Nevertheless, as manufacturer we have to draw your attention to the following safety instructions. General safety • Repairs of the dryer may be carried out only by trained personnel. Incompetently carried out repairs can entail considerable hazards for the user. Please get in touch with our customer service or with an authorised AEG dealer when repair is necessary. • Before commencing operation please make sure that the nominal voltage and type of supply specified on the type plate of the appliance correspond to the actual nominal voltage and supply type at the place of utilisation. The fuse rating is also specified on the type plate. • Never operate the dryer when the mains cable is damaged or when the operator control mask, work plate or base shrouding are damaged such that there is direct access to the interior of the appliance. • Switch-off the dryer before carrying out any cleaning, care and maintenance tasks! You are quite safe if you disconnect the mains plug from the power outlet or – if the electrical connection is permanent – if you switch-off the circuit breaker in the fusebox or screw the fuse cartridge right out of its holder. • If the appliance will be out of operation for an extended period of time, unplug it from the mains. • Never pull on the cable to disconnect the mains plug from the power outlet. Always grasp and pull-out the plug. • Don’t lean on the opened door; this could make the appliance fall over. • Don’t use a water jet to spray-down the appliance. Danger of electric shock! • The covering hood for the filament lamp bulb for drum illumination must be screwed-on. • If you interrupt the drying process to take out laundry, bear in mind that the laundry and the drum could be hot. • Adaptors and extension cables must not be used. There is risk of fire because of overheating! 5 Important Safety Information Safety of children • Children are often not aware of the dangers involved when handling electrical equipment. Therefore provide the necessary supervision of children when operating the appliance and do not let children play with the dryer – there is a danger that children could become trapped inside the appliance. • Packaging parts (e.g. films, styropore) can be dangerous for children. Danger of suffocation! Keep packaging parts out of reach of children. • Make sure that children or small animals do not climb into the drum of the dryer. For this purpose keep the door of the dryer closed when the appliance is not in use. Utilisation in accordance with the intended purpose • Conversions or modifications of the dryer are forbidden for safety reasons. • Use the dryer only to dry ordinary household laundry! The manufacturer accepts no liability for any damage resulting from incorrect operation or utilisation for an unintended purpose. • Dry only laundry which has been washed in water. In particular, textiles which have been treated with inflammable cleaning agents and solvents (petrol-ether, alcohol, stain remover and similar materials) must not be dried in the dryer. Danger of fire! Explosion hazard! • Laundry items containing sponge rubber or rubber-like materials must not be dried in the dryer. Danger of fire! • Washing that is in poor condition (heavily worn) and items with loose fillings (cushions) that could break open must not be dried or refreshed. There is a risk of fire! • Washing with rigid components (foot mats) will cover the air slots; the slots will also be covered if the drum is overfilled. Observe the maximum load of 5 kg. There is a risk of overheating which could cause a fire! • Only dry washing that does not contain any explosive objects (fire lighters, spray cans). There is a risk of fire or an explosion! • In the case of washer / dryer tower combinations, do not place any objects on the dryer during use as they could drop down. 6 Important Safety Information Installation and connection • Check the dryer for Transportation damage. Never connect-up a damaged appliance! • Contact your supplier if the appliance is damaged. • If the tumble dryer has to be carried, first remove the plinth! 1 Important! The heat pump dryer may only be transported upright. If it is necessary to transport the dryer on its side then it should be laid only on its right side. After it has been transported wait for two hours before using for the first time. • Do not set-up the dryer in frost-endangered rooms! • Set-up the dryer horizontal! • Do not place the dryer on high-pile carpet floors! This would hinder air circulation at the ventilation slots! • If the dryer is placed adjacent to a gas, coal or electric cooking stove, interpose a thermally insulating non-combustible plate between the dryer and the stove (dimensions: 85x57,5cm). • The electric power plug connector of the appliance must remain accessible even after installation. • Check that the tumble dryer is not standing on the mains cable. • The technical conditions of the electric power supply company for making fixed connections of electrical appliances to the mains require that such connections may only be made by an authorised electrician. 7 General Information 3 General Information • Starched washing leaves traces of starch on the drum and therefore should not be placed in the tumble dryer. • If you exceed the maximum load stipulated in the program table your washing is more likely to get creased! For very delicate fabrics you should only fill in 1.5kg washing at the most. • For your information: 70 per cent of fabric wear is caused by being worn, 20 per cent by washing and only 10 per cent by being dried in a tumble dryer. As the fabric is worn down, fluff gathers in the fluff sieve. When using a tumble dryer, only approx. 