Therefore check all laundry that will be loaded to the product.Dry the laundry with metal accessories such as zippers by turning them inside out.Close the zippers, hooks and clasps, button up the covers' buttons, tie textile belts and apron belts.

5.4 What to do for energy saving

  • Use the highest possible wringing option as you wash the laundry. Therefore you can reduce the drying period and reduce energy consumption. Sort the laundry based on their types and thickness. Dry same types of laundry together. For instance kitchen towels and table cloths dry faster than bathroom towels.
  • Follow the recommendations in the user manual for program selection.
  • During drying do not open the loading door unless necessary. If you are required to open the loading door, do not keep it open for too long.
  • Do not add wet laundry as the drying machine operates.
  • Clean the Fibre Filter before and after each drying session.
  • For condensation models, be sure to clean the condenser at least once a month or after each 30 drying sessions.
  • Make sure the filters are clean. Refer to maintenance and cleaning for details.
  • For models with flue, follow the flue connection rules specified in the guides and clean the flue.
  • During drying session, properly ventilate the environment in which the drying machine is in.
  • On models with heat pump, check the condenser at least every six months and clean it if it is dirty.

- If you are using environment friendly filter, you are not required to clean the filter after every cycle. When the environment friendly icon is lit on the screen, change the filter cloth.

5.5 Correct load capacity

Does Grundig offer replacements?

This is a repair-only guarantee. On occasion, the Manufacturer may at its sole discretion, replace your product with a new product instead of carrying out a repair. Where a replacement is offered, this would normally be an identical model but when this is not possible, a model of similar specification will be provided. The Manufacturer will cover the costs and arrange for the delivery of the new product and for the return of the old product. Any costs related to disconnecting the faulty product and installing the replacement product will not be borne by the Manufacturer unless previously agreed to in writing. The original guarantee will continue to apply to the replacement product; the new product will not come with a new guarantee.

When will the repair take place?

Our Engineers work Monday to Friday 9.00am to 5.00pm. Appointments outside these hours may be possible at the sole discretion of the Manufacturer but cannot be guaranteed. Whilst our Engineers will endeavour to minimize inconvenience and to meet requests for specific timed appointments, this cannot be guaranteed. We will not be liable for delays or if it is unable to carry out a repair because a convenient appointment cannot be arranged.

Will there be any charge for the repairs?

It is your responsibility to provide evidence to the Engineer that your product is covered by this guarantee with a proof of purchase. The Manufacturer reserves the right to charge for the reasonable cost of any service call if:

  • You cannot provide evidence that your product is covered by this guarantee.
    • Where a service call has been made and the engineer finds that there is no fault with your product.
    • That your product has not been installed or operated in accordance with the User Instructions Booklet.
    • That the fault was caused by something other than faulty materials, defective components or manufacturing defects.
  • For missed appointments.

Payment of these costs are due immediately upon the Engineer providing you with an invoice. The Manufacturer reserves the right to terminate the guarantee if you fail to pay the costs for the service call in a timely manner.
