Advice and tips before you tumble dry
Here are some tips that may help you before you begin tumble drying.
Have the clothes been spun?
Items to be tumble dried should be spun at 1000 rpm or faster. Higher spin speeds save both energy and drying time.
Materials that can be tumble dried
This symbol means that the material is suitable for tumble drying. Fabrics best suited to tumble drying are cotton fabrics, terry cloth, and synthetic fibers. Garments will be softer and lighter when tumbled than when hung out to dry.
Note!
The tumble dryer does not cause any significant wear to fabrics. The lint trapped in the lint filter consists of dust and fiber residues which gather when the items are used.
Materials that should not be tumble dried
This symbol means that the material is not suitable for tumble drying. Certain materials may melt or become a fire hazard if exposed to heat and others can lose their shape or shrink.
And do not tumble dry
• materials labeled "Do not dry near heat".
• garments that have been dry-cleaned at home.
• plastic foam.
• fiberglass material.
• wool must not be tumble dried due to the risk of piling.
Static electricity
To reduce the risk of static electricity in the laundry after tumble drying, you can:
• Use fabric softener when washing.
• Wait five minutes after the drying program ends before opening the door and removing the laundry from the dryer.
Note!
If the door is opened during the program, the program will be interrupted and will return to the start. The clothes may be too damp or too dry as a result.
Backlighting
Two minutes after the drying program finishes the backlighting on the display and option buttons enters energy saving mode.

Operating instructions
Warning!
To reduce the risk of electric shock or injury to persons, read the "Important Safety Instructions" section before operating this appliance.
Below are step-by-step instructions to help you achieve the best possible tumble drying results.
1
Sort your fabrics
You will achieve the most uniform drying results if the items are made of the same type of material. Close zippers and fasten buttons or belts; sort the items and adjust load and temperature.
2
Turn on the main power switch.
3
Open the door, load the items, and then close the door
4
Select the program
You select a program by turning the program selector. The name of the selected program is shown on the display. Select the desired options and press the Start button to start the tumble dryer.
Guidelines as to what specific programs can be used for.
Auto Heavy
This program is for items that are particularly difficult to dry, such as jeans with very thick seams.
Note!
Knitted fabrics in particular are prone to shrinkage.
Use the Auto Normal, Auto Delicate, or Auto Iron
Dry programs for these items. Stretch clothes back into shape immediately after drying.
Auto Normal and Auto Delicate
These programs shut off the heat once the load is dry but before it is "bone-dry". The Auto Normal program shuts off the heat slightly later than Auto
Delicate. Use trial and error to find out what works best. Use these programs when you want items to be completely dry.
Auto Iron Dry
This program shuts off the heat once the load is just damp enough for ironing or pressing.
Timed Dry
The program length you choose depends on what you intend to do with the items after drying them.
Use trial and error to find out what works best.
When you use Timed Dry to tumble dry a load of mixed fabrics, some of the garments may remain damp. Tumble dry any damp garments for a further 30 minutes or so using the Timed Dry program.
Specify the program time by pressing the + button.
You can choose a program time between 30 minutes and 3 hours. Press the - button to reduce the program time in 15-minute intervals. The symbol for time lights beside the selected time.
Note!
When using the Timed Dry program, garments can become "over-dry" if you have selected too long a drying time. This can cause the items to shrink or wrinkle and become rough. Synthetic materials can also become charged with static electricity.
Air Fluff
Use the Air Fluff program when you just want to refresh, air out,, or soften up items.
Specify the program time by pressing the + button.
You can choose a program time between 30 minutes and 3 hours. Press the - button to reduce the program time in 15-minute intervals. The symbol for time lights beside the selected time.

