Before the first use

Ensure that the electrical connections comply with the installation instructions.

Remove the polystryrene block and any material from the drum.

Before using your tumble dryer for the

first time, we recommend that you place a few damp cloths inside the appliance and dry for 30 minutes.

There may be dust inside a brand new tumble dryer.

Drying hints

Before loading the laundry

Never tumble dry the following: Particularly delicate items such as net curtains, woollen, silk, fabrics with metal trim,

nylon tights, bulky materials such as anoraks, blankets, eiderdowns, sleeping bags, feather quilts and any items containing rubber foam or materials similar to rubber foam.

Always follow the instructions on garment labels:

may be tumble dried

normal drying (high temperature)

delicate drying (low temperature)

do not tumble dry

Close pillowcases and covers with fasteners to prevent small laundry items getting tangled inside them. Close press studs, zips and hooks and tie belts and apron strings.

Sort laundry according to type and degree on drying required.

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

Avoid drying dark clothes with light coloured

fluffy items such as towels as they could attract the fluff.

The laundry must be thoroughly spun before tumble drying.

Easy-care items, too, e.g. shirts, should be briefly pre-spun before drying (depending on crease resistance approx. 30 seconds or using the special brief spin programme on your washing machine).

Knitted textiles (knitted underwear) may shrink a little during drying. Please do not overdry items of this type. It is advisable to allow for shrinkage when choosing the size of new purchases.

You can also put starched items into your dryer. However, to achieve the desired starched effect, choose the programme “iron dry”. To remove any starch residues, wipe out the internal drum after drying with a moist cloth and then rub it dry.

To avoid a static charge when drying is completed, use either a fabric softener when you are washing the laundry or a fabric conditioner specifically for tumble dryers.

Remove the laundry when the dryer has finished drying.

If individual items are still damp after drying,
