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

Do not tumble dry

EMPTY ALL POCKETS

Objects like coins or keys can damage your laundry as well as the drum.

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.

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.

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.

CONSUMPTION DATA

Data can dier in your home, mainly depending on the moisture content of the laundry load.

*Reference programmes for Energy Label / Regulation 392/2012 / EU Values are based on the default programme setting, with clean door and bottom lter. For consumer tests, the door lter and bottom lter need to be cleaned after each cycle.

The energy consumption and drying time may dier from the values above. They depend on the operation conditions in your home (such as voltage uctuation, mixture of textiles, humidity of the textiles after spinning, load volume).

The values are determined according to European Norm 61121 and refer to the default programme setting; changing the setting also impacts the consumption data.
