PRECAUTIONS AND GENERAL

RECOMMENDATIONS

1. Packing

The packing box may be fully recycled as

confirmed by the recycling symbol .

2. Energy saving tips

Always dry a full load: depending on the type of

laundry and the programme/drying time.

By preference use the maximum spin speed allowed

by your washing machine, since draining the water

mechanically requires less energy. You will save time

and energy when running your drying cycle.

Do not overdry the laundry.

Clean the lint filter after every drying cycle.

Place your dryer in a room with a temperature

between 15° C and 20° C. In case of higher

temperature ventilate the room.

Always select the correct programme/drying time

for the load in order to obtain the desired drying

results.

Select the gentle option only with small loads.

When drying cotton, for example. dry iron dry and

cupboard dry loads together. Start with the iron dry

programme/drying time setting, remove the laundry

to be ironed at the end of that cycle and dry the

remainder of the load on the cupboard dry setting.

3. Disposing of packaging and old Dryer:

The dryer is built from reusable materials. The

dryer must be disposed of in compliance with local

waste disposal regulations.

Before scrapping, cut off the power cable so that

the dryer cannot be connected to the mains.

4. Child safety:

Children must not be allowed to play with the

dryer.

5. General recommendations:

Always set the programme/time selector knob to

the “0” position after use.This prevents the dryer

from being switched on accidentally.

Before cleaning or carrying out maintenance,

switch off the dryer and disconnect it from the

mains supply.

To clean the outside of the dryer, use a neutral

detergent and a damp cloth.

Do not use abrasive detergents.

Wipe away lint from the door seal and the door

using a damp cloth.

If the lint filter mesh is clogged, clean it with water

and a soft brush.

Since lint can go through the filter it is necessary to

clean, from time to time, the complete filter area

(including below the filter) with a brush, a damp

cloth or with a vacuum cleaner.

Ifnecessary,thepower cable may bereplacedwith

an identical one obtained from our After-Sales

Service.The power cable must only be replacedby

a qualified technician.
