USING THE APPLIANCE

SORTING THE WASHING

Before drying the washing, spin it at the recommended rpm for the type of load.

Spinning at maximum rpm will result in up to a 35% saving in energy. The higher the spin speed, the better the drying result.

Before drying the washing in the drier, check the items to make sure they can be machine dried.

Refer to the clothing care symbols on the labels.

If the label has no drying symbol, proceed as follows:

white/coloured washing and crease-proof washing can be dried at normal temperature using the appropriate drying program.
delicate washing, acrylics for example, must be dried at low temperature.

General advice:

Jersey often shrinks, not only in the wash but also during

drying.

Pure linen.

Only dry if indicated by the manufacturer on the label.
Otherwise, the fabric could roughen.
- Do not dry dark coloured washing together with light coloured washing in order to prevent discolouring.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS

Read these operating instructions carefully before using the drier.

This will ensure your safety and prevent damage to the drier.

Repairs to our driers can only be carried out by authorised personnel.

Repairs carried out by others or by the user may nullify the guarantee.

There is no electricity supply to the drier only if the plug has been removed

from the mains socket or if the main domestic supply switch has been switched off.

Children must be kept away from the drier when it is in operation.

Always close the door after using the drier.

This will prevent children from leaning on the door and possibly overturning the drier.

WARNING:

if the washing contains

parts in rubber or foam rubber;

if the washing has been treated with flammable detergent (stain removing fluid for example);
if the washing has been in contact with hair spray or nail varnish solvent or similar products; then there is a risk of fire!

Store these operating instructions in a safe place.

PREPARING FOR DRYING

Sort the washing into fabric types. ADVICE:

delicate fabrics (silk for example) that require dry cleaning or hand washing cannot be dried too often in the drier (see fabric label).
woollen items must have the "pure new wool" mark with the writing "will not fray", "superwash", "will not shrink" or similar. Woollen items with the "wool" mark only should not be dried in the drier.

fibrics containing rubber or foam rubber elements cannot be dried in the drier.
fibrics that have been treated with a stain removing fluid or poisonous or narcotic type products cannot be dried in the drier in that there is a risk of spontaneous combustion.

In some countries, the clothing items have wash labels with machine dry symbols.

In Holland, for example, this is still

not compulsory and not all items of clothing have these symbols. Nevertheless, the labels in question bear the following information:

MACHINE DRY
NORMAL FABRIC
HEAT SENSITIVE FABRIC
DO NOT MACHINE DRY

MAINTENANCE

DRAINING THE CONDENSATION WATER RESERVOIR

If the condensation drain hose is not connected directly to the drainage system, the condensation is collected in the reservoir (fig. 11).

The reservoir must be emptied after each drying cycle.

To empty the reservoir, proceed as follows:

remove the container from the drier Fig. 11).
empty the container. The drain hole is located on the

top right.

after emptying the container, replace it in position and slide it as far as it will go.
to continue, or start the program, repeat the operations from point "4" (condensation drain button).
If the reservoir is not emptied or it fills up during a drying cycle, the condensation reservoir warning light with light up and the drier will stop.

Then proceed as described above.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

1. Thread filter in the door (fig. 10)
2. Thread filter in the door opening (fig. 12).
3. Condenser. (fig. 13).

Disconnect the drier from the mains supply before cleaning.

It is important to clean the drier after each drying cycle

in order to save in drying time and consequently energy.

Remove the filter by pulling upwards and then clean it. (fig. 10).

MAINTENANCE

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

It is also possible to remove the two thread filters from the door opening and clean them (fig. 12).

The filters can be cleaned by simply placing them under hot running water.

The condenser should be

cleaned two or three times a year (fig. 13-16).

Open the door, rotate the lever to the vertical position and remove the cover (fig. 13).

Rotate the 3 levers to the vertical position and remove the condenser (fig. 14).

Wash the front and back (fig. 15-16) and sides of the condenser. To dry the condenser, rest it on one side on a towel.

When the condenser is dry, replace it following the same procedure in reverse order.

INTERNAL LIGHT

The drier is fitted with an internal light.

To replace the bulb, proceed as follows:

remove the plug from themains socket or switch offthe power supply.
remove the lamp cover.

remove the bulb (fig. 17).
Warning: Do not use bulbs of rating higher than 15 W!
Replace the lamp cover.

RECOMMENDATIONS

When drying large items, rearrange them during the drying cycle.
This will help reduce creasing to a minimum.
The washing must be spun dry before being

placed in the drum of the drier.

While the energy consumed by the spin is minimal, the drying action is another matter. It is recommended, therefore,

that the washing is spun dry whenever possible at the highest possible rpm or in a separate spin drier. In this way, the drying time is reduced with a resulting substantial saving in energy.

MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS

Always add a softener to the wash. This will improve the drying results and reduce drying time.

The layer of fibre threads in the filter is not the result of the drying procedure. The threads come from the

fibres of fabrics damaged or unthreaded during the wash and, above all, as a result of wear.
