INSTALLATION OF THE DRYER

• The dryer must only be transported in upright position.

• The dryer shall only be transported or lifted by two persons.

• The dryer is exclusively destined to dry dryable laundry in quantities which are usual for private households.

• Observe the instructions given in this instruction for use and the programme chart before using the dryer.

• Keep the instruction for use and the programme chart. If you pass on the dryer to another person, also give him/her the instructions for use and the programme chart.

• The manufacturer declines all liability for damage to property or injury to persons or animals due to noncompliance with the directions given in this instruction for use.

1. Removing the packaging and check

• After unpacking, make sure that the dryer is undamaged. If in doubt, do not use the dryer. Contact After-Sales Service or your local retailer.

• If the appliance was exposed to the cold prior to delivery, keep it at room temperature for a few hours before operating.

• Do not operate the dryer if it has been damaged during transport. Contact one of our After-Sales Service technicians.

• The appliance must not be installed behind a lockable door, a sliding door or a door with a hinge on the opposite side to that of the tumble dryer, in such a way, that a full opening of the tumble dryer door is restricted.

• Small storage rooms located inside, bathrooms, toilets, showers, etc. without ventilation are no suitable places for the installation of the dryer. If it has to be installed here, a good ventilation of the room (open doors, ventilation grid or slot larger than 500 cm²) has to be assured.

• Before running the first cycle, ensure that the water container is fully pushed inside and that the bottom filter is correctly positioned.

2. Electrical Connections

• Electrical connections must be carried out by a qualified technician in compliance with the manufacturer’s instructions and current standard safety regulations.

• Electrical connection must comply with local Electricity Board regulations.

• Voltage information, power consumption and the required fuse protection is shown on the rating plate mounted at the rear of the dryer.

• The dryer must be grounded as prescribed by law.

• Before any maintenance on the dryer, disconnect it from the mains supply.

• Mains cable replacement is only to be carried out by After-Sales-Service.

• After installation, access to the mains plug has to be guaranteed or the all-pole disconnection has to be possible with a switch.

• The replacement of the light bulb is only to be carried out by the After-Sales-Service.

3. Installation

• Do not install your dryer where it can be subject to extreme condition, such as: poor ventilation, temperature below 5°C or above 35°C.

• Before running the first cycle, ensure that all hoses of the drainage system are connected (as shown in the picture below).

• If possible, use a hose to drain the water directly into the domestic plumbing system. This will avoid having to empty the water container at the end of each drying cycle since the condensation water can be directly drained away. See also chapter “Drainage System”.

• Take care not to install the dryer on a deep pile carpet.

• Take care not to trap the power cord between the dryer and the wall.

• When installing the dryer always carefully level the dryer adjusting the four feet and check the correct levelling with a level.

• If the dryer has to be installed due to lack of space

directly next to a gas or coal stove, a heat insulating plate (85 x 57 cm) has to be installed in between, whose side against the stove has to be covered with aluminium foil.

4. Assembly of distance holders

To ensure a correct distance of the appliance from the wall at the rear side and allow a sufficient ventilation, distance holders have to be mounted on the dryer rear side before starting the first drying cycle.

A. Remove the two distance holders from the packaging. B. The distance holders have to be mounted on the

rear side of the dryer in the protection cover.

C. Insert the distance holders into the holes on both

sides.

D. Fix both distance holders by turning them in

clockwise direction until stop position.

5. User and child protection

• Children must not be allowed to play with the dryer.

• Ensure that children or small animals can not get into the drum.

• Keep the packaging materials (plastic bags, polystyrene parts, etc.) out of reach of children, as they are potentially dangerous.

• The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Stacking kit

• Depending on the model of your washing machine, your dyer can be stacked on top of your front loading washing machine. For further information please contact the After-Sales-Service.

SAFETY ADVICES AND GENERAL

RECOMMENDATIONS

• To minimize the risk of fire in a tumble dryer, the following should be observed:

• Oil-affected item can ignite spontaneously, especially when 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 item can become hot enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing oilaffected item can prevent heat from escaping and so create a fire hazard.

• Do not tumble dry unwashed items in the tumble dryer.

• Ensure that the appliance is maintained as shown in the chapter “Maintenance and cleaning”.

• Ensure that the appliance is installed per the description above.

• Items that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers must be washed in hot water with an extra amount of detergent before being dried in the tumble dryer.

• Do not use flammable cleaning agents.

• Do not use the tumble dryer if chemicals have been used for cleaning.

• Items such as foam rubber (latex foam) , shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubber backed articles and clothes or pillows fitted with foam rubber pads must not be dried in the tumble dryer.

• Fabric softeners, or similar products, should be used as specified by the fabric softener instructions.

• Remove all objects from pockets such as lighters and matches.

• Never use and store flammable materials nearby the dryer.

• 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.

• Attention rear panel can be hot.

• The dryer is appropriate for indoor use only.

• Do not use extension leads or multiple adaptors.

• For energy declaration measurements the filter meshes of the door filter and the bottom filter have to be cleaned after each single cycle. Also the filter foam of the bottom filter has to be cleaned after each cycle under running water.

• The filter meshes and filter foam have to be dry when inserted in the dryer, before starting a new drying cycle.

• Always set the programme/time selector knob to the “0” position after use. This prevents the dryer from being switched on accidentally.

• Before cleaning or carrying out maintenance switch off the dryer and disconnect it from the mains supply.

• To clean the outside of the dryer, use a neutral detergent and a damp cloth.

• Do not use abrasive detergents.

• The final phase of a drying cycle always occurs without heat (cool down phase) to ensure that the items are left at a temperature that ensures that the items will not be damaged.

• Wipe away lint from the door seal and the door using a damp cloth.

• If the door filter mesh is clogged, clean it with water and a soft brush.

• Since lint can go through the filter it is necessary to clean from time to time the complete filter area (including below the filter) with a brush, damp cloth or with a vacuum cleaner.
