Before using for the first time
Allow the appliance to stand for about 2 hours in the normal operating position. Failure to do so can result in damage to the appliance.
• The appliance must be installed and connected to the electricity supply in accordance with the separate installation instructions. The necessary work should be carried out by a qualified fitter or electrician.
• Dispose of the packaging material in accordance with local regulations.
• Ensure access to the place of disconnection (e.g. socket outlet, wall switch, fuse).
• It is advisable to wipe out the drum with a damp cloth.
• Please follow the precautions in the U SING FOR THE FIRST TIME section before operating the newly installed appliance.
1.3

• Unwashed washing.
• Textiles that have been cleaned, treated or soaked with flammable chemicals, detergents or solvents (benzine, alcohol, stain remover, oil, paint, wax, etc). Fire or explosion hazard!
Wash materials containing such substances first by hand with water or allow the solvent to evaporate completely.
• Fabrics with traces of hair spray, hair gel, nail varnish remover or other similar substances. Danger of gas build-up!
• Washing containing foam rubber or other rubber-like material. Ignition hazard!
1.4
Children in the home

Note on use
Do not use the pivoting operating panel to lift or move the appliance.
• Do not use the appliance if visibly damaged or if the inlet pipes are damaged. Contact Customer Services.
• If the appliance is not operating properly, disconnect it from the electricity supply immediately.
• If the mains cable of the appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by

• Take care not to allow fluff to build up around the drier.
• Before closing the appliance door and starting a programme, ensure that there are no foreign objects or pets in the drum.
• During the drying process, the back, drum and inside of the appliance door become hot. Care should be taken to avoid touching these parts.
• Never end the drying programme prematurely. A short cooling phase takes place at the end of the drying programme. Providing you are able to do so, remove the load quickly and spread it out to enable the heat to evaporate.
• The condensate water collected is not suitable for drinking.
• During longer periods of non-use, switch off the electricity by pulling out the mains plug. Never pull the mains plug out by the cable.

Appliance description
The appliance operates with a closed air circuit. With the help of the heat pump, the moisture is extracted from the air which is then heated up again.
Recovering heat in this way sharply reduces energy consumption. The appliance has no electric heating element.
Thanks to the heat pump, the appliance dries at lower temperatures. All the programmes are therefore gentler on your laundry.
The condensate water collected is discharged through an outlet at the rear into the drainage system.
In general, as heat pumps give off a certain amount of moisture, rooms in which there are heat pumps should be aired. If the room is kept closed, it should be aired occasionally (either by opening the door to the room or a window) between several consecutive drying programmes.

3 Programme overview
3.1
Programme sequence for automatic programmes
The drying programme has 3 phases:
Drying
The washing is tumble dried until it reaches the set level of dryness. The drying programme is monitored by a moisture sensor. As soon as the required level of dryness is reached, the «Cooling down/airing» phase starts.
Cooling down/airing
The washing is cooled down to a temperature at which creasing is minimized.
This phase lasts between 1–10 minutes. The washing can now be unloaded.
If the washing is not unloaded, the «Crease guard» programme starts.
Crease guard
The dried washing is moved at frequent intervals to prevent creasing.
If the «Easy care» function has been selected «Crease guard» runs
90 minutes, otherwise with all other programmes it runs 30 minutes. «Crease guard» can be stopped at any time simply by opening the appliance door or by pressing the button.

6 Care and maintenance
6.2
Error message A9
A thick coating of fluff results in a reduced process air flow which can impair the drying process and activate fault message «A9».
Check and, if necessary, clean the following parts in the appliance:
• Door filter
• Base cassette
• Mesh filter in base
• Filter mat in base mesh filter
If the error message still appears after the mesh filter in base and the filter mat have been cleaned, clean the filter mat (in front of the heat pump) carefully using a vacuum cleaner.
6.3
Build-up of fluff
Fluff is made up of fine textile fibres that largely come from the manufacturing process, from wear and tear during use and from items being washed. Fluff is not caused by excessive strain on the washing in the appliance. Even when washing is hung out to dry on a washing line, fluff is shed when the washing is shaken out or ironed.
Fluff sticks to washing when it is wet. The fluff is released during tumble drying and gets trapped in the door filter. This is why there is always a build-up of fluff in the filter – sometimes more, sometimes less depending on the type of washing – after tumble drying.

8 Drying tips
8.1
Fabric care symbols
To select the right drying programme, follow the fabric care symbols on garment labels.
Tumble dry, medium heat
Tumble dry, low heat
Do not tumble dry
General tips
• For the wash you are recommended not to use fabric conditioners or other fabric care solutions, otherwise comply with the manufacturer’s instructions. Tumble drying automatically leaves fabrics soft and fluffy.
• The use of fabric conditioner in the wash can lead over time to the formation of a thin, barely visible film in the drum and on the moisture sensors. This can cause a malfunction resulting in the washing not being dried to the level of dryness required.
• Use tumbler dryer sheets sparingly.
• Protect items of washing from getting damaged.
➤ Fasten duvet and pillow cases, hook and eye fasteners and zips.
➤ Fasten cloth belts and apron ties.
• Only put a few items of washing in the drum when drying fabrics that crease easily.
• When drying bulky items (e.g. sleeping bags, duvets, etc.) strictly follow the fabric care symbols.
47
8 Drying tips
• Woollen and silk fabrics often carry the «Do not tumble dry» label.
➤ For woollen and silk fabrics, follow the fabric care symbols on garment labels.
➤ Press the button and select the relevant programme.
• For easy-care fabrics (e.g. shirts and cotton mixed fabrics), additionally select the easy care function and put only a few items in the drum.
• Knitted and woven items (e.g. T-shirts) tend to shrink. Additionally select the easy care function.
• Items of clothing with metal fasteners (e.g. overalls) should be tumble dried using the additional
MIN.
timed drying programme. The metal fasteners could cause the washing to be overdried in an automatic programme.
Energy saving tips
• Well-spun washing requires a shorter drying time and saves energy.
➤ Spin washing well before tumble drying. Tumble drying largely removes creases that come from spinning in the washing machine.
• Dirty fluff mesh filters and filter mats reduce the air flow rate when drying and result in longer drying times and a high energy consumption.
➤ Fluff mesh filters and filter mats must be cleaned regularly in accordance with the operating instructions.
• The maximum capacity of the relevant programme should be used to its full extent.
• Small, light wash items dry more quickly; different materials can have different drying durations.
➤ Sort items according to type and size to avoid over-drying of individual items.
