- Use this appliance only as described in this user manual.
- This appliance is for indoor use only.
- Any other use is deemed improper and may result in damage to property or even personal injury.
- The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage caused by improper use.
Safety Instructions
- The appliance corresponds to protection class I and may only be connected to a plug with a protective conductor that has been installed properly. When connecting the appliance to the mains, make sure that the mains voltage is correct. You can find more information about this on the rating plate.
⚠ Warning!
Electric shock hazard
- Before connecting the tumble dryer, ensure that the connection parameter on the rating plate (fuse rating, voltage and frequency) match the mains electricity supply. If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
- The electrical safety of this tumble dryer can only be guaranteed when correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety requirement is met. If in any doubt, please have the household wiring system tested by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an inadequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).
- Do not pull the power cord forcefully. Please grasp the mains plug instead
- Do not plug/draw the mains plug with wet hands.
- Do not bend, clamp or damage the power cord and the power plug.
-
If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
-
Warning: The appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by a utility.
- Do not connect the appliance to the mains electricity supply by an extension lead, multi-socket adapter or similar.
- The accessibility of the plug must always be ensured, in order to disconnect the tumble dryer from the mains.
- If the appliance appear high temperature abnormally, please draw the mail plug immediately.
Injury danger
- The appliance must not be installed behind a lockable door, a sliding door or a door with a hinge on the opposite side to that of the tumble dryer, in such a way that a full opening of the tumble dryer door is restricted.
- Do not disassemble or install the dryer without any instruction or supervision.
- Do not stack this dryer on washing machine without stacking kits. (If you want to stack this dryer on a washing machine, please purchase the independent parts. Installation shall be done by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons to avoid any hazards.)
- Do not lean on the opened door of the dryer.
- Condensed water is not drinking water. It can cause health problems in both people and animals if consumed.
Damage danger
- Do not put more load than rated in this user manual. See the related chapter in the user manual.
- Do not operate the dryer without the door filter.
- Do not dry the clothes before being spun.
- Do not expose the dryer directly under the sun.
- Do not install the dryer in humid and drenching environment.
- While cleaning and maintenance, please do remember to pull out the power plug and do not directly spray the dryer with water.
- The appliance should not be overturned during normal use or maintenance.

CAUTION: RISK OF FIRE!
Explosion & Fire danger
- Please do not dry the clothes with any flammable substances such as kerosene or alcohol. Otherwise, there may be explosion.
- The appliance contains an environmentally friendly but flammable R290 refrigerant. Keep away from open flame and other sources of ignition.
- The tumble dryer is not to be used if industrial chemicals have been used for cleaning.
- Do not dry unwashed items in the tumble dryer.
-
Items that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers should be washed in hot water with an extra amount of detergent before being dried in the tumble dryer.
-
Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubber backed articles and clothes or pillows fitted with foam rubber pads should not be dried in the tumble dryer.
- Fabric softeners, or similar products, should be used as specified by the fabric softener instructions.
- Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat sources such as in a tumble dryer. The items become warm, causing an oxidation reaction in the oil. Oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot escape, the items can become hot enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing oil-affected items can prevent heat from escaping and so create a fire hazard.
- Remove all objects from pockets such as lighters and matches.
- If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or cooking oil or have been contaminated by hair care products be placed in a tumble dryer they should first be washed in hot water with extra detergent. This will reduce, but not eliminate the hazard.
- WARNING: Never stop a tumble dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.
- Openings must not be obstructed.
- The lint trap has to be cleaned frequently.
- Lint must not to be allowed to accumulate around the tumble dryer.
Safety with children
- This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be done by children without supervision.
- Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
-
Children of less than 3 years should be kept away unless continuously supervised.
• Always close the door after use. In this way you will avoid the danger of: -
Children climbing onto or into the dryer or hiding things in it.
-
Pets or other small animals climbing into it.

Remarks:
1 Energy consumption per year, based on 160 drying cycles of the standard cotton programme at full and partial load, and the consumption of the low-power modes. Actual energy consumption per cycle will depend on how the appliance is used. The programme 'Cotton Standard' used at full and partial load is the standard drying programme to which the information in the label and the fiche relates. This programme is suitable for drying normal wet cotton laundry and it is the most efficient programme in terms of energy consumption for cotton.
