Energy-saving tips
Spin the laundry before drying. The drier the laundry, the shorter the drying time will be, thus consuming less energy.
- Load the dryer with the maximum load.
Note: Do not exceed the maximum load for the programs, as this prolongs the drying time and increases energy consumption.
- Ventilate the room and keep the air inlet on the dryer free to ensure air exchange.
Clean the fluff filter after each drying cycle. If the fluff filter is dirty, the drying time is prolonged and energy consumption is increased.
Energy saving mode: If the dryer is not operated for a prolonged period, it automatically switches off before the program starts and when the program has ended to save energy. The display panel and indicator lamps go off after a few minutes and the Start button flashes. To activate the lighting, press any button, open or close the dryer door or turn the program selector.

Draining the condensation water
Condensation will form in the appliance as it dries the laundry.
You must ensure that the drain hose is connected when you operate the appliance.
If there is no drain hose connected to the appliance, the condensation water from the appliance will run into the condensation container. In this case, you will need to empty the condensation container each time the dryer finishes drying the laundry, and also if it becomes full before drying is complete.
Connect the drain hose as follows:
- Remove the accessories from the dryer drum.
-
When the dryer is delivered from the factory, the hose for discharging the condensation into the condensation container is fastened to the connecting piece.
-
Disconnect the hose from the connecting piece and put it in the "parked" position.
- Take the drain hose from the accessories and secure it to the free connecting piece.
- Fasten the other end of the drain hose with the remaining accessories, depending on the connection situation (A, B or C).
Caution!
Accumulated water can be drawn back into the dryer and may cause material damage.
Check that the water drains away from the wash basin quickly. The drain must not be sealed or blocked.
Caution!
Material damage due to leaks or draining water.
Secure the drain hose so that it cannot slip out. Do not kink the drain hose. Ensure that a height difference of max. 100 cm and min. 80 cm between the installation surface and the drain is maintained for drainage into a siphon.
- Pull out the condensation container fully.
- Turn the condensation container 180^ onto its underside and remove the stopper that is fitted. Turn the condensation container back over and insert the stopper into the recess in the top of the condensation container.
- Pull the filter out of the lock-in slot and place it into the recess in the top of the condensation container.
- Slide in the condensation container until it clicks into place.
The condensation is now discharged via the drain hose into the waste-water system or into a wash basin
Note: If you want to drain the condensation water back into the condensation container, reverse these steps.

Laundry
Preparing the laundry
Warning
Risk of explosion/fire!
Remove any cigarette lighters and matches from pockets.
Caution!
The dryer drum and fabrics could be damaged.
Remove all objects from pockets and observe the following information:
- Tie cloth belts, apron strings, etc. together or use a laundry bag.
- Close zips, hooks and eyelets and buttons. Button up large items of laundry, such as covers.
- Remove any metal objects, such as paper clips, from pockets.
To ensure a consistent drying result, sort laundry by fabric type and drying programme.
Always dry very small items of laundry, e.g. babies' socks, together with large items such as towels.
Knitted fabrics such as T-shirts and jackets often shrink the first time they are tumble-dried. Use a gentle programme. - Do not overdry easy-care laundry. This increases creasing of the laundry.
Use timed programmes for single garments.
Some detergents and care products, e.g. starch or softeners, contain particles which may be deposited on the moisture sensor. This may impair the sensor function and in consequence the drying result.
Notes
- When washing laundry to be tumble-dried, use the correct amount of detergent and care products as specified in the manufacturer's instructions.
Clean the moisture sensor regularly Page 33.
Sorting washing according to:
Suitable for tumble drying
Dry at normal temperature
Dry at low temperature
Do not tumble-dry
Note: Do not load laundry from the washing machine directly into the tumble dryer. Sort the spun laundry before placing it in the dryer drum.
If you dry thin, thick and multi-layer fabrics together, they will dry to differing degrees. To achieve an even drying result, you should therefore only dry together laundry of the same type of fabric and structure. If you feel that the laundry is still too damp, you can select a timed programme for subsequent drying Page 24.
