Safety instructions Hints and tips Environmental information

Your New Tumble Dryer

12345

This tumble dryer will give your wash that soft, relaxed feel whatever the weather.

Extremely high quality standards both during development and manufacturing guarantee a long service life for your appliance.

Maximum economy in the operation of your dryer is achieved through very frugal electricity consumption and short drying times.

Energy saving tips

To save energy we recommend that you follow these hints:

●

Try to load the maximum capacity of the machine as small loads are uneconomical.

●

Always load well spun laundry. The higher the spin speed, the lower the electricity consumption and the shorter the drying times.

●

Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and saves energy.

●

Clean the filter regularly to avoid excessive drying times and high electricity consumption.

●

Ventilate the room well. The room temperature should not exceed +35°C during drying.

In the interest of the environment

●

Materials marked with the symbol are recyclable.

●

Check with your local Council or Environmental Health Office to see if there are facilities in your area for re-cycling this appliance.

●

When the appliance is to be scrapped, cut off the power supply cable and make the door closing device unusable to prevent young children from being trapped inside.

●

Help to keep your country tidy - use authorised disposal sites for your old appliance.

How do we help to protect the environment? We use recycled paper!
