will operate for maximum 15 min (by choosing the option “Anticrease” this time can be extended up to 12 hours). The drum rotates to prevent the laundry from creasing. End: take the laundry out of the dryer. The drying process is complete and the anti­crease phase has been reached (active).
Cleaning the door filter after every cycle: open door, pull door filter up and out of machine and open it. Brush lint using a soft brush or your fingertips. Close door filter and push firmly back into place. Emptying water container: pull container out by the handle and empty. Replace the container when empty by pushing it completely back into place.
Please note: only use additives/plastic items specified as dryer safe. Rinse items that have been treated with stain remover thoroughly in plenty of water before drying. Never dry rubber objects or objects stained with vegetable oils in the dryer.
The Manufacturer is not liable for any damage to laundry resulting from inadequate or incorrect fabric care instructions which have been provided with the garment or article.
Set the programme selector knob to “Off” (“O”).
