Installation
– Scope of delivery: dryer, installation and instruction manual, basket for woollens
(depending on the model).
– Check dryer for transport damage.
– The dryer is very heavy. Do not lift without assistance.
– Be careful to avoid sharp edges.
– Do not install in a room which is susceptible to frost. Water may cause damage once it
starts to freeze.
– If in doubt, have the appliance connected by a specialist.
– Do not lift the dryer by any of the protruding parts (e.g. the door) as they may break off.
Setting up the dryer
– The appliance plug must always be accessible.
– Ensure that the appliance is installed on a clean,
level and firm surface.
– Do not obstruct the air inlet on the front of the
dryer.
– Keep the area around the dryer clean.
– Level the dryer using the threaded feet.
Use a spirit level.
– Do not remove the threaded feet under any
circumstances.
Mains connection

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.

.
Transport
– Preparation of dryer
a
see Frost protection.
– Transport the dryer in a vertical upright position.
– Following transportation, leave the dryer to stand for two hours.
There may be residual water in the dryer.
This can leak out if the dryer is at an angle.
1.
Remove all accessories
from the drum.
The drum must be empty.
Make sure that the air inlet
remains unobstructed
Clean and level
Do not install the dryer behind a door or sliding
door, which could prevent or restrict opening of the
dryer door. This will prevent children from locking
themselves in and putting their lives in danger.
2.
Do not operate the dryer if
there is a danger of frost.

Only when the appliance is
switched off.
Care and cleaning
Heat exchanger
The heat exchanger of the dryer is cleaned automatically when drying is in progress,
Cln
appears in the display panel. Do not pull the condensate container out during the cleaning
process.
Dryer housing, control panel, air intake
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth.
Do not use harsh cleaning agents or solvents.
Remove detergent and cleaning agent residue immediately.
Some water may collect between the window and the seal during drying. This does not affect
the proper operation of your dryer in any way.
Filter in the condensate container
The filter is cleaned automatically when the condensate container is emptied.
However, the filter should still be cleaned regularly under running water. This prevents
stubborn deposits/dirt from building up.
Cleaning is only required if the symbol
ā
Container
flashes again in the display panel after
the condensate container has been emptied.
1.
Pull out the condensate container.
2.
Pull the filter out of its snap-in lock.
3.
Clean the filter under running water or in the dishwasher.
4.
Refit the filter.
5.
Insert the condensate container so that it locks into place.
Only operate the dryer with the filter inserted.
Moisture sensor
The dryer is equipped with stainless-steel moisture sensors. These measure how damp
the laundry is. After long periods of use, a fine layer of limescale can form on the moisture
sensors.
1.
Open the door.
2.
Clean the moisture sensors using a damp sponge with a rough surface.
Do not use steel wool or other abrasive materials.

Normal noises
During drying, the compressor and the pump generate some noise which is entirely normal.
The compressor in the dryer may
occasionally generate a droning noise.
The volume and pitch of this may vary
depending on the selected
programmes and the progress of the
drying.
The compressor in the dryer is ventilated
from time to time, which creates a whirring
sound.
The automatic cleaning process causes
a clicking noise.
The process of pumping the condensation
into the condensate container generates
pumping noises.

What to do if ...
If you cannot rectify a fault yourself (e.g. switching off/on), please contact our after-sales service.
We will always find an appropriate solution and will avoid unnecessary visits by engineers. Trust
the expertise of the manufacturer and rest assured that the repair will be carried out by trained
service technicians using original spare parts. The contact details of your local after-sales service
can be found in the enclosed
after-sales service
directory.
When contacting the after-sales service, please quote the appliance's product number (E no.) and
production number (FD) (see the inside of the door).

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 timed programme for subsequent drying of laundry that is
still damp.
If you have exceeded the maximum load for the programme, the
laundry may not be dried properly.
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
