TABLE OF CONTENTS

GENERAL

Please read the instruction manual and save it for future reference.

• Please do not use the tumble dryer if you have not read and

understood these instructions or use ﬁrst.

• Failure to observe the instructions for use or inappropriate use of the tumble

dryer may result in damage to the laundry or appliance, or injury to the user.

• Instructions for use are available on our website at www.asko.com.

• Your dryer is intended solely for household use.

• Before connecting the dryer to the power mains, please read carefully the

instructions for use that describe the dryer and its correct and safe use. The

instructions apply to several appliance types or models; thus, settings or

equipment may be described herein which is not available in your dryer.

• Leave any repairs and similar tasks on the dryer to an expert. Unprofessional

repair may result in an accident or major malfunction.

• After installation, the dryer should stand still for two hours before it is

connected to the power mains.

• At least two persons are required to install the tumble dryer on top of a

washing machine.

• The dryer may not be connected to the power mains using an extension

cord.

• Do not connect the tumble dryer to an electrical outlet intended for an

electric shaver or hair dryer.

• If the power cord is damaged, it has to be replaced by the manufacturer,

an authorized service technician, or a similarly qualiﬁed person, in order to

avoid any hazards.

• 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.

• After the drying process, unplug the dryer power cord from the power

outlet.

• In case of incorrect appliance connection, incorrect use, or servicing by an

unauthorized person, the user shall bear the cost of any damage.

• Air in the dryer environment should not contain dust particles.

The air where the dryer is installed should be thoroughly ventilated to prevent

reverse ﬂow of gases released from the gas appliances with open ﬁre (e.g.

ﬁreplaces).

• Do not evacuate the air from the dryer through channels used for appliances

or devices that use natural gas or other fuels for their operation (only applies

to the evacuation dryer).

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Do not dry unwashed laundry in the dryer.

• Laundry stained with oil, acetone, alcohol, oil derivatives, stain removers,

turpentine, wax, and wax removers should be washed in a washing machine

with hot water and detergent before it is dried in the dryer.

• Clothing that includes latex, rubber parts, shower and bathing caps, and

laundry or covers with rubber foam may not be dried in the dryer.

• Use laundry conditioners or similar products in compliance with

manufacturer's instructions.

• Do not place the dryer behind lockable or sliding door, or door with a hinge

on the opposite side of the dryer door hinge. Install the dryer in such way that

the door can always be freely opened.

• Never block the air exhaust (evacuation opening).

• Do not place the dryer on a carpet with long ﬁbres as this may impede air

circulation.

• The air in the room where the dryer is installed may not contain dust

particles.

• Make sure the ﬁbres do not accumulate around the dryer.

• Remove all objects such as lighters and matches from the pockets.

• After installation, wait for 24 hours before using the appliance. If the dryer

has to be laid down on one of the sides during transport or servicing, place it

with its left side, viewing from the appliance front, downwards (only applies to

dryers with a heat pump).

• The appliance may not be in contact with a wall or adjacent furniture.

• If the dryer is connected to an air exhaust system already used for another

appliance, a non-return valve must be installed. Reverse ﬂow into the dryer

could damage the appliance, and the non-return valve prevents such reverse

ﬂow (only applies to condenser dryers and dryers with a heat pump).

• A ﬂoat will switch oﬀthe appliance if the condensed water pipe is clogged

or if there is a risk of overﬂowing of the condensed water accumulated in the

condensed water tank (only applies to condenser dryers and dryers with a

heat pump).

• If you wish to move the dryer or store it in a non-heated room during winter, it

is essential that you ﬁrst empty the condensed water tank (only applies to the

condenser dryers and dryers with a heat pump).

• Maximum drying capacity in kg (for the Cotton program) is indicated on the

rating plate.

SAFETY

• Only use the dryer to dry laundry that was washed with water. Do not

dry any laundry that was washed or cleaned with ﬂammable cleaners or

substances (such as gasoline, trichloroethylene etc.) as this may result in an

explosion.

• If you have cleaned your clothes with industrial cleaners or chemical

substances, do not dry them in the dryer.

