INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE

▼ Installation must be carried out by qualifi ed personnel in line with the instructions supplied by the manufacturer. Incorrect installation may result in damage and/or injury. ▼ Do not install the drier in rooms subject to freezing temperatures. Freezing temperatures could damage the electronics. ▼ Position the drier in a well-ventilated room. ▼ Do not cover the ventilation hole on the back (fi g. 2) and do not place the drier on thick carpet. ▼ Clean the inside of the drying drum using a damp cloth to remove any dust deposits.

OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES The retailer can provide an accessory to enable the drier to be mounted on top of a front - loading washing machine, thus saving space. The installer will inform you of the appliance model for which this option is possible.16 SM2164

INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE

The condensation can be collected in the reservoir (fi g. 10) or, alternatively, the hose can be connected directly to the drainage system. In this case, the collected water is pumped out. To connect the condensation hose directly to the drainage system, proceed as follows: ▼ Before starting any operations, unplug the appliance from the mains socket. ▼ Extract the hose on the back of the appliance by pulling it from its housing, (fi g. 5/6) and insert it in the waste water pipe. ▼ Make sure that the voltage indicated on the identifi cation plate attached to the back of the appliance corresponds to that of the mains supply. ▼ All cut-outs, electric wiring and mains sockets must have a rating such that enables them to support the maximum load indicated on the identifi cation plate. ▼ Once the appliance has been installed, it must be connected to the mains supply through a single-pole switch. ▼ The mains supply to which the appliance is connected must be fi tted with an earthing system. If this is not the case, the manufacturer will not be held liable for any incidents that may occur (fi g. 4). ▼ If the power supply cable is damaged in any way, contact the appropriate specialised customer technical service centre. ▼ The drier must not be connected to the mains supply using indirect methods such as extension leads or multiple adapters. ▼ Position the appliance so that the power supply cable is easily accessible for disconnection when the need arises. Important: On completion of the drying cycle, disconnect the appliance from the mains supply to prevent young children from operating the drier.

Adjustable feet. Place the drier upright so that it rests fi rmly on all four feet. Level the drier by adjusting the feet as follows: ▼ Lift the drier slightly. ▼ Adjust the feet to the correct height (fi g. 3). ▼ Lower the drier. NB. A badly levelled appliance may cause damage to the bearings and lead to their premature wear. This drier does not need to be anchored to the fl oor.

INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE

OPENING THE DOOR AND CHANGING THE OPENING DIRECTION ▼ Press the right side of the door (fi g. 7) to open it. If the door has been reversed, press the left side. ▼ The direction of the drum door opening can be modifi ed according to needs (fi g. 8). - N.B.: This operation must only be carried out by a qualifi ed technician. Contact the customer service centre. In the case of doubt as to the type of fabric, read the label on the item itself. Almost all items that can be machine dried have this information specifi ed on the label. To avoid static electricity being generated in the items, add a conditioner to the rinse cycle of the washing machine. Remove synthetic materials from the drum immediately to prevent them from creasing.

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. Using a softener in the wash cycle will improve drying and save time. 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 programme. ▼ Delicate washing, acrylics for example, must always be dried at low temperature. General advice: Jersey often shrinks, not only in the wash but also during drying. Pure linen. ▼ Only dry garments with specific drying instructions on label, otherwise, the fabric could roughen. ▼ In order to avoid staining, never dry dark coloured washing together with light coloured washing.18 SM2164

DESCRIPTION OF THE CONTROL PANEL. P. Programmer knob. Used to select the required programmes according to the types of fabrics and their specifi c needs. If, for any reason, you want to change the programme or add more washing to the load during the drying cycle, simply place the programmer knob in the "STOP" position. Then re-position the knob on the required program and press the "START" button. NB. Warning!! Only use this function if strictly necessary and then only if the programme to reset has been running for less than 3 minutes. S. Start Button. Press this button to start the programmed drying cycle.

S. Start Led. Off indicates the "STOP" position. On fi xed indicates the cycle is running. Fast fl ashing indicates the set programme is ready to start. Slow fl ashing indicates the end of the drying programme.

restart the cycle after the condensation water reservoir has been emptied (fi g. 11)

V. Reservoir full alarm Led. A flashing light

indicates that the reservoir is full and needs to be emptied (the drying cycle stops). After the container has been replaced, a fi xed light indicates that the function is restarting. Light off indicates that the alarm has been reset (the cycle restarts). A. Anti-crease button. Activates a function that, at the end of the drying cycle, rotates the drum and the washing loaded in it in one direction then in the other for a further sixty minutes to reduce creasing. Each rotation is signalled by a short beep.

A. Anti-crease Led. Off indicates that the function has been disabled. A fi xed light indicates that the anti-crease function is active. A fl ashing light indicates that the function is running. When the drying cycle is over, the start Led will also light up and fl ash slowly. C. Beep silencer button. Disables the beep function, which would otherwise be permanently enabled.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

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 save energy.

▼ Remove the fi lter by pulling upwards and then clean it (fi g. 13). ▼ It is also possible to remove the two fl uff fi lters from the door opening and clean them (fi g. 14). NB. The presence of fl uff in the fi lter is not the result of the drying procedure. The fl uff comes from the fi bres of fabrics damaged or unthreaded during the wash and, above all, as a result of wear. The fi lters can be cleaned by simply placing them under hot running water. ▼ The condenser should be cleaned two or three times a year (fi g. 15/18). ▼ Open the door, rotate the lever to the vertical position and remove the cover (fi g. 15). If the condensation drain hose is not connected directly to the drainage system, the condensation is collected in the reservoir (fi g. 11). The reservoir must be emptied after each drying cycle. To empty the reservoir, proceed as follows: ▼ Remove the reservoir from the drier (Fig. 11). ▼ Empty the reservoir. The drain hole is located on the top right (fi g. 12). ▼ After emptying, replace the container in its housing making sure it is properly seated. ▼ If the reservoir is not emptied or it fi lls up excessively during a drying cycle, the condensation reservoir warning light will fl ash and the drier will stop. If this happens, proceed as described above. ▼ To restart the programme, press the reservoir alarm reset button (V) (fi g. 9).