Selecting Options
By selecting options, you can tailor a drying program to suit your requirements. The machine remembers which options you choose for each program and uses them (with one exception – Delayed Start) the next time you select the same program. You can, of course, change this if you want.
Temperature
You can choose Temperature Low with all programs except Air Fluff.
• Select Temperature Low by pressing the button under the symbol.
• The lamp above the symbol lights when Temperature Low is selected.
Time Saver
You can choose Time Saver with all programs except Air Fluff. The program is shortened by about 12 minutes.
• Press the button under the symbol.
• The lamp above the symbol lights when Time
Saver is selected.
Anti Wrinkle
This option means that the drum will rotate for three seconds per minute for two hours after the drying program has finished. This option prevents the clothes from lying in the same position and getting wrinkled. This is a useful feature if you cannot take the laundry out as soon as the tumble dryer finishes. Cannot be selected with the Air
Fluff program.
• Select Anti Wrinkle by pressing the button under the symbol.
• The lamp above the symbol lights when Anti
Wrinkle is selected.
Delayed Start
First select which program you want to use and then select Delayed Start by pressing the + button.
The display shows Delayed Start in whole hours.
Press the + / - button to select a delayed start of
1 to 24 hours. The symbol for Delayed Start lights beside the number of hours. Press the Start button. The machine counts down 1 hour at a time and starts after the selected delay. This option cannot be used with the Timed Dry and Air Fluff programs.

Press the Start button
Remaining drying time
An estimate of the remaining drying time will be shown on the display a few minutes after the drying program starts. For example, 1:35 means it will take approximately 1 hour and 35 minutes for the load to dry. If the Anti Wrinkle option has been selected, the drum will rotate for 3 seconds every minute for 2 hours after the program is finished.
The actual remaining time may be longer than the estimated time shown on the display. The remaining time is then shown as "0:15" until the laundry is sufficiently dry. If you selected Time Saver, the display will show "0:05" instead.
Stopping or changing a program
Press and hold the Stop button for three seconds.
Note!
The program will not be affected if you change the program selector after the program has started.
Loading or removing laundry
You can stop the tumble dryer after starting a program by opening the door. Load more laundry or take out the items you want, close the door, and press the Start button. A new estimate of the remaining program time will be displayed after a few minutes.

Drying program finished
The text "END" appears on the display when the program is finished. If the Anti
Wrinkle option has been selected, the drum will rotate for 3 seconds every minute for 2 hours after the program is finished.

Care and maintenance instructions
Cleaning the lint filter
The lint filter must be cleaned after each load. If you have very hard water, this can cause limescale deposits in the lint filter. Check for any limescale deposits when cleaning the lint filter and, if necessary, wash the filter by hand. Additionally, the filter should be cleaned with hot water, detergent, and a soft brush quarterly.
1. Grasp the filter handle and pull it toward you.
2. Pull the filter out of its holder.
Cleaning the outside of the machine
Clean the outside of the machine and the program panel with a mild cleaner. Do not use solvents, as these can damage the machine. Do not hose down or spray the machine with water.
Note!
Do not allow dust to accumulate around the machine. Keep the area around the tumble dryer clean and cool; dust, heat, and moisture prolong drying times.
3. Open the filter and remove the lint from all sides of it by hand. Use a soft, dry cloth to remove any deposits.
16
4. Replace the filter in its holder.
Note!
If you have hard water, the filter should be washed with water to remove any limescale deposits. Use a sponge and a little dishwashing detergent if necessary. Dry the filter carefully with a towel. If you cannot remove the limescale, you can buy a new filter from the retailer where you bought the tumble dryer.

Troubleshooting
The machine will not start
Check
• that the door is properly closed.
• that the main power switch is on.
• that the machine is not programmed to start at a specific time (e.g., 13.30)
• that any plug is connected.
• that the fuses (circuit breakers) in your house are intact. Flip the dryer breaker off and then back on to make sure. You can not always tell from the outside if the circuit breaker has tripped.
• that the overheating cut-off has not been triggered (see below).
Overheating cut-off
The overheating cut-off shuts off the tumble dryer if the temperature is too high, caused by lint clogging the lint filter, for instance.
• Clean the filter.