0.03g fluff per kilogramme washing is produced. 8 Disposal 2 Disposal Packaging Dispose of the packaging material! Dispose of the packaging material of your tumble dryer correctly. All the packaging materials used are harmless to the environment and can be recycled. • Plastic parts are marked with standard international abbreviations: – >PE< for polyethylene, e.g. sheet wrapping material – >PS< for polystyrene, e.g. padding material (always CFC-free) – >POM< for polyoxymethylene, e.g. plastic clips • Cardboard packaging is manufactured from recycled paper and should be deposited in the waste paper collection for recycling. Disposal of the old appliance! The heat pump of your dryer contains a closed refrigerant circuit filled with the refrigerant R134a which is free from fluoro-chloro-hydrocarbons. Your old dryer must be disposed of correctly to protect the environment. • The dryer must not be disposed of with household or bulky refuse. • The refrigerant circuit in the heat pump must not be damaged. • You can obtain information about collection dates or public refuse disposal sites from your local refuse department or council. 1 Warning! When disposing of the tumble dryer, pull out the plug, cut off the flex, dispose of the plug and remaining flex and destroy the door lock. This hinders children from locking themselves in and endangering their lives. The materials can be recycled in accordance with their markings. Standard tools (crosshead screwdriver, hammer) are sufficient to dismantle the old appliance. 9 Environmental protection tips 2 Environmental protection tips • Your laundry will become light and soft in the tumble dryer even without a fabric softening agent. • Loosen your laundry before loading it into the dryer. This helps to prevent lengthy running times and creasing. Ensure your laundry is well spun. • Remove as much water as possible from the washing before drying! This is based on the principle: the better you spin the washing before drying the more economical the dryer is. In the following table we give an overview of specific electric consumption data depending on the spinning speed. This information is valid for 5kg laundry dried with the program COTTONS CUPBOARD DRY (BAUMWOLLE SCHRANKTROCKEN): Spinning/wringing out: Drying cycle: Residual dampness Revolutions per minute in litres in % Time required in Energy requirement minutes in kWh 800 3.5 70 100 1,75 1000 3.0 59 95 1,50 1200 2.7 53 85 1,45 1400 2.5 50 80 1,40 1600 2.2 44 75 1,33 • Observe the maximum load instructions. Whenever possible, dry full loads. 10 Environmental protection tips • Select the appropriate drying program for the type and quantity of laundry. The dryer will then operate as economically as possible.

Finally dry the remaining laundry with the program CUPBOARD DRY (SCHRANKTROCKEN). • Clean the fluff sieve after every drying program! • Empty the water reservoir after every drying process! 1 Caution! The condensed water is not suitable for drinking or for use with foodstuffs. You can use the collected condensed water as distilled water in the household, but first pour it through a paper filter bag. • Clean the fluff filter regularly! The dryer consumes less energy if you clean the fluff filter regularly. 11 The key features of your appliance The key features of your appliance • Dries at a low temperature, therefore no SPECIAL CARE (SCHON) button required • Up to 50 percent electricity saving compared with conventional dryers • Fluff filter behind plinth cover; protects the heat pump unit against fluff deposits • Program or time setting via the program selector • AUDIBLE SIGNAL (SIGNAL) can be selected in addition; an intermittent audible signal is sounded after the end of the program. • DELAY TIMER (ZEITVORWAHL): Program start delayed by 1 to 19 hours (e.g. for operation at times when electricity is cheaper) • Multi-display for displaying –probable program duration and time remaining until program end, –Time preselection (start time postponement or time remaining until program start, –Error code. • Indication of degree of drying • Program run display • Programming facility for permanent adaptation of the program sequence to your requirements. 12 The key features of your appliance How the condenser dryer WP functions The condenser dryer WP operates with an extremely compact and powerful heat pump such as is also found in modern house heating systems and systems for producing hot water. In conventional condenser dryers the heat extracted in the drying process escapes with the exhaust air. By using the heat pump, this heat is re-used to heat the drying air in the tumble dryer. Harnessing this extracted heat for the closed air circuit in the dryer is essentially where this dryer differs from conventional condenser dryers. This is what makes the enormous energy savings possible. 13 Description of the appliance Description of the appliance Front view Control panel Water reservoir with handle flap Fluff sieve Interior Light Rating plate Vent Feet (all height-adjustable) 14 Condenser Unit behind Removal Plinth Fluff filter behind plinth cover Reversible door Description of the appliance Control panel A B C D F E A Program selector: for setting the drying program B Drying degree indicator: Shows the achieved extent of drying; this enables you to take-out individual pieces of laundry at the right time during the drying process.

