In the event of claims or remarks, the refer-

The guarantee consists in the replacement of
any part that proves faulty for manufactur-

bled onto.
The guarantee does not apply to machines
that were damaged by negligence, miscon-
nection, incorrect installation, noncompli-
ance with the instructions for assembly and
use, nor does it apply to machines that were
tampered with by unauthorised personnel. It
does not cover machines whose serial number
was altered, deleted or removed, or to wear-
ing materials like belts, membranes or rub-
ber parts at large.
2. INTRODUCTION
The advice contained in this manual cannot
cover every possible contingency. This is
why it is important to keep in mind that
common sense and caution cannot be sup-
plied by the manufacturer along with the
dryer, but must be provided by those in
charge of its installation, maintenance and
use.
Electrical components comply with the ap-
plicable safety norms. Maintenance jobs are
reserved to qualified personnel. Improper
servicing may jeopardise user safety. To
avoid problems at a later stage, the use
original spare parts is warmly recom-
mended.
Keep this instruction booklet with the ma-
chine. If the latter is sold or transferred,
make certain this booklet is attached.
The machine was designed for drying house-
hold fabrics that can be tumble-dried (see
manufacturer labels). Uses other than speci-
fied may be dangerous. Do not use the ma-
chine with solvents (risk of fire or explosion).
Do not dry synthetics or fabrics containing
plastic parts using high-temperature.
The descriptions and sketches reported in
this manual do not bind the manufacturer,
who reserves the right to update them and/or
include any upgrading modification of parts,
components and fittings if deemed necessary
for manufacturing or commercial purposes,
at any time and with no previous notice.
3. PRESCRIPTIONS, RESTRICTIONS
AND OTHER USES
During use, cleaning and maintenance, never
poke tools or body parts into the hot or
moving components (motor, belts, pulleys,
drum, fan). The manufacturer accepts no
liability for personal injury or property dam-
age arising while using, cleaning and main-
taining of the machine.
The operation of any electric or electronic
appliance requires compliance with certain
basic rules and in this case particularly: do
not touch the machine with damp or wet
hands or feet; do not use it while barefoot, do
not expose it to atmospheric agents like rain,
salt, salinity, etc. Do not allow its operation
by children or disabled persons without proper
supervision.
Keep the machine door closed at all times to
prevent children from climbing on the appli-
ance and causing its overturning. Never step
or sit on the machine. To avoid damaging the
drum make sure that the garments that are
going to be dried contain no foreign objects
(coins, screws, nails, clips, etc.)
Do not use the machine to dry unspun or
undripped garments: maximum water con-
tent in the fabrics to be dried is 100%.
Installing the machine in premises contain-
ing other equipment like gas heaters, open
chimneys etc. may entail poisoning risks.
Dryer operation may actually cause atmos-
pheric depression and flue gas recirculation.
This may also apply to chimneys located in
adjacent rooms.
Ensure correct room ventilation during ma-
chine operation (open a window or door if
necessary). Fumes must not be conveyed into
a tube used to exhaust appliances that burn
gas or other fuel.
Do not smoke near the appliance or during
use. Do not remove or ignore safety devices.
Do not spill water directly or indirectly over
the dryer and therefore, install it far from
such possibilities.
In case of malfunction that cannot be solved
following these instructions for use, discon-
nect the appliance from the power mains
(unplug the connection cord) or either cut off
power supply using the safety circuit breaker
located ahead of the appliance and then
contact the after-sales service.
Inoperative appliances must be made use-
less immediately. First of all detach the
machine plug and then the connection cord.
Make the door look inoperative.
Any other use not explicitly mentioned in
this booklet must be considered as haz-
ardous. The manufacturer assumes no
responsibility for any damage resulting
from improper, incorrect or unreason-
able use.

4. SHIPPING, UNPACKING AND
STORING THE MACHINE
4.1. SHIPPING
Move the dryer on its own pallet or on a
similar platform; use a fork lift, either manual
or electric, provided it is adequate for han-
dling such appliances and it has the requisite
lifting capacity (see technical data). Make
sure that the appliance can surmount every
existing obstacle, like staircases, doors, etc.
Do not drag the machine by the sides or by
any other part.
For shipping purposes, use only the original
packaging, which ensures sufficient stabil-
ity during transportation.
4.2. STORING
If the appliance must be stored for a long
period of time before being put into opera-
tion, keep it inside its original package, as it
guarantees optimum protection. Make sure
ambient conditions respond to those pre-
scribed in chapter 5.2 “Allowable room
conditions for proper service”. If the ma-
chine must be out of service for a long period
after use, be sure it is materially discon-
nected from the electric power supply and
cover it with its original plastic protection
bag.
4.3. UNPACKING
1) Prior to accepting the case from the car-
rier, check the conditions of the package. If
it is showing visible damage, the machine
may have been damaged too. If so, unpack
the machine in the presence of the carrier
and sign the delivery bill under reservation.
The manufacturer assumes no liability for
any damage caused by transportation or
wrong handling or storage.
2) Unpack the appliance with the utmost
