6/64

of the appliance without supervision.

1.2 General Safety

•Do not change the specification of this appliance.

•The appliance can be installed as freestanding or below a

kitchen counter with correct space (refer to the Installation

leaflet).

•Do not install the appliance behind a lockable door, a sliding

door or a door with a hinge on the opposite side, that would

prevent the appliance door from being fully open.

•The ventilation opening in the base must not be covered by

a carpet, mat, or any floor covering.

•CAUTION: The appliance must not be supplied through an

external switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a

circuit that is regularly switched on and off by a utility.

•Connect the mains plug to the mains socket only at the end

of the installation process. Make sure that the mains plug is

accessible after installation.

•If the mains power supply cable is damaged, it must be

replaced by the manufacturer, its Authorised Service Centre

or similarly qualified persons to avoid an electrical hazard.

•Do not exceed the maximum load of 8,0 kg (refer to the

"program chart" chapter).

•Do not use the appliance if items have been soiled with

industrial chemicals.

around the appliance.

•Do not run the appliance without a filter. Clean the lint filter

•Do not dry unwashed items in the tumble dryer.

7/64

SAFETY INFORMATION

•Items that have been soiled with substances such as

cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene, spot

removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers should be

washed in hot water with an extra amount of detergent

before being dried in the tumble dryer.

•Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps,

waterproof textiles, rubber backed articles and clothes or

pillows fitted with foam rubber pads should not be dried in

the tumble dryer.

•Fabric softeners, or similar products, should only be used as

specified by the product manufacturer’s instructions.

•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 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.

•Remove all objects from items that could be a source of fire

ignition such as lighters or matches.

•WARNING: Never stop a tumble dryer before the end of the

drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and

spread out so that the heat is dissipated.

•Before any maintenance operation, deactivate the appliance

and disconnect the mains plug from the socket.
