unloading dryer
The final part of a drying cycle occurs without heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that
the items reach a lower temperature to avoid wrinkling.
Anticrease: If the laundry is not removed at the end of the drying cycle, an automatic
anti-crease cycle will operate for maximum 15 min (by choosing the option
“Anticrease” this time can be extended up to 12 hours).
The drum rotates to prevent the laundry from creasing.
End: Take the laundry out of the dryer.
The drying process is complete and the anti-crease phase has been reached (active).

Quick Reference Guide
Indicator lamps and Options
Programme selector knob
“Remaining time” display
The drying programme is selected by turning
this knob.
The “Start (Pause)” indicator lamp flashes.
Depending on the programme selected a
default drying time is displayed.
After start of cycle the time displayed is
corrected depending on the volume, type and
moisture of the laundry.
The drying time specified is a calculated
value which will be updated during the
drying cycle.
The flashing lines indicate that the calculation
is running.
The remaining time will be updated.
“Start (Pause)” button
The drying programme is started by pressing
this button.
The indicator lamp lights up.
Door Filter
The indicator lamp lights up when the door
filter needs to be cleaned.
Clean the door filter at the end of every
drying cycle.
Eco Monitor
The “Eco monitor” gives you a rough
feedback about the energy consumption of
the selected programme.
This function will not work for a time based
programme.
As soon as you turn the programme selector
to any humidity steared programme, the
“Eco monitor” lamps will indicate the
expected energy consumption.
Bottom Filter
This indicator lamp lights up when the bottom
filter needs to be cleaned.
This indicator lamp is blinking, when the
bottom filter is not correctly positioned.
Please take care that the bottom filter is
correctly inserted and the handle is fully
engaged.
Water container
The indicator lamp lights up when the water
container needs to be emptied.
The drying cycle is automatically interrupted.
Empty the container and restart the drying
programme.
Empty the water container after every
drying cycle
The three indicators show the degree of
consumption: the less energy your
programme setting is forecasted to consume,
the less indicators will light up.
This depends on the programme, initial
moisture and options selected, and also on
the size of the load.
For that reason, the forecasted degree of
energy consumption may adapt when the
tumble dryer detects the load size.
End
The drying programme is finished.
Please unload the dryer.

any time either by pressing any button, by
rotating the programme selector or by
