Spin the laundry before drying.
The drier the laundry, the shorter
the drying time will be, thus
consuming less energy.
Load the dryer with the maximum
load.
Note: Do not exceed the maximum
load for the programs, as this
prolongs the drying time
and increases energy consumption.
Ventilate the room and keep the air
inlet on the dryer free to ensure air
exchange.
Clean the fluff filter after each drying
cycle. If the fluff filter is dirty,
the drying time is prolonged
and energy consumption is
increased.
Energy saving mode: If the dryer is
not operated for a prolonged period,
it automatically switches off before
the program starts and when
the program has ended to save
energy. The display panel
and indicator lamps go off after
a few minutes and the Start button
flashes. To activate the lighting,
press any button, open or close
the dryer door or turn the program
selector.

: Warning
Risk of explosion or fire!
Remove any cigarette lighters
and matches from pockets.
Caution!
The dryer drum and fabrics may be
damaged.
Remove all objects from pockets
and take note of the following
information:
■
Tie cloth belts, apron strings, etc.
together or use a laundry bag.
■
Close zips, hooks and eyes, and do
up any buttons.
■
To ensure a consistent drying result,
sort the laundry by fabric type
and drying programme.
■
Remove any metal objects, such as
paper clips, from pockets.
■
Knitted fabrics, such as T-shirts
and jerseys, often shrink slightly
the first time they are tumble-dried.
Use a gentle programme.
■
Do not over-dry easy-care laundry.
This increases creasing of
the laundry.
■
When washing laundry that is to be
tumble-dried afterwards, use
the correct amount of fabric softener
as specified in the manufacturer's
instructions.

Sorting washing according to:
c Suitable for tumble drying
a Dry at normal temperature
` Dry at low temperature
b Do not tumble-dry
If you dry thin- and thick-layered fabrics
and fabrics with several layers together,
these will dry to differing degrees.
To achieve an even drying result, you
should therefore only dry laundry of
the same type of fabric and structure
together. If you feel that the laundry is
still too damp afterwards, you can select
a time programme for subsequent
drying ~ Page 13.
Caution!
Risk of material damage to the dryer
or laundry.
Do not dry non-breathable fabrics, such
as rubber-coated laundry.

Operating the appliance
Clean the fluff filter
Note: During drying, fluff and hair from
the laundry is trapped by the fluff filter. If
the fluff filter is blocked or dirty, this
reduces the flow of air, which prevents
the dryer from achieving its maximum
performance. Clean fluff filters also
reduce energy consumption and the
drying time.
Clean the fluff filter after each drying
cycle:
1. Open the dryer door and remove all
fluff from the door.
2. Pull out the two-part fluff filter.
5. Open both filters and remove all
the fluff.
6. Rinse away the fluff under warm,
running water.
7. Dry the fluff filter, close it and reinsert
the two-part fluff filter.
3. Remove the fluff from the recess in
the fluff filter.
Note: Ensure that no fluff falls into
the open shaft.
4. Pull apart the two-part fluff filter.

Mains plug plugged in or fuse checked?
Programme selected? Select a programme.
Dryer door open? Close the door.
Childproof lock activated? Deactivate the childproof lock.
"Ready in" time selected? Programme starts after a delay ~ Page 14.
Creasing occurs when you have exceeded the maximum load or selected
the wrong programme for the type of fabric. All the required information
can be found in the programme table ~ Page 13.
Remove clothes immediately after drying; creasing may occur if they are
left in the drum.
Water is leaking out.
Not a fault; the dryer may be positioned on an incline. Level the dryer.
Laundry is not dried correctly or is still too damp.
After the end of the programme, warm laundry feels damper than it actually
is. Spread the laundry out and allow the heat to disperse.
■
Finely adjust the dryness level – this extends the drying time but does not
increase the temperature. Your laundry will become drier ~ Page 14.
■
Select a programme with a longer drying time or increase the drying level.
This does not increase the temperature.
■
Select a timed programme for subsequent drying of laundry that is still
damp ~ Page 13.
■
If you have exceeded the maximum load for the programme, the laundry
may not be dried properly.
■
Clean the moisture sensor in the drum. A fine layer of limescale may
adversely affect the performance of the sensors and your washing will not
dry properly ~ Page 23.
■
Drying has been interrupted as a result of a power cut, because the condensate container is full or because the maximum drying time has been
exceeded.
Note: See also the laundry tips ~ Page 12.

The fluff filter may be dirty and cause a longer drying time. Clean the fluff
filter.
If the air inlet on the dryer is blocked or not freely accessible, this may
increase the drying time. Make sure that the air inlet remains unobstructed.
If the ambient temperature is higher than 35 °C, this may extend the drying
time.
Insufficient air circulation in the room may increase the drying time.
Ventilate the room.

Residual water in the
condensate container
despite the dryer being
connected to the condensation drain*.
Not a fault. If the condensation drain is installed, residual water remains in
the condensate container due to the dryer's self-cleaning function.
Humidity in the room
increases.
Not a fault. Make sure the room is sufficiently ventilated.
Power cut.
The drying programme is interrupted. Remove the laundry and spread it out,
or restart the programme.
Unusual noises when
drying.
Not a fault. Noises are produced by the automatic cleaning of the heat
exchanger ~ Page 22.
The dryer feels cold
despite drying.
Not a fault. The dryer can dry efficiently at low temperatures using a heat pump.