If they are one of the following symbols should be present on the care label: Q This fabric can be tumble dried. The fabric manufacturer does not stipulate if the piece of laundry should be dried on a normal or gentle program. R Normal drying S Drying with special care T Do not tumble dry If you do not find any of these care symbols: Dry whites and coloureds as well as mixed fabrics at normal temperature. • Wool Do not dry any woollen items in the dryer. As a follow-up treatment for woollen fabrics in quantities up to 1 kg select the WOOL (WOLLPFLEGE) programme. • Cotton jersey and hosiery have a tendency to shrink! Do not dry these fabrics excessively with the program EXTRADRY (EXTRATROCKEN). • New coloured textiles To avoid the possibility of dye transference do not dry new coloured textiles together with light-coloured laundry. Washing is always dried at a low temperature in your ÖKO-LAVATHERM WP, making it gentle on your washing. Any item of washing suitable for drying in a dryer may be dried in your tumble dryer without reservation. 25 Cleaning and maintenance Cleaning and maintenance Cleaning the fluff filter 1 Important! If the FILTER (FILTER) display flashes you must clean the fluff filter immediately. You dryer could otherwise be damaged. Moreover, if the fluff filter is not cleaned it consumes more energy. 0 Open the door. 0 Press on the two tabs to unlatch and take off the plinth cover. 0 Grip the handle to pull the fluff filter out of the base. 0 Clean the filter flap, preferably with a damp hand or by holding the filter under running water. 0 Position the filter flapvertically and insert the fluff filter again into the base of the appliance with a slight swivelling motion from below. 0 Re-fit the plinth cover. 1 26 Important! The dryer must not be operated without a fluff filter. Cleaning and maintenance The dryer is equipped with a special filter mat located behind the fluff filter on the face of the evaporator to protect the heat pump from soiling. Check the filter mat regularly! Considerable quantities of fluff can also be deposited here over time which can impair the functioning of the appliance. Clean the filter mat at least 4 times a year. Remove the filter mat and wash it out by hand. Fluff that has become embedded in the filter and cannot be removed by washing will not impair functioning. Insert the filter mat again so that it is positioned against the front of the heat exchanger. 1 Filter mat Important! The dryer must not be used without a filter mat! A soiled heat pump requires more energy and it is a costly procedure to clean it again. 27 Cleaning and maintenance Cleaning the filter area 1 Important! A small amount of fluff may reach the area around the filter in spite of the fluff filter. Therefore you should clean the entire filter area from time to time, or at least every three months. 0 Remove the fluff filter. 0 Hold the filter lid by the top and pull it forwards until it is released from both holders. 0 Remove the fluff from the entire filter area – preferably with a vacuum cleaner. 0 Press both pins of the filter lid into the holders on the door until they click in. 0 Reinsert the fluff filter. 0 Press against the filter lid until it clicks into the lock.

If you do not find any helpful information there, please contact your local customer service centre. It is nearby and if necessary can reach you quickly. (Addresses and phone numbers can be found in the Warranty Conditions/Service Departments) Be well prepared before you phone. This facilitates the diagnosis and the decision as to whether a customer service visit is necessary. With our checklist you can gather important information before making your call: Make a note of the PNC number and the S number. They are both on the rating plate behind your tumble dryer’s door. PNC ................................ S-No ................................ If possible establish: • How is the disturbance evident? • Under what circumstances does the disturbance occur? • Does the multi-display issue an error message? (( and a number)? When do you incur costs even during the warranty period? – if you could have solved the disturbance yourself with the help of the Troubleshooting table (see section "What to do if ..."), – if the customer service engineer has to make several journeys because he did not receive all the necessary important information before his visit and now e.g. has to fetch spares. You can avoid these extra trips by preparing your telephone call properly in the way described above. 39 AEG Hausgeräte GmbH Postfach 1036 D-90327 Nürnberg http://www.aeg.hausgeraete.de © Copyright by AEG 822 944 246–00- 0802/PRO Subject to change without notice
