FIRST TIME USE

Make sure that the water tank is correctly inserted. Make sure that the drain hose on the back of the dyrer is properly fixed, either to the dryers's water tank or to the domestic sewage system.

The dryer should be installed in environment in a room temperature range of 20^ to 23^ C for optimum performance. But will function if the room is between 14 and 30^ C. Before you use your dryer ensure that it has been in a upright position for at least 6 hours.

Should you wish to change the opening side of the door, please contact our After-sales Service. (See phone number in the warranty booklet).

DAILY USE

Doing this will keep your machine working at its BEST!

Remember to empty your water tank after each drying cycle. Remember to clean your filters after each drying cycle. (Refer to section Care & Maintenance).

1. Open the door and load garments. Always refer to instructions on clothing labels and the max loads indicated in the programme section. Empty pockets. Make sure garments do not get caught between the door and/or the door filter.
2. Close the door.
3. Press the button On/Off.
4. Select the programme according to the laundry type.
5. Select the options, if necessary.
6. To start the cycle, press the Start/Pause button.
7. At the end of the drying cycle, a buzzer will beep. An indicator on the control panel signals the end of the cycle. Pull the load out immediately to prevent the formation of creases on laundry.
8. Turn the machine off by pressing the button On/Off, open the door and pull clothing out. If the machine is not switched off manually, after about a quarter of an hour from the cycle end, the appliance turns off automatically to save energy. If this last stage is not carried out immediately, some machines and/or some programmes/options are equipped with Crease Care system. For some hours, after the end of drying, the drum rotates at regular intervals to prevent the formation of creases. In case of power failure, it is necessary to press the button Start/Pause to restart the cycle.

OPENING OF THE DOOR DURING THE CYCLE

During operation, it is possible to open the door. After having closed it, press the button Start/Pause again to restart the dryer.

CARE AND MANTENANCE

Unplug the dryer during the cleaning and maintenance procedures.

Emptying the water tank after each cycle (see Fig. A).

Pull the container out of the dryer and and empty it into a sink or other suitable drain, then place it back. Do not use the dryer without having inserted the container back in place.

Cleaning the door filter after each cycle (see Fig. B).

Pull the filter out and clean it by removing the lint from the filter surface under running water or using a vacuum cleaner. Do not use the dryer without having reinserted the filter in place.

Remove the door filter as described below:

1. Open the door and pull upwards.

2. Open the filter and

remove lint from all its parts. Replace it correctly.

Ensure it is completely inserted flush with the dryer seal.

Cleaning the bottom filter when the relevant indicator turns on (see Fig. C).

Pull the filter out and remove the lint from its surface by washing it under runing water or by using a vacuum cleaner.

However, it is advisable to clean this filter after each cycle to optimise drying performance. Do not use the dryer without having inserted the filter in place first.

Remove the bottom filter as described below:

1. Open the lower door.
2. Take the handle and pull the lower filter out.
3. Open the rear side of the filter and remove the lint from the inner surface of the mesh.
4. Clean the bottom filter chamber avoiding the direct contact with the leaves.
5. Close the rear side of the lower filter and place it back by checking it is perfectly integrated in place.
6. Lower the filter handle and close the bottom door.
7. Make sure the air intake is free.

The filters are essential parts for drying. They are intended to collect the lint formed during drying process. In case of clogged filters, the air flow inside the dryer would be seriously affected: the drying times would be longer, the energy consumption would increase and the dryer could be damaged. If these procedures are not carried out properly, the dryer may not start.

TRANSPORT AND HANDLING

Never lift the dryer by holding it at the worktop.

1. Unplug the dryer.
2. Make sure that door and water tank are properly closed.
3. If the drain hose is connected to your sewage system, fix the drain hose on the rear of the dryer again (see Installation Guide).
