Important information...
Your dryer is designed to be particularly energy efficient. Its technical features include
a refrigeration circuit, which 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 filters
During drying, fluff and hair from the laundry is trapped by the fluff filter. A blocked fluff filter
may impair the heat exchange process.
The fluff filters must therefore be cleaned after every drying cycle.
Rinse regularly under running water
a
Page 4 .
When cleaning the fluff filter, make sure that no foreign material (down, filling material) enters
the air duct opening. If necessary, clean the drum beforehand with a vacuum cleaner.
If foreign material should still enter the air duct
a
call the after-sales service.
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 should be cleaned regularly under running
water. Empty the condensate container before cleaning the filter

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 non-breathable fabrics.
Avoid drying laundry items that produce a lot of fluff.
Woollens should be refreshed or dried using the woollens programme only.

cotton laundry and is most efficient in terms of its combined energy consumption for drying wet
cotton laundry.

Normal noises
During drying, the compressor and the pump generate some noise which is entirely normal.
The compressor in the dryer may
occasionally generate a humming noise.
The volume and pitch of this may vary
depending on the selected
programmes and the progress of the
drying.
The compressor in the dryer is ventilated
from time to time, which creates a whirring
sound.
The automatic cleaning process causes
a clicking noise.
The process of pumping the condensation
into the condensate container generates
pumping noises.

after-sales service.
We will always find an appropriate solution and will avoid unnecessary visits by engineers.
Trust the expertise of the manufacturer and rest assured that the repair will be carried out
by trained service technicians using original spare parts.
The contact details of your local

What to do if ...
ʠ
Laundry is not dried correctly or
is still too damp. After the end of the programme, warm laundry feels
damper than it actually is. Spread the laundry out and
allow the heat to disperse.
Finely adjust the dryness level – this extends the drying
time but does not increase the temperature. Your laundry
will become drier.
Select a programme with a longer drying time or increase
the drying level. This does not increase the temperature.
Select a time programme for extended drying of laundry
that is still damp.
If you have exceeded the maximum load for the
programme, the laundry may not be dried correctly.
Clean the moisture sensor in the drum. A fine layer of
limescale may adversely affect the performance of the
sensors and your washing will not dry properly.
Drying has been interrupted as a result of a power cut,
because the condensation container is full or because the
maximum drying time has been exceeded.