• The air exhaust hose may not be connected to an active chimney used to

evacuate smoke or waste gases; into a shaft intended for ventilating rooms

with combustion equipment; or into a chimney used by third parties. If smoke

or waste gases return to the room where the dryer is installed, there is a

danger of poisoning (only applies to evacuation dryer).

• The dryer is protected with an automatic switch-oﬀsystem in case

of overheating. The system switches oﬀthe dryer immediately if the

temperature is too high (only applies to evacuation and condenser dryer).

• The overheating automatic switch-oﬀsystem may activate if the net ﬁlter is

clogged. Clean the ﬁlter, wait for the machine to cool down, and try running

it again. If the machine still fails to switch on, call a service technician (only

applies to the evacuation and condenser dryer).

• WARNING! The back of the dryer may get very hot during

operation. Wait for the dryer to cool down completely before touching

its back side.

• If you open the dryer door during the drying process, the clothes may be

very hot and there is a risk of burns.

• Never stop the drying cycle before it is completed; if you do interrupt the

cycle for any reason, be careful when removing the laundry from the drum

as it is very hot. Quickly remove the laundry from the drum and spread it to

allow it to cool down as quickly as possible.

CHILD SAFETY

• Do not allow the children to play with the dryer.

• Prevent your children and pets to enter the dryer drum.

• Before closing the dryer door and running the program, make sure there is

nothing except laundry in the drum (e.g. if a child climbed into the dryer drum

and closed the door from the inside).

• Activate the child lock.

See chapter "SYSTEM SETTINGS", section Child Lock.

• Do not let children younger than three years to come near the dryer,

unless they are under constant supervision.

• The dryer is made in compliance with all relevant safety standards. This

dryer may be used by children aged 8 years and above and by persons with

reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and

knowledge, but only if they are supervised during the use of the appliance,

if they have been provided relevant instructions regarding safe use of the

dryer, and if they understand the hazards of inappropriate use. Make sure

children do not play with the appliance. Make sure the children do not clean

the dryer or perform any maintenance tasks without supervision.

BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME

INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION

DRYER PLACEMENT

The dryer can be either free standing or installed onto

a washing machine.

The dryer emits heat. Therefore, do not place it in a

very small room, as the drying process may be longer

due to limited amount of available air.

Do not place the dryer in a room where

temperature can drop below 0 °C, as the machine

may not operate correctly at such low temperatures or

freeze with damages as consequences.

Install the dryer in a room with adequate ventilation and

a temperature between 15 °C and 25 °C.

Do not place the dryer behind lockable or sliding

door, or door with a hinge on the opposite side of the

dryer door hinge. Install the dryer in such way that the

door can always be freely opened.

Never block the air exhaust (evacuation opening).

At least two persons are required to install the

tumble dryer on top of a washing machine.

Do not place the dryer on a carpet with long ﬁbres

as this may impede air circulation.

The appliance may not be in contact with a wall or

adjacent furniture. For optimum operation of the drying

machine, it is recommended to consider the deviation

from the wall, as shown in picture.

Free-standing appliance

The dryer may be placed adjacent to a washing

machine.

If the friction between the dryer feet and the ﬂoor is not

suﬃcient, the dryer may move during operation. To

prevent the dryer from sliding around, use a non-slip

support or pad.

Stacking on top of a washing machine

To stack the dryer on top of a washing machine, use

the extra vacuum feet and the tipping guard (A+B),

supplied in the cardboard box in the dryer drum.

Tipping gurad part B is designed to ﬁt on ASKO

washing machines and might be hard or imposible

to mount on other brands. If the washing machine

and dryer are not of matching dimensions or if you

have installed a hidden helper between the two

appliances, then binding plates are available as

optional accessories at the service unit (available

only for HH and TD75 on top of WM80 or WM85, not

for general appliances with deviating dimensions).

All ASKO washing machines will bear the weight of

the dryer.

Washing machine on which you wish to install

the dryer must be able to bear the weight of the dryer

(see washing machine’s rating plate or technical

information).
