Installation

WARNING:

The appliance must not be connected to the mains during installing. Otherwise there is danger to life or electric shock hazard!

Appliance location

• The site should be located near a properly grounded power socket.
• Place the appliance so that all controls are easily to reach and the appliance door can open without being impeded.
• Good ventilation around the appliance is required, in order to dissipate the heat properly. Sufficient clearance must be created for this purpose.
• Make sure that the floor, on which the appliance is installed, is even, heat-resistant and clean.
• Take care of a solid and horizontal position of the appliance. If the appliance is not horizontally leveled, adjust the feet accordingly.

- Avoid the installation:

• near heaters, next to a stove, direct sunlight or any other heat sources;
• at locations with high humidity (e.g. outdoors), as metal parts would be susceptible to corrosion under such circumstances;
• in rooms where the temperature drops below 5^ C or above 35^ C. Do not expose the appliance any weather.
• near volatile or flammable materials (e.g. gas, fuel, alcohol, paint, etc.).

Adjusting the feet

CAUTION:

The feet must never be removed. Do not restrict the floor clearance through carpets, strips of wood or similar. Danger of heat accumulation!

• Turn the feet to the right to let down the appliance; turn to the left to lift it up. The feet must have solid ground contact.
• Check with a spirit level if the appliance is leveled horizontally. If the appliance is not in balance, the feet must be adjusted again.

Water discharge

It's not necessary to discharge the condensed water to the tank, it can be drained out directly.

Pull out already fitted pipe..

.. and install the drain-pipe which is scope of delivery.

Electrical connection

WARNING:

• The installation to the mains supply must conform to the local standards and regulations.
• Improper connection may cause to an electric shock!
• Do not use multiple sockets or extension cords.

• The accessibility of the power plug must always be ensured in order to disconnect the appliance from the power supply in case of an emergency.

• Ensure that your mains power corresponds with the specifications of the appliance. The specifications are printed on the rating label.

• Connect the mains cable to a properly installed and earthed wall outlet.
• If the plug after installation is not accessible, a corresponding disconnect device must be available to meet the relevant safety regulations.

Startup / Operation

Prior using for the first time

• Remove accessories and other materials from the appliance drum.

- Softeners or similar products should be used as specified in the softener instructions.

- Remove all objects from pockets, such as matches and lighters.

- Close zips, buttons, or hooks before drying. Tie loose straps or loops together.

Adding laundry

• Shake out the washed fabrics and sort them according to the required drying setting, fibre, and fabric type, size, as well as remaining moisture after spinning. This will make the drying very consistent.
• Do not overload the appliance. Each load should correspond to the rated capacity of the appliance.
• Ensure that no items of washing are trapped in the door.

\* □ Standard drying program: Cotton standard

In the case of a full load or partial load, this drying program is used to determine the figures on the energy label. The program is suitable for drying normal wet cotton fabrics and is the most efficient program with regard to energy consumption for cotton.

Automatic drying programs

The appliance detects the moisture in the load and automatically adjusts the optimum drying time. The electronic control ensures the best drying results

even at less loading of the dryer. It is activated in all programs, except in the time controlled program [60 MIN].

Capacity

Do not overload the appliance, otherwise the fabrics will become stretched and drying will be impaired.

Refer to the information in the "Program table".

Starting the program

• Connect the appliance to the power supply.
• Put the washing into the drum.

End of program

At the end of the drying cycle will sound a series of signals; the control panel goes into standby mode and the appliance starts an automatic anti-crease cycle.

Automatic anti-crease cycle

If you do not remove the clothes from the appliance after the drying process has finished, the appliance will start the automatic anti-crease cycle of approx. 30 minutes (the anti-crease control lamp is flashing). The appliance continues rotating the drum in intervals in order to prevent textiles from creasing. At the end of that cycle the appliance will stop operating completely. During the process you can remove the washing at any time.
