1.1 Children and vulnerable people safety

WARNING!

Risk of suffocation, injury or permanent disability.

• This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.
• Children between 3 and 8 years of age and persons with very extensive and complex disabilities shall be kept away from the appliance unless continuously supervised.

- Children of less than 3 years of age should be kept away from the appliance unless continuously supervised.

- Keep detergents away from children.

- Keep children and pets away from the appliance when the door is open.

- If the appliance has a child safety device, it should be activated.

- Children shall not carry out cleaning and user maintenance of the appliance without supervision.

1.2 General Safety

- Do not change the specification of this appliance.

- If the tumble dryer is put on top of a washing machine, use the stacking kit. The stacking kit, available from your authorized vendor, can be used only with the appliance specified in the instructions supplied with the accessory. Read it carefully before installation (refer to the Installation leaflet).

- The appliance can be installed as freestanding or below a kitchen counter with correct space (refer to the Installation leaflet).

- Do not install the appliance behind a lockable door, a sliding door or a door with a hinge on the opposite side, that would prevent the appliance door from being fully open.

• The ventilation opening in the base must not be covered by a carpet, mat, or any floor covering.

- WARNING: The appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by a utility.

- Connect the mains plug to the mains socket only at the end of the installation process. Make sure that the mains plug is accessible after installation.

• Ensure good air ventilation in the room where the appliance is installed to avoid the backflow of unwanted gases into the room from appliances burning gas or other fuels, including open fires.
• WARNING: Do not install the appliance in an environment with no air exchange.

The appliance contains flammable gas, propane (R290), a gas with a high level of environmental compatibility. Keep fire and ignition sources away from the appliance. Be careful not to cause damage to the refrigerant circuit containing propane.

- WARNING: In the appliance enclosure or in the built -in structure, keep ventilation opening clear of obstruction.

- WARNING: Do not damage the refrigerant circuit.

- If the mains power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its Authorised Service Centre or similarly qualified persons to avoid an electrical hazard.

- Do not exceed the maximum load of 8,0 kg (refer to the "Program chart" chapter).

- Do not use the appliance if items have been soiled with industrial chemicals.

- Wipe away lint or packaging debris that has accumulated around the appliance.

- Do not run the appliance without a filter. Clean the lint filter before or after each use.

- Do not dry unwashed items in the tumble dryer.

- 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.

- Fabric softeners, or similar products, should only be used as specified by the product manufacturer's instructions.

- Oil-affected items can 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 items can become hot enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing oil-affected items can prevent heat from escaping and create a fire hazard.

- If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or cooking oil or have been contaminated by hair care products be placed in a tumble dryer they should first be washed in hot water with extra detergent -this will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard.

- Remove all objects from items that could be a source of fire ignition such as lighters or matches.

- 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.

- Before any maintenance operation, deactivate the appliance and disconnect the mains plug from the socket.

9. DAILY USE

9.1 Preparing the laundry

Very often the clothes after washing cycle are kneaded and tangled altogether. Drying kneaded and tangled clothes is inefficient. To assure proper air flow and even drying it is recommended to shake and load one by one the clothes to the tumble dryer.

To assure proper drying process:

• Close the zips.
• Close the fasteners of duvet covers.
• Do not dry ties or ribbons loose (e.g. apron ribbons). Tie them before you start a program.
• Remove all items from pockets.
• Turn items with the internal layer made of cotton inside out. Cotton layer must be faced outwards.

• Always set the program suitable for the type of laundry.
- Do not put light and dark colours together.
- Use suitable program for cottons, jersey and knitwear to reduce shrinkage.
- Do not exceed the maximum load stated in the programs chapter or shown on the display.
- Dry only the laundry that is suitable for tumble drying. Refer to the fabric label on the items.
- Do not dry large and small items together. Small items can be trapped inside the large items and remain wet.
- Shake the large clothes, fabrics before placing in the tumble dryer. It is to avoid moist places inside the fabric after the drying cycle.

Fabric label Description
	Laundry is suitable for tumble drying.
	Laundry is suitable for tumble drying at higher temperatures.
	Laundry is suitable for tumble drying at low temperatures only.
	Laundry is not suitable for tumble drying.

9.2 To achieve best drying results

• The selected program must be adequate to the type of dried clothes.

• Room temperature is too low or too high. Optimal room temperature is between 18^ - 25^ .

• Clean the filter after each drying cycle.

• Do not use fabric softener to wash and then dry. In the tumble dryer laundry becomes soft automatically.

• The water from the water container can be used to iron the clothes. You must first filter the water to eliminate remaining textile fibres (simple coffee filter is suitable).
  • Always keep the airflow slots at the bottom of the appliance clear.

• Make sure there is good airflow where the appliance is to be installed.

10.2 Adjustment of default dryness level

Extra dryness	+###	[0=

11. CARE AND CLEANING

11.1 Cleaning the filter

At the end of each cycle the ⚙️ Filter symbol comes on the display and you must clean the filter.

The filter collects the lint during the drying cycle.

Dryness level	Display symbol
Standard dryness	[803W]

1. To memorise the setting touch and hold down the Dryness Level and Anti-crease buttons at the same time for approximately 2 seconds.

10.3 Deactivating the tank indicator

The water container indicator is activated by default. It illuminates at the end of the drying cycle or during the cycle if the water reservoir is full. If the draining kit is installed the water container is drained automatically and the indicator can be deactivated.

To deactivate the indicator:

1. Turn the appliance on.
2. Wait approximately 8 seconds.
3. Select 1 of the available programs.
4. Touch and hold down Anti-crease and Time Drying buttons at the same time.

One of 2 configurations is possible:

11.4 Cleaning the humidity sensor

CAUTION!

Risk of humidity sensor damage. Do not use abrasive materials or steel wool to clean the sensor.

To assure best drying results the appliance is equipped with metal humidity sensor. It is placed on the inner side of the door area.

Over usage time the surface of the sensor may get dirty which deteriorates the drying performance.

We recommend to clean the sensor at least 3 or 4 times or if you observe the drop of drying performance.

To clean you can use harder side of dish-washing sponge and bit of vinegar or dish soap.

To clean the sensor:

1. Open the loading door.
2. Clean the surfaces of the humidity sensor wiping off the metal surface several times.
