2 Environmental tips
• Your dryer will function most economically if you:
– always keep the ventilation slots on the base of the dryer unobstructed;
– use the loading volumes specified in the programme overview;
– ensure you have good ventilation in the installation room;
– clean the micro-fine filter and fine strainer after each drying cycle;
– spin the laundry well before drying. Example: Consumption data –
depending on spinning speed – for 6kg of laundry, dried using the
COTTONS STORAGE DRY programme.

not possible
• Do not dry new, coloured textiles together with light-coloured laundry items. Textile colours may bleed.
• Do not dry tricot or knitted items with the EXTRA DRY programme.
Items may become stuck!
• Do not dry wool in the dryer. May become entangled! After air-drying, wool may be dried with the WOOL CARE programme.
Preparing laundry
• To avoid laundry becoming tangled: Close zips, button up coverings
and tie loose bands or ribbons (e.g. of aprons).
• Empty pockets. Remove metallic items (paperclips, safety pins etc).
• Turn items with double-layered fabrics inside out (e.g. with cottonlined anoraks, the cotton layer should be outermost). These fabrics
will then dry better.

16
Emptying the water reservoir
1
Empty water reservoir after every drying cycle.
If the water reservoir is full, an active programme will be interrupted
automatically and the EMPTY WATER display will light up. In order to
continue the programme, the water reservoir must be emptied.
Warning! The condensed water is not suitable for drinking or for preparing foodstuffs.
1. Take out drawer containing water
reservoir completely (1) and pull up
the water reservoir’s drainage pipe

sink or other suitable container.
3. Slide outlet connections in and refit water reservoir.
If the programme has been interrupted as a result of the water reservoir being full:
Press the START/PAUSE button to
continue the drying cycle.
The water reservoir has a volume of approx. 4 litres. This is sufficient for
around 6kg of laundry which has previously been spun at 800 revolutions/minute.
The condensed water can be used as distilled water, e.g. for steam ironing. However first filter it (e.g. with a coffee filter) to remove any residue and small pieces of fluff.
17
Cleaning heat exchanger
1
If the HEAT EXCHANGER display is illuminated, the heat exchanger
needs to be cleaned.
Caution! Operating when the heat exchanger is clogged with lint can
damage the dryer. This also increases energy consumption.
1. Open loading door
2. Open base door. To do this, press
the release button located beneath
the loading aperture and open the
base door to the left.
3. Remove lint from the inside of the
door and the heat exchange chamber. Wipe the door seal with a
damp cloth.
4. Turn both lock washers inwards.
5. Use the handle to pull the heat exchanger out of the base and carry
it horizontally to prevent any remaining water from spilling.
6. To empty the heat exchanger, hold
vertically over a washing-up bowl.
1
Caution! Do not use sharp objects
to clean the heat exchanger. You
could damage it an cause leaks.
7. Clean heat exchanger.
It is best to use a brush or to rinse thoroughly with a shower head.
8. Replace heat exchanger and lock into place (turn both lock washers
outwards until they snap into place).
9. Close base door.
3

Cleaning the drum
1
3
Caution! Do not use abrasives or steel wool to clean the drum.
Lime in the water or cleaning agents may form a barely visible lining on
the inside of the drum. The degree to which the laundry has been dried
is then no longer detected reliably. The laundry is damper than expected when removed from the dryer.
Use a damp cloth, which has been soaked in water and a little vinegar,
to wipe the inside of the drum and drum ribs.
Clean operating screen and housing
1
Caution! Do not use furniture cleaners or aggressive cleaning agents to
clean the machine.
Use a damp cloth to wipe down the operating screen and housing.