Installation instructions
WARNING!
WARNING - Risk of fire.
Install the clothes dryer according to the manufacturer's instructions and local codes.
Do not install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic venting materials. If flexible metal (foil type) duct is installed, it must be of a specific type identified by the applience manufacturer as suitable for use with clothes dryers. Flexible venting materials are known to collapse, be easily crushed, and trap lint. These conditions will obstruct clothes dryer airflow and increase the risk of fire.
To reduce the risk of of severe injury or death, follow all installation instructions.
Save these instructions for future reference.
Positioning the tumble dryer
The tumble dryer can be freestanding or stacked.
Remember that the tumble dryer produces heat and should therefore not be located in a room that is too small. If the room is very small, drying will take longer due to the limited quantity of air.
Caution!
For proper ventilation, the machine should not be installed behind a door.
Caution!
The tumble dryer's toe kick ventilation must not be blocked by a rug or the like.
Tip!
If the unit must be installed behind a door should be louvered. To improve ventilation, the door where the tumble dryer is located should be left open when the dryer is in use.
Caution!
Clothes dryer installation must be performed by a qualified installer.
A. Freestanding
The tumble dryer can be positioned beside the washing machine.
B. Stacked
The tumble dryer can be placed on top of a ASKO washing machine. To stack the dryer, you need the stacking attachments (foot cups and anti-tip devices) that come with the machine: You will find
2 foot cups in a bag in the drum and 2 anti-tip devices attached to the bottom left corner at the back of the machine. Extension plates can be ordered from your local retailer.

Installation instructions
C. Built-in
22
ASKO dryers can be installed beneath a cabinet or worktop with a minimum height of 34” (864 mm). There must be a gap of about 1/2” (12 mm) all around the machine, including between the rear edge of the machine top panel and the back wall. The opening width must be at least 24-1/2”
(622 mm). The condensing models work best when they have good air circulation. Install the dryer so the condensed water will continuously flow into a drain or sink, you will need a drain outlet behind the unit. The maximum drain height is 40” (1016 mm).

Installation instructions
How to assemble the stacking kit:
1. Undo the anti-tip device.
5. Fit the plastic cups so that the "tags" marked with arrows are against the front edge or side edge of the cover and press them firmly onto the cover. Then break off the remaining tabs.
2. Remove the two screws indicated on the back of the washing machine.
6. Push out the knock-out hole on the back of the dryer (you don't have to completely remove the knockout, just fold it up far enough for the stacking bracket to fit inside the slot) using a hammer and screwdriver.
3. Secure the anti-tip device using the screws as shown in the picture.
4. Attach the plastic cups for mounting the tumble dryer’s front feet to the washing machine’s top cover. This is essential, as only when the tumble dryer’s feet are resting in the plastic cups can you be sure that the dryer is correctly positioned on the washing machine.
Break off tab A on the cup fitted on the right side and tab B on the cup fitted on the left side.
Then remove the paper from the self-adhesive surface under the plastic cups.
8. Lower the tumble dryer’s front feet into the plastic cups and adjust the dryer to ensure that it is balanced.

Connecting to a ventilation duct
You will need a UL-CSA-approved, 4-inch ridged metal exhaust duct. If a flexible duct is used, it must comply with the Outline for Clothes Dryer
Transition Duct. Subject 2158A and maximum length of 2.4 m (8 feet).
Note
The more bends and the longer the duct, the less air will circulate through the machine, which will impede drying performance. We recommend that you cut off any excess exhaust duct and run the duct with as few bends as possible. And make any necessary bends as gentle as possible.
Note
Maximum duct length of 60 feet and 4 elbows is allowed. Subtract 4 feet of duct for each 90° elbow. If more than 20 feet of duct is needed, the diameter must be increased to 6” or 8” (152 mm or 203 mm).
Note
When installing in warm climates (77° F and above) with high humidity levels, do not route the air exhaust duct upwards.

Electrical Connections
Warning!
Read the Electrical requirements and grounding instructions before connecting the tumble dryer.
Electric models of the dryer are manufactured for a 3-wire connection system. The dryer frame is grounded by a link to the neutral conductor on the dryer terminal block. If local codes do not permit grounding through the neutral, the grounding link from the terminal block must be removed and a separate ground wire must be used.
Only a 4-conductor cord shall be used when the applience is installed in a location where grounding through the neutral conductor i prohibited.
Grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited for new branch-circuit installations, mobile homes, recreational vehicles, and areas where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral condutors. The grounding link on the dryer must be removed for all 4-wire installations.
These Electrical Connection instructions provide for installing the dryer in the following situations:
3-wire connection where local codes permit grounding through the neutral. 3-wire connection plus separate grounding connector where local codes do not permit grounding through the neutral.
