Important safety information
This section includes safety information
that will help protection from risks of
personal injuries or materialistic damages.
Failure to follow these instructions
shall cause any warranty and reliability
commitment to become void.
General safety
• Never place the machine on a carpet-
covered floor, otherwise, lack of airflow
beneath the machine may cause
electrical parts to overheat. This will
cause problems with your machine.
• If the power cable or mains plug is
damaged, you must call Authorised
Service Agent for repair.
• The product should not be plugged
in during installation, maintenance
and repair works. Such works should
always be made by the technical
service. Manufacturer shall not be held
responsible for damages arising from
processes carried out by unauthorised
persons.
• Connect the product to a grounded
outlet protected by a fuse of suitable
capacity as stated in the technical
specifications table.
• Operate your product at temperatures
b5°C and +35°C.
• Do not use electrical devices in the
product.
• Do not connect the air exit of the
product to the chimney holes which
are used for the exhaust fumes of the
devices operating with gas or other
types of fuel.
• You must provide enough ventilation
in order to prevent gases exiting from
devices operating with other types of
fuels including the naked flame from
accumulating in the room due to the
back fire effect.
• Always clean the lint filter before or after
each loading.
• Never operate your dryer without the
lint filter installed.
• Do not allow fibre, dust and dirt
accumulation around the exhaust exit
and at adjacent areas.
• Power cable plug must be within easy
reach after installation.
• Do not use extension cords, multi-plugs
or adaptors to connect the dryer to
power supply in order to decrease the
risk of electric shock.
• Do not make any changes on the plug
supplied with the product. If it is not
compatible with the socket, have a
qualified electrician change the socket
with a suitable one.
• Items cleaned or washed with gasoil/
fuel oil, dry-laundry solvents and other
combustible or explosive materials as
well as the items that are contaminated
or spotted with such materials should
not be dried in the product since they
emit flammable or explosive vapor.
• Do not dry items cleaned with industrial
chemicals in the dryer.
• Do not dry unwashed items in the dryer.
• Items soiled with cooking oils,
acetone, alcohol, fuel oil, kerosene,
stain remover, turpentine, paraffin and
paraffin removers must be washed
in hot water with plenty of detergent
before being dried in the dryer.
• Garments or pillows bolstered with
rubber foam (latex foam), shower
bonnets, water resistant textiles,
materials with rubber reinforcement and
rubber foam pads should not be dried
in the dryer.
• Do not use fabric softeners and
anti-static products unless they are
recommended by the manufacturers of
the fabric softener or the product.
• Oil-affected items can ignite
spontaneously, especially when
exposed to heat sources such as in
a tumble dryer. The items become
warm, causing an oxidation reaction
in the oil. Oxidation creates heat. If the
heat cannot escape, the items can
become hot enough to catch fire. Piling,
stacking or storing oil-affected items
can prevent heat from escaping and so
create a fire hazard.
• If it is unavoidable that fabrics that
contain vegetable or cooking oil or
have been contaminated by hair care
products be placed in a tumble dryer
they should first be washed in hot water
with extra detergent - this will reduce,
but not eliminate, the hazard.
