Drying Time 

Drying time depends on the number of 
revolutions when spinning the laundry in the 
washing machine, on quantity and type of fabric 
to be dried and on the requested degree of 
drying.  
For easier selection of drying time, refer to the 
table on the front panel of the dryer.

Drying Procedure 

x

  Fill the drum with laundry. 

x

 Close the door and connect the appliance to 

power supply. 

x

  Choose the correct drying temperature. 

x

 Select the drying time. The drier is switched on 

and starts operating. 

Economic use of the dryer 

x

 Time and energy will be saved with your dryer, 

if the following is considered: 

x

 spin the laundry as much as possible – the 

higher the number of spin revolutions the 
shorter will be drying time and the energy 
consumption lower; 

x

 by setting the adequate drying temperature,  

over-drying of laundry can be avoided and 
consequently difficult ironing; 

x

 always load the dryer maximally as this is the 

most economical. At the same time you can dry 
the laundry for “dry, ready to be stored” and “ 
dry for ironing” by taking the latter out when it is 
still adequately moist  for ironing; 

x

 by regular cleaning of the filter an optimum 

drying time with minimum energy consumption 
can be ensured. 

x

 room in which your dryer is situated should be 

adequately vented with no higher temperature 
than 25

o

C (should be considered with 

condenser-type dryer only); 

x

  Venting fissures and the opening on the front or 

on the rear side of the dryer must be free. After 
cleaning, close the door of the dryer so that the 
drum light will turn off. (models with illuminated 
drum). 

x

 dryer consumption when used at a lower 

electric power rate can  additional save the 
energy.

approximate values for 5 kg of test laundry at 
different washing machine spin stages.

Measured quantities may differ from the indicated 
because of differences in the type and quantity of 
laundry, spinning, voltage supply oscillation, as 
well as the temperature and humidity of the room.

dryer

x

  Open the dryer door. 

x

 Clean the filter. If the filter is not cleaned 

regularly, the air circulation is obstructed, the 
drying time is longer, and it may also cause 
overheating failure of the appliance. 

x

  Reinsert the filter. 

x

  Extract the laundry. 

x

  Close the door. 

x

  Empty the condensation receptacle. 

x

  Occasionally clean the air cooler. 

x

  Disconnect the mains supply.
