TO BE READ AND OBSERVED Before using the dryer carefully read, Health and Safety and Use and Care guides. Keep these instructions close at hand for future reference. YOUR SAFETY AND SAFETY OF OTHERS IS VERY IMPORTANT. This manual and the dryer itself provide important safety warnings, to be read and observed at all times. This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol or the word DANGER or WARNING. These words mean: DANGER Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will cause serious injury. WARNING Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could cause serious injury. All safety warnings give specific details of the potential risk presented and indicate how to reduce risk of injury, damage and electric shock resulting from improper use of the dryer. Carefully observe the following instructions. Failure to observe these instructions may lead to risks. The Manufacturer declines any liability for injury to persons or animals or damage to property if these advices and precautions are not respected. Very young (0-3 years) and young children (3-8 years) shall be kept away unless continuously supervised. Children from 8 years old and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge can use this dryer only if they are supervised or have been given instructions on safe appliance use and if they understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the dryer. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision. Items that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers should be washed in hot water with an extra amount of detergent before being dried in the tumble dryer. Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubber backed articles and clothes or pillows fitted with foam rubber pads should not be dried in the tumble dryer. Remove all objects from pockets such as lighters and matches. Do not use the tumble dryer if chemicals have been used for cleaning. Oil-soaked items ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat sources such as in a tumble dryer. The items become warm, causing an oxidation reaction in the oil. Oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot escape, the item can become hot enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing oil-soaked items can prevent heat from escaping and so create a fire hazard. WARNING Never stop a tumble dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated. The last phase of the drying cycle is done without heat (cool down phase), to assure that the laundry stays at a temperature level which is not 5 leading to a damaging of the laundry. If you want to stack the dryer on a washing machine, first contact our After-Sales Service to verify if this is possible. Stacking of a dryer is only admitted if the dryer is safely fixed on the washing machine by using an appropriate stacking kit.

After the programme has finished, it therefore switches off automatically after about a quarter of an hour. ENERGY SAVING TIPS • The optimum ambience temperature for the dryer is between 15 and 20 °C. In case of a higher temperature, air the room. • To reduce the drying time, make sure that the laundry is spun with the maximum possible spin speed of the wash programme. This reduces the moisture content in the laundry. • Preferably dry a full load, as indicated in the Programmes table. This optimizes the relative energy consumption. • Do not over dry the laundry. • Clean the door filter after every drying cycle. • Clean the bottom filter about every two months. 20 • Use Gentle option only with small loads. • When drying cotton or synthetics laundry, run Iron dry and Cupboard dry loads together. Start the programme with dryness level Iron dry. At the end of the programme, remove the laundry to be ironed. Finish the drying process for the remaining load with dryness level Cupboard dry.
