ENGLISH 4311. HINTS AND TIPS

11.1 Preparing the laundry

Loading the drum up to the maximum capacity indicated for the respective programmes will contribute to the energy saving. 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 fasteners of duvet covers.

• Do not dry ties or ribbons loose (e.g. apron ribbons). Tie them before you start a programme.

• 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 programme suitable for the type of laundry.

• Do not put light and dark colours together.

• Use suitable programme for cottons, jersey and knitwear to reduce shrinkage.

• Do not exceed the maximum load stated in the programmes 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. Table title 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.

12. CARE AND CLEANING

12.1 Periodic cleaning schedule

Periodic cleaning helps to extend the life of your appliance. If the appliance is not used for a long time unplug the appliance. Indicative periodic cleaning schedule: Cleaning the filter When the indicator flashes 44 ENGLISH.Empty the water containerWhen the indicator flashesClean the Heat ExchangerWhen the indicator flashesClean the humidity sensor At least 3 or 4 times a yearClean drum Every two monthsClean the control panel and housing Every two monthsClean the airflow slots Every two monthsTable title. The following paragraphs explain how you should clean each part.

12.2 Removing the foreign items

Make sure that the pockets are empty and all loose elements are tied up before running the drying cycle. Refer to the "Preparing the laundry" section. Remove any foreign items that you may find in the drum after the drying cycle (e.g. metal clips, buttons, coins, etc).

12.3 Cleaning the filter

At the end of each cycle the filter indicator comes on and you must clean the filter. The filter collects the lint during the drying cycle. To achieve the best drying performance clean the filter regularly. The clogged filter causes the longer drying cycle and as a consequence the energy consumption increase. Clean the filter by hand. Use a vacuum cleaner if necessary. CAUTION! When cleaning the filters, the lint should be thrown in the garbage bin and not washed through the drain in order to avoid spreading microplastics in the used water system.

1. Open the door. Pull the filter up.

2. Push the hook to open the filter.

3. Gather lint with hand from both internal

parts of the filter. Throw the lint in the dustbin.

4. If necessary, clean the filter with a

vacuum cleaner. Close the filter.