Caution!
Possibility of material damage to the dryer or laundry.
Do not tumble-dry the following fabrics:
- Laundry contaminated with oil.
Unwashed fabrics.
Non-breathable fabrics (e.g. rubber-coated). - Easily damaged fabrics such as silk, synthetic curtains.

The programme can be interrupted at any time; to pause, open the dryer door or press the Start button.
Caution!
Risk of fire. Laundry may catch fire.
If you cancel the programme, you must remove the laundry items and spread them out so that the heat can disperse.
Programme end
End appears in the display panel.
Removing laundry and switching off the dryer
- Remove the laundry.
- Turn the programme selector to the "off" position.
Clean the fluff filter
Note: During drying, fluff and hair from the laundry is trapped by the fluff filter. If the fluff filter is blocked or dirty, this reduces the flow of air, which prevents the dryer from achieving its maximum performance. Clean fluff filters also reduce energy consumption and the drying time.
Clean the fluff filter after each drying cycle:
- Open the dryer door and remove all fluff from the door.
- Pull out the two-part fluff filter.
- Remove the fluff from the recess in the fluff filter.
Note: Ensure that no fluff falls into the open shaft.
- Pull apart the two-part fluff filter.
- Open both filters and remove all the fluff.
- Rinse away the fluff under warm, running water.
- Dry the fluff filter, close it and reinsert the two-part fluff filter.
Caution!
The dryer may be damaged.
Do not operate the dryer without a fluff filter or if the fluff filter is defective.
Emptying the condensate container
By default, the condensation from the appliance runs into the condensation container.
Alternatively, you have the option of discharging the condensation water supplied depending on the model. If you choose to discharge the condensation water into the waste-water system, you will not need to empty the condensation container during the drying programme or after each time you use the dryer.
- Pull out the condensate container horizontally.
- Pour out the condensation water.
Caution!
Dirty condensation water may be harmful to your health and cause material damage.
Condensation water is not suitable for drinking and may be contaminated with fluff. Do not drink the condensation water or reuse it.
-
into the waste-water system via a drain hose
-
Push in the condensate container until you feel it lock back into place in the dryer.
Note: The filter in the condensate container filters the condensation which is used during the dryer's automatic cleaning cycle. The filter is cleaned by emptying the condensation. Nevertheless, you should check the filter regularly for remaining deposits and remove them. See Page 34.
Signal setting
You can change the following settings:
The speed at which the washing machine was spun; only used if the anticipated drying time needs to be displayed more accurately,
The volume of the audible signal at the end of the programme,
The volume of the audible button signals.
You will need to activate the setting mode in order to change these settings.

Exiting setting mode
Turn the programme selector to the "Off" position once you have set the required spin speed and the volume. The settings have now been saved.
Noises
Note: During drying, particularly in the initial phase, operation of the appliance results in noise from the compressor and pump. This is perfectly normal and does not impair proper functioning of the appliance.
From time to time, the compressor in the dryer generates a humming noise. However, the volume may vary depending on the programme and progress of the drying process.
Every now and then, the compressor is ventilated. This creates a whirring noise.
The automatic cleaning of the dryer causes a clicking sound.
The condensation is pumped into the condensate container by a pump. This generates pumping noises.
Cleaning
Cleaning the dryer and the control panel
Warning
Risk of death!
There is a risk of electric shock as the dryer is operated with electricity.
Disconnect the dryer from the mains before cleaning.
Clean the dryer using only water and a soft, damp cloth.
Remove all detergent residue, spray residue or other residues immediately.
Do not use cleaning agents or agents for pre-treating laundry (e.g. dewash sprays, stain removers). Do not use high-pressure cleaners or steam jet cleaners to clean your appliance.
Cleaning the moisture sensor
Note: The dryer is equipped with a stainless-steel moisture sensor. The moisture sensor measures how damp the laundry is.
