There is a risk of electric shock

as the dryer is operated with

electricity.

You should therefore observe

the following:

■Never touch or hold the

mains plug with wet hands.

■Only pull out the mains cable

Safety instructions en

Safety for children

:Warning

Risk of death or injury!

You should therefore observe

the following:

■Do not leave the dryer

unattended when children or

other people who cannot

assess the risks are nearby.

■Do not let children play with

the dryer.

■Children may become

entangled in packaging or

film if allowed to play with

them, or they may pull them

over their heads and

suffocate. Keep packaging,

packaging parts and film out

of the reach of children.

■Children may lock

themselves in the dryer.

Therefore, when an

end of its service life, unplug

it from the mains, cut through

the mains cable and destroy

the lock on the dryer door.

Appliance safety

:Warning

Risk of death!

■Do not use the dryer if

industrial chemicals have

been used to clean it.

■Laundry that has come into

contact with solvents, oil,

wax, wax remover, paint,

grease or stain remover may

ignite or cause an explosion

when drying is in progress.

Before drying, rinse the

laundry in hot water with

detergent.

■Coal dust or flour in the area

around the dryer may cause

an explosion.

■Only replace defective

components with genuine

spare parts.

en Safety instructions

Caution!

Risk of material damage to

the dryer or fabrics

■Only use the dryer for drying

and freshening up fabrics at

home and for fabrics that

have been washed with

water and are suitable for

tumble-drying.

Any other use is not

considered intended use and

is prohibited.

■Foamed material or foam

rubber may become

deformed or melt during

drying. Do not dry any

laundry that contains foamed

material or rubber.

■Do not lean or sit on the

dryer door, as the dryer may

tip over.

■Loose cables or hoses may

cause you to trip. Avoid

tripping hazards.

■Light things, such as hair,

may be sucked into the air

inlet during operation; keep

these away from the dryer.

■The last phase of the drying

cycle takes place without any

heat (cooling cycle) to

ensure that the laundry

remains at a temperature

that will not damage it.

:Warning

Risk of burns!

The exterior of the appliance's

rear panel becomes very hot

during operation. Never touch

the hot surface of the

appliance's rear panel. Keep

Environmental protection en

7Environmental

protection

Environmentalprotection

Packaging/old appliance

)

Dispose of packaging in an

environmentally-responsible manner.

This appliance is designated according

to European directive 2012/19/EC

which governs waste electrical and

electronic equipment (WEEE).

The directive provides a framework for

the collection and recycling of old

appliances, which is valid across

the EU.

Energy-saving tips

■Spin the laundry before drying.

The drier the laundry, the shorter the

drying time will be, thus consuming

less energy.

■Load the dryer with the maximum

load.

Note: Do not exceed the maximum

load for the programs, as this

prolongs the drying time and

increases energy consumption.

■Ventilate the room and keep the air

inlet on the dryer free to ensure air

exchange.

■Clean the fluff filter after each drying

cycle. If the fluff filter is dirty, the

drying time is prolonged and energy

consumption is increased.

■Energy saving mode: If the dryer is

not operated for a prolonged period,

it automatically switches off before

the program starts and when the

program has ended to save energy.

The display panel and indicator

lamps go off after a few minutes and

the Start button flashes. To activate

the lighting, press any button, open

or close the dryer door or turn the

program selector.
