Drying
Before using the machine for the first time, it is advisa-
ble to dry some damp cloths for about 20 minutes in
order to eliminate any residue of the manufacturing
process.
Load the laundry
■
Load the items one at a time, shaking them out
loosely.
Please check the laundry does not get caught
between the door and filter.
Select time
■
Turn the selector dial clockwise to the required
minute setting (in the high or low temperature
range, according to the fabric): the mains-on light
illuminates and the machine starts operating.
When the selector dial is in position , the hea-
ting element is switched off and the laundry is coo-
led for 8 minutes. At the end of this phase the
machine stops: the programme is completed.
Important: It is not advisable to open the door during
operation to check the degree of dryness. As the laun-
dry is warm, when touched it gives the impression of
still being damp, even if it is dry. Open the door after
the programme has finished.
If the programme has to be interrupted, turn the selec-
tor dial to
in order to cool the laundry and prevent
the heat from building up inside the machine.
When drying is completed
■
Unplug the appliance
■
Clean the filter (see page 44)

chine as small loads are uneconomical.

Never tumble dry the following:

bulky materials such as anoraks, blankets, eider-
downs, sleeping bags, feather quilts and any items
containing rubber foam or materials similar to rub-
ber foam.
■
Always follow the instructions on garment labels.
tumble dry normal (high temperature)
tumble dry delicate (low temperature)
do not tumble dry
■
Close pillowcases and covers with fasteners to
prevent small laundry items getting tangled inside
them. Close press studs, zips and hooks and tie
belts and apron strings.
■
Sort laundry according to type and degree of dry-
ing required.
■
Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and
saves energy.
■
Avoid drying dark clothes with light coloured fluffy
items such as towels as they could attract the fluff.
■
Remove the laundry when the dryer has finished
drying.
■
To avoid a static charge when drying is completed,
use either a fabric softener when you are washing
the laundry or a fabric conditioner specifically for
tumble dryers.
■
If at the end of the programme the laundry is still
too damp, set the dial for a further period of drying
(remembering to take into account the cooling peri-
od).
