 This appliance has been designed and built 

according to international safety standards. 

These warnings are given for safety reasons 

and must be followed carefully.

General safety

• 

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.

• This tumble dryer has been designed for 

home, and not professional, use.

• Do not touch the appliance while barefoot 

or with wet hands or feet.

• Unplug the machine by pulling on the plug, 

not the cord.

• After using the dryer, turn it off and unplug 

it. Keep the door closed to make sure that 

children do not use it as a toy.

•Children should be supervised to ensure 

that they do not play with the dryer.

• Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be 

made by children without supervision.

•Children of less than 3 years should be 

kept away from the appliance unless 
continuously supervised.

• The appliance must be installed correctly 

and have proper ventilation. The air intake 

at the front of the dryer should never  be 

obstructed 

(see Installation).

• Never use the dryer on carpeting where the 

pile height would prevent air from entering 

the dryer from the base.

• Check to see if the dryer is empty before 

loading it.

• 

The back of the dryer could become 

very hot. Never touch it while in use.

• Do not use the dryer unless the filter, 

watercontainer and condenser are securely 

in place (see Maintenance).

• Do not overload the dryer (see Laundry for 

maximum loads).

• Do not load items that are dripping wet.
• Carefully check all instructions on clothing 

labels (see Laundry).

• Do not tumble dry large, very bulky items.
• Do not tumble dry acrylic fibres at high 

temperatures.

• Do not turn off the dryer when there are 

still warm items inside.

• Clean the filter after each use (see 

Maintenance).

• Empty the water container after each use 

(see Maintenance).

�• Clean the condenser unit at regular intervals 

(see Maintenance).

�• Do not allow lint to collect around the 

dryer.

• Never climb on top of the dryer. It could 

result in damage.

• Always follow electrical standards and 

requirements (see Installation).

• Always buy original spare parts and 

accessories (see Service).

To minimise the risk of fire 

in your tumble dryer, the 

following should be observed:

• Tumble dry items only if they have been 

washed with detergent and water, rinsed 

and been through the spin cycle. It is a fire 

hazard to dry items that HAVE NOT been 

washed with water.

�• Do not dry garments that have been 

treated with chemical products.

• Do not tumble dry items that have 

been spotted or soaked with vegetable 

or cooking oils, this constitutes a fire 

hazard. Oil-affected items can ignite 

spontaneously,especially when exposed 

to heat sources such as a tumble dryer. 

The items become warm, causing 

an oxidisation reaction with the oil, 

Oxidisation creates heat. If the heat 

cannot escape, items can become hot 

enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or 

storing oil-effected items can prevent 

heat from escaping and so create a fire 

hazard.If it is unavoidable that fabrics 

containing vegetable or cooking oil or 

those that have been contaminated with 

hair care products be placed in a tumble 

dryer they should first be washed with 

extra detergent - this will reduce, but not 

eliminate the hazard. They should not 

be removed from the dryer and piled or 

stacked while hot.

• Do not tumble dry items that have 

previously been cleaned in or washed 

in, soaked in or soiled with petrol/

gasoline, dry cleaning solvents or other 

flammable or explosive substances. Highly 

flammable substances commonly used in 

domestic environments including cooking 

oil, acetone, denatured alcohol, kerosene, 

spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax 

removers. Ensure these items have been 

washed in hot water with an extra amount 

of detergent before being dried in the 

tumble dryer.

�• Do not tumble dry items containing foam 

rubber (also known as latex foam), or 

similarly textured rubber like materials. 

Foam rubber materials can, when heated, 

produce fire by spontaneous combustion.

�• Fabric softener or similar products should 

not be used in a tumble dryer to eliminate 

the effects of static electricity unless the 

practice is specifically recommended by the 

manufacturer of the fabric softener product.

• Do not tumble dry undergarments that 

contain metal reinforcements eg. bras 

with metal reinforcing wires. Damage to 

the tumble dryer can result if the metal 

reinforcements come loose during drying.

�• Do not tumble dry rubber, plastic articles 

such as shower caps or babies waterproof 

covers, polythene or paper.

• Do not tumble dry rubber backed articles, 

clothes fitted with foam rubber pads, 

pillows, galoshes and rubber coated tennis 

shoes.

• Remove all objects from pockets such as 

lighters and matches.

!

 

WARNING: 

Never stop the dryer before 

the end of the drying cycle unless all 

items are quickly removed and spread 

out so that the heat is dissipated.

Save energy and respect the 

environment

• Wring out all items to eliminate excess water 

before tumble drying (if you use a washing 

machine first, select  a high spin cycle). Doing 

this will save time and energy during drying.

• Always dry full loads - you save energy: single 

items or small loads take longer to dry.

• Clean the filter after each use to contain energy 

consumption costs 

(see Maintenance)
