Do not machine dry.
Always observe the safety instructions on page 13!
Do not tumble-dry the following fabrics for example:
– Airtight fabrics (e.g. rubber-coated fabrics).
– Delicate materials (silk, curtains made from synthetic material)
a
they may crease.
– Oil-stained laundry.
Drying tips
– To ensure a consistent result, sort the laundry by fabric type and drying programme.
– Always dry very small fabrics (e.g. baby socks) together with
large items of laundry (e.g. hand towels).
– Close zips, hooks and eyes, and do up any buttons.
Tie belts, apron strings etc. together.
– Do not overdry easy-care laundry
a
risk of creasing
Allow laundry to finish drying in the air.
– Do not dry woollens in the dryer. They may, however, be refreshed
a

– Do not iron laundry immediately after drying, fold items up and leave for a while
a
the remaining moisture will then be distributed evenly.
– The drying result depends on the type of water used during washing.

.
– Knitted fabrics (e.g. T-shirts, jerseys) often shrink slightly the first time they are tumble-dried.
a
Do not select the
trocken extra/Extra sec
(Very Dry) programme.
– Starched laundry is not always suitable for dryers
a
starch leaves behind a coating that
adversely affects the drying operation.
– When washing laundry that is to be tumble-dried afterwards, use the correct amount of fabric
softener according to the manufacturer's instructions.
– Use the Zeitprogramm (Timed programme) for small loads
a
this improves the drying result.
Environmental protection / Energy-saving tips
– Before drying, spin the laundry thoroughly in the washing machine
a
the higher the spin
speed, the shorter the drying time will be, thus consuming less energy. Also spin easy-care
laundry.
– Use the maximum recommended capacity, but do not exceed it
a
“Programme overview”
a

.
– Ensure the room is well ventilated during drying
.
– Do not cover or seal the air inlet.

Important Information
Your dryer is designed to be particularly energy-saving and its technical features include
a refrigeration circuit that uses energy efficiently, in a similar way to a refrigerator.
The dryer's heat exchanger is cleaned automatically during drying.
The fluff filters and filter in the condensate
container must be cleaned regularly.
Never operate the dryer without the fluff filters and without filter in condensate container.
ʑ
Fluff filter
During drying, fluff and hairs from the laundry are trapped in the fluff filter. A blocked fluff filter
may impair the heat exchange process.
The fluff filter should therefore be cleaned after every drying cycle.
Rinse the filter regularly under running water
a
Page 4
.
ʑ
Filter in the condensate container
The filter in the condensate
container cleans the condensation. This condensation is required
for the automatic cleaning process. The filter must be cleaned regularly under running water.
Empty the condensate
container before cleaning the filter
a
Page 9
.
ʑ
Fabrics
Do not dry any fabrics that have come into contact with solvents, oil, wax, grease or paint:
e.g. hair styling products, nail varnish remover, stain remover, cleaning solvent. etc.
Empty all pockets.
Do not dry airtight fabrics.
Avoid drying fabrics that produce a lot of fluff.
Woollens should be refreshed only using the woollens programme.
4
Clean fluff filters reduce energy consumption.
Observe the safety instructions on page 13.
Read these instructions and the separate
Energy-saving mode
instructions before operating the dryer.