After long periods of usage the moisture sensor may become covered by a fine layer of limescale or residues of detergents and care products. Such residues must be removed regularly as the sensor function and in consequence the drying result may be impaired.
Open the door and clean the moisture sensor with a coarse sponge.
Caution!
Moisture sensor may be damaged.
Do not clean moisture sensors with abrasives and steel wool.
Cleaning the filter in the condensate container
Note: The filter in the condensate container cleans the condensation water that is used during the dryer's automatic cleaning cycle.
- Pull out the condensate container horizontally.
- Pour out the condensation water.
- Remove the filter.
- Clean the filter under warm, running water or in the dishwasher.
- Push in the filter until you feel it lock into place.
Caution!
The dryer may be contaminated with fluff and thus become damaged.
Only operate the dryer with the filter inserted.
- Push in the condensate container until you feel it lock into place.
Faults and what to do about them
| Faults | Cause/remedy |
| on the display panel and drying has been interrupted. | Empty the condensation container and press the Start button → Page 30. If the optional condensation drain* is installed, the drain hose may be blocked or kinked. Check the hose for deposits and rinse the hose. Lay the hose without any kinks. |
| on the display panel. | Clean the fluff filter and press the Start button → Page 29. |
| cleaning on the display panel. | Not a fault. The heat exchanger is cleaned automatically. Do not pull out the condensation container while this is displayed. |
| Dryer will not start. | Mains plug plugged in or fuse checked? Programme selected? Select a programme. Dryer door open? Close the door. Is the childproof lock activated? Deactivate childproof lock. "Ready in" time selected? Programme starts after a delay → Page 26. |
| Creasing. | Creasing occurs when you have exceeded the maximum load or selected the wrong programme for the type of fabric. All the required information can be found in the programme table → Page 24. Remove clothes immediately after drying; creasing will occur if they are left in the drum. |
| Water is leaking out. | Not a fault; the dryer may be sloping. Level the dryer. |
| Change in the programme duration displayed during drying. | Not a fault. The moisture sensors detect the remaining moisture in the load and adjust the programme length (except timed programmes). |
| Laundry is not dried correctly or is still too damp. | After the programme has ended, warm laundry feels damper than it actually is. Spread the laundry out and allow the heat to disperse. Finely adjust the dryness level – this extends the drying time but does not increase the temperature. Your laundry will become drier → Page 26. Select a programme with a longer drying time or increase the dryness level. This does not increase the temperature. Select a timed programme to add extra drying time for laundry that is still damp → Page 24. If you have exceeded the maximum load for the programme, the laundry may not be dried properly. Clean the moisture sensor in the drum. The sensor may become covered by a fine layer of limescale or residues of detergents and care products which then impair its function. Your laundry is not being dried correctly → Page 33. Drying has been interrupted as a result of a power cut, because the condensation container is full or because the maximum drying time has been exceeded. Note: See also the laundry tips → Page 23. |
| Drying time too long? | The fluff filter may be dirty and cause a longer drying time. Clean the fluff filter. If the air inlet on the dryer is blocked or not freely accessible, this may increase the drying time. Make sure that the air inlet remains unobstructed. The optimum ambient temperature for drying is between 15 °C and 30 °C. Outside of this range, the drying time may increase. Insufficient air circulation in the room may increase the drying time. Venti-late the room. |
| Display panel goes off and Start button flashes. | Not a fault. Energy-saving mode is active → Page 12. |
| Residual water in the condensation container despite the dryer being connected to the condensation drain*. | Not a fault. If the condensation drain is installed, residual water remains in the condensation container due to the dryer's self-cleaning function. |
| Humidity in the room increases. | Not a fault. Make sure the room is sufficiently ventilated. |
| Power cut. | The drying programme is interrupted. Remove the laundry and spread it out or restart the programme. |
| Unusual noises when drying. | Not a fault. Noises are produced by the automatic cleaning of the heat exchanger → Page 32. |
| The dryer feels cold despite drying. | Not a fault. The dryer can dry efficiently at low temperatures using a heat pump. |
