Care and cleaning
Dryer housing, control panel
– Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth.
– Do not clean with a water jet.
– Remove detergent and cleaning agent residue immediately.
– During drying, water may occasionally accumulate between the window and the seal.
This does not affect the proper operation of your dryer.
Heat exchanger
The heat exchanger requires cleaning once a month,
however this varies depending on how frequently the dryer is used.
Allow the dryer to cool down and place an absorbent cloth under the maintenance flap.
Residual water may escape.
1.
Unlock the maintenance flap and open completely.
2.
Turn both locking levers towards each another.
3.
Pull out the cap.
4.
Remove the heat exchanger.
Take care not to damage the heat exchanger.
When cleaning, use water only. Do not use hard or sharp-edged objects.
5.
Rinse the heat exchanger and the cap on all sides with a jet of water to
completely remove all of the fluff.
6.
Remove any fluff from the seals on the dryer and heat exchanger.
7.
Allow to drip dry fully.
8.
First insert the heat exchanger, then the cap.
9.
Turn back both locking levers and close the
maintenance flap until it locks closed.
Moisture sensors
The dryer is equipped with stainless steel moisture sensors.
Moisture sensors measure the moisture level of the laundry.
After sustained, repeated operation, a fine layer of limescale
may form on the moisture sensors.
1.
Open the door.
2.
Clean the moisture sensors with a damp sponge which has a rough
surface.
Do not use steel wool or abrasive agents!
Only when switched off!

Installation
– Scope of delivery: dryer, operating and installation instructions, basket for woollens
(depending on the model)
.
– Check the dryer for transport damage.
– The dryer is very heavy. Do not attempt to lift it on your own.
– Be careful to avoid sharp edges.
– Do not lift the dryer by protruding parts (e.g. the door) - risk of breakage.
– Do not set up in a room that is susceptible to frost. Freezing water may cause damage.
– If in doubt, have the appliance connected by a specialist.
Setting up the dryer
– The mains plug must always be accessible.
– Ensure that the appliance is placed on a clean, level
and firm surface.
–
Do not obstruct the air inlet on the dryer.
– Keep the area around the dryer clean.
–
Level the dryer using the threaded feet
and a spirit level.
Never remove the threaded feet
!
For mains connection,
see Safety instructions
a
page 13.
– Connect to an AC earthed socket. If in doubt have the socket checked by a specialist.
– The mains voltage and the voltage shown on the rating plate (
a
page 10
) must be the
same.
– The connected load and necessary fuse protection are specified on the rating plate.
Converting the installed load
Note the fuse protection of the socket (
10/16 Amps.).

ʠ
Laundry is not dried correctly or is
still too damp.
After the end of the programme, warm laundry feels
damper than it actually is. Spread the laundry out and
allow the heat to disperse.
Finely adjust the dryness level – this extends the drying
time but does not increase the temperature. Your laundry
will become drier.
Select a programme with a longer drying time or increase
the drying level. This does not increase the temperature.
Select a time programme for extended drying of laundry
that is still damp.
If you have exceeded the maximum load for the
programme, the laundry may not be dried correctly.
Clean the moisture sensor in the drum. A fine layer of
limescale may adversely affect the performance of the
sensors and your washing will not dry properly.
Drying has been interrupted as a result of a power cut,
because the condensate container is full or because the
maximum drying time has been exceeded.
