Sorting and preparing laundry

Sorting laundry

• Sort by fabric type:

– Cotton/linen for programmes in COT-

TONS programme group.

– Mixtures and synthetics for pro-

grammes in SYNTHETICS programme

group.

• Sort by care label: The care labels mean:

Drying in the tumble dryer possible in

principle

Drying at normal temperature

Drying at reduced temperature (press

DELICATE button!)

Drying in the tumble dryer not possible

Important! Do not place in the appliance any

wet laundry which is not specified on the care

label as being suitable for tumble-drying.

This appliance can be used for all wet laundry

items which are labelled as suitable for tum-

ble-drying.

• Do not dry new, coloured textiles together

with light-coloured laundry items. Textile

colours may bleed.

• Do not dry cotton jersey and knitwear with

the EXTRA DRY programme. Items may

shrink!

• Wool and wool-like textiles can be dried

using the WOOL CARE programme.

Preparing laundry

• To avoid laundry becoming tangled: close

zips, button up duvet covers and tie loose

ties or ribbons (e.g. of aprons).

• Empty pockets. Remove metal items (pa-

per clips, safety pins, etc).

• Turn items with double-layered fabrics in-

side out (e.g. with cotton-lined anoraks,

the cotton layer should be outermost).

These fabrics will then dry better.

Important! Do not overload the appliance.

Drying cycle complete / removing

laundry

Once the drying cycle is complete, the lights

END and FILTER (light 4) are on. If the buzzer

function is active, an acoustic signal will

sounds intermittently for about one minute.

The drying cycles are automatically fol-

lowed by an anti-crease phase which

lasts around 30 minutes. The drum ro-

tates at intervals during this phase. This

keeps the laundry loose and free of crea-

ses. The laundry can be removed at any

time during the anti-crease phase. (The

laundry should be taken out towards the

end of the anti-crease phase at the latest

to prevent creases from forming.)

1. Open door.

3. Remove filter after clothes has been re-

moved. Clean the filter.

Warning! Before You place the filter,

please check it there is nothing inside the

filter seat.

cycle.

5. Close the door.

lates during drying. To ensure that the dryer

works perfectly, the fluff filter must be

cleaned after every drying cycle.

Cleaning the door

Clean periodically the interior part of the door

to remove any fluff. Accurate cleaning en-

sures correct drying.

Cleaning the drum

wool to clean the drum.

Lime in the water or cleaning agents may

form a barely visible lining on the inside

of the drum. The degree to which the

laundry has been dried is then no longer

detected reliably. The laundry is damper

than expected when removed from the

dryer.

vinegar-based cleaner) to wipe down the

inside of the drum and drum ribs.

Installation

Important! The appliance must be moved in

vertical position for transport.

Appliance positioning

• It is recommended that, for your conven-

ience, the machine is positioned close to

your washing machine.

• The tumble dryer must be installed in a

clean place, where dirt does not build up.

• Air must be able to circulate freely all round

the appliance. Do not obstruct the front

ventilation grille or the air intake grilles at

the back of the machine.

• To keep vibration and noise to a minimum

when the dryer is in use, it should be

placed on a firm, level surface.

• Once in its permanent operating position,

check that the dryer is absolutely level with

the aid of a spirit level. If it is not, raise or

lower the feet until it is.

• The feet must never be removed. Do not

restrict the floor clearance through deeply

carpets, strips of wood or similar. This

might cause heat built-up which would in-

terfere with the operation of the appliance.
