Drying only
The recommended loads size is 3 kg for
cottons and linen, and 2 kg for synthetics.
Note! It is possible also to dry up to 4 kg of
cotton items (see the drying time table). The
water tap must be open and the drain hose
must be positioned in the sink or connected to
the drain pipe.
1. Load the laundry.
2. Turn the selector dial to «Cotton» or
«Synthetics» programme in the «Drying»
sector.
3. For the timed drying, press the button
5
until the time you want appears on the dis-
play (see the drying programmes).
Every time you press this button the drying
time increases by 5 mins.
Note! The programme time will automatically
increase by up to 2 minutes. This is quite nor-
mal.
Note! The different type of cottons (towelling,
sheets, shirts, and so on) or eventual laundry
rolling up during spinning phase may cause a
not uniform dryness. So, in the exceptional
case that at the end of the cycle the laundry
remains slightly wet, we suggest you to stretch
the items rolled up out, to redistribute evenly
the laundry in the drum and to select an
additional drying cycle of 20-30 minutes.
4. Press button

to start the programme.
After the programme has started, the time
remaining is updated every minute.
5. At the end of the programme, the buzzer
sounds. A flashing zero «
0
» will appear on
the display.
At this point, begins the anti-crease phase
which lasts for about 10 minutes. During
this time the light 9 is alight, the door can-
not be opened and the display keeps
showing three flashing zeros «
0
».
At the end of this phase, the pilot light 9
goes off and the door can be opened.
6. Turn the selector dial to the «O» position to
switch the machine off. Remove the laun-
dry.
