have settled in transit.
Clothes Preparation
Make sure that the laundry you are going to dry
is suitable for drying in a tumble dryer, as shown
by the care symbols on each item.

rubber clothes (danger of fire or explosion).
During the last 15 minutes the load is always
tumbled in cool air.
Energy Saving

has been thoroughly wrung or spin-dried. The
drier the laundry the shorter the drying time thus
saving electricity.
ALWAYS

will save time and electricity.
● Check that the filter is clean before every
drying cycle.
NEVER
● Exceed the maximum weight, this will waste
time and electricity.

Note: The sensor may not detect a small load of
small articles. For small loads and separate
items or pre-dried fabrics with low moisture
content, use the timed programmes.
Set the programme between 30 and 75 minutes
depending on the load size and dryness
required, and select high or low heat depending
upon the fabric type.
If the sensor does not detect the item the dryer
will only operate for 10 minutes before going
into cooldown.
If the load is too large or too wet to tumble dry
the dryer will automatically go into cooldown
after approximately 3 hours.

DESCRIPTION
Select the degree of dryness that you require. This ranges from
for bath towels and bathrobes, through
for items that will be
put away without ironing, to the programme that leaves the laundry
suitable for ironing.
A gentle programme specially created to get woollens softer after
air-drying.This delicate warm air cycle, lasting 12 minutes, can
also be used to get woollens 'refreshed' after being stored in the
wardrobe.
The Relax programme provides a conditioning and anticrease
function. The dryer will heat the load for 9 minutes followed by a 3
minute cool down period and is especially good for garments
which may have been left for some time prior to ironing, in a linen
basket for example. Garments may also become stiffened when
dried outside on a washing line or inside on radiators.
This programme relaxes the creases in the fabric making ironing
quicker and easier.
40' Rapid
The 40’ Rapid programme allows a drying cycle to be completed
quickly. This is an ideal programme for having dry, refreshed and
ready-to-wear clothes in less than 40'. This special programme
constantly monitors the dryness and temperature in the drum
thanks to the sensor using, using the exact time and energy you
need! The machine finishes the cycle when the cupboard dry level
is reached. The stated cycle length could vary according to fabric
types, load size and residual moisture in the garments.The
maximum load is 2kg and the programme is suitable for all types of
fabric where tumble drying is appropriate.
