Drying programmes

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, set a brief post-drying time, but at least 30 minutes. This will be necessary particularly for multilayered items (e.g. collars, pockets, etc.).
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
10
Make sure that no metal objects are left in the laundry (e.g. hair clips, safety pins, pins).
Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners, hooks and poppers. Tie any belts or long tapes.
To avoid laundry becoming tangled: close zips, button up duvet covers and tie loose ties or ribbons (e.g. of aprons). Turn items with double-layered fabrics inside out (e.g. with cotton lined anoraks, the cotton layer should be outermost). These fabrics will then dry better.
Maximum loads
Recommended loads are indicated in the pro­gramme charts.
General rules:
Cotton, linen: drum full but not too tightly
packed;
Synthetics: drum no more than half full; Delicate fabrics and woollens: drum no
more than one third full.
Try to load to the maximum capacity of the machine as small loads are uneconomical.

Allows you to select electronically con­trolled or time con­trolled drying. Turn the dial to the required programme or time.
Electronically con­trolled drying (auto­matic)
The appliance runs these programmes with the help of probes which detect the degree of damp­ness of the laundry. Simply select the pro­gramme according to the type of laundry and degree of drying required.
The selector dial can be turned either clock­wise or anticlockwise. The lights Drying, Cooling and End come on.
At the end of the programme the selector dial must be turned to posi­tion O, to switch the machine off.
Attention!

Press this button to start the dryer after having selected the programme and the options. The relevant light will stop flashing. If the programme selector dial is turned to another position, when the machine is running, the buzzer will sound and the programme phase indicator lights will flash. The drum turns alternately in both directions during dry­ing.
All drying pro­grammes end with a 10 minute cooling phase (light Cooling is on). You may remove the laundry after this phase.
Indicator lights
These lights indicate the following func­tions:
• Drying light
This light indicates that the appliance is in the drying phase.
• Cooling light
This light indicates that the appliance is in the cooling phase. At the end of drying, there is a 10 minute cool­ing phase to cool the laundry.
• End of pro­gramme light
This light is on at the end of the cooling phase, during the anti­creasing phase and at the end of the programme.
• Filter cleaning
This light illumi­nates at the end of the programme to remind you that the filters must be cleaned.

At the end of the programme
All drying pro­grammes end with a 10 minute cooling phase.
If the laundry is not removed at the end of the cycle, the dryer performs an anti­creasing phase (dura­tion: 30 minutes maxi­mum).
If you do not remove the laundry, the dryer will stop automatically at the end of the anti­creasing phase. Lights end and filter remain lit and the buzzer sounds for 2 minutes. Turn the pro­gramme selector dial to “0”; all the lights go out. The appliance is switched off.
Remove the laundry. If you open and then close the door before turning the selector dial to “0” all the indi­cator lights come on.
After each use
• Clean the filters.
Important!
If the drying pro­gramme has to be stopped before it reaches the end, we recommend that you turn the programme selector dial to posi­tion Cooling and wait until the end of this cooling phase before removing the laundry. This will avoid a build-up of heat inside the appli­ance.To do this first turn the dial to “O” and then to Cooling and depress Start but­ton.
Modifying the programme
To change a pro­gramme which is run­ning, first cancel it by turning the pro­gramme selector dial to “O”. Select the new programme and press the Start button.

Important:
You must DISCONNECT the appliance from the electricity supply, before you can carry out any cleaning or maintenance work.
External cleaning
Use only soap and water and then dry thoroughly.
Important: do not use methylated spirit, diluents or similar products.
Cleaning the door
Clean periodically the interior part of the door to remove any fluff from the seals around the filter. Accurate cleaning ensures correct drying.
Cleaning the filters
Your dryer will only function well if the filters are clean. The filters collect all the fluff which accumulates during drying and they must therefore be cleaned at the end of each programme, before removing the laundry, with a damp cloth. The light is on to remind you this operation.
Care and cleaning
125989121.qxp 2007-07-06 12:02 Page 13

Important:
Do not use the appliance without filters.
Cleaning the drum
When your laundry does not reach the desired degree of dryness, in other words, when it turns out either too dry or too damp, we advise you to clean the inside of the drum with a cloth soaked with vinegar.
This will eliminate the slight patina that has formed in the drum (due to residues of detergent and softeners used in the washing, and to the lime contained in the water), which prevents the probes from detecting the correct degree of dryness.
