SAFETY

Thismachinemaynotbeusedfordryingfabrics

that have been dry-cleaned at home, or which

canbesuspectedofcontainingresiduesofflam-

mablefluids.

The tumble dryer is fitted with an overhea-

tingprotectiondevice,whichswitchesthemach-

ine off in the event of excessive temperature.

A float valve switches the machine off if the

condensation water hose becomes clogged, or if

there is danger of water flowing over from the

container.

INTERRUPTING THE PROGRAMME

You can interrupt a drying programme by ope-

ning the door, causing the drum to stop auto-

matically. The machine will then “remember”

the point in the drying programme at which it

was interrupted. Restarting: close the door and

press the button.The machine will rest-

art automatically from the point at which the

programme was interrupted.

You can also interrupt a programme by pres-

singthe button for three seconds. If you

interrupt a programme with this button, the

machine will forget where it was in the pro-

gramme, and you will have to select a new pro-

gramme to restart.

TRANSPORT/WINTER STORAGE

during the winter, on unheated premises, ensu-

re that the water container is drained.

7BEFORETUMBLEDRYING

Before you start tumble drying, here is some

advice that can be useful.

SPIN-DRIED?

Items that are to be tumble dried should first

bespin-dried,preferably at800revsper minute

or more. Better spin drying saves both energy

anddryingtime.

RECOMMENDED WASHING MARKING

Material suitable for tumble drying

The symbol above indicates that the material

can be tumble-dried. Cotton fabrics, towelling

and synthetic fibres are best suited to tumble

drying. Clothes and fabrics become softer and

fluffier when tumble-dried than when dried on

a line.

NOTE

Wear and tear of fabrics in a tumble dryer is

minimal. The lint caught in the lint filter con-

sists of dust and fibre residue that has been for-

med when wearing the garments.

Material which should not be tumble-

dried

Thissymbolindicatesthat the material will not

withstandtumble-drying.

Certain materials will melt or become dan-

gerously flammable if heated, while others will

loose their shape or shrink.

Do not tumble-dry...

• Materials that are marked “Do not dry close

to heat”.

• Items that have been dry-cleaned at home.

• Foam plastic.

• Glass-fibre materials

• Woollen items, because of the risk of felting.

SORTING FABRICS

Best results are obtained if all articles are of the

same material.

Close zip-fasteners, button up garments, tie

belts, and sort the fabrics and adapt the load

and the temperature as shown in the table be-

low.

TYPE OF FABFIC LOAD TEMPERATURE

White, coloured Cotton and 1/1 (6.0 kg) Normal

and synthetic linen

Polyester/ 1/2 (3.0 kg) Normal

cotton

Delicate and Acrylic, rayon, 1/2 (3.0 kg) Low

mild acetate etc.

Sort a suitable amount and type of fabric.

PROGRAMMES

Yourchoiceofprogrammewilldependonwhat

you wish to do with the fabrics after tumble

drying.TheavailableprogrammesareExtradry,

Dry,Normaldry,Irondry,Timeddryprogram-

meandAirfluff.

Extra dry

Thisprogrammeis designed for washing thatis

extremely difficult to dry, eg, jeans with very

thick seams.

NOTE

Knittedfabricsinparticularareliabletoshrink.

Use the Dry, Normal dry or Iron dry program-

meforthesematerials.Always stretch garments

out directly after drying.

Dry, Normal dry

These programmes turn off the heat when the

washing is dry, but not bone-dry.

The Dry programme turns off the heat a litt-

lelater than Normal dry. Choose what youpre-

fer by trial and error. Use these programmes

when you want dry fabrics.

Iron dry

This programme turns off the heat when the

washingisjustdampenoughforironingormang-

ling.

Timed dry

The programme length that you should choose

depends on what you wish to do with the fa-

brics after tumble drying. Dry different times

for different materials to find the right combi-

nation.

When using a timed dry programme with

mixed washing it may happen that some of the

items will not be sufficiently dried. Such items

cansuitablyby driedbyrunningthetimedpro-

gramme for a further 10 minutes or so.

Timed dry programmes automatically opera-

tes at temperature Low, but you can change it

yourself to Normal.

NOTE

Whenusingatimedprogrammeitispossibleto

over-dry fabrics if you set too long a time.This

can cause fabrics to shrink or crease and feel

rough.Syntheticmaterialscanalsobecomechar-

ged with static electricity. Set a shorter time if

you tumble dry at temperature Normal.

Air fluff

Use the air fluff programme just to shake dust

out of garments, air them or soften them up.

ToselectTimeddryprogrammeorAirfluffpro-

gramme, see Chapter 10, Making own drying

programmes.

OPTIONS

To choose these options, see Chapter 10, Ma-

kingowndryingprogrammes.

Cooling

You can choose between Normal cooling and

Quick cooling . Normal cooling lasts 20

minutes and Quick cooling lasts 5 minutes.

Buzzer

The machine offers you the possibility of hea-

ring when the cooling period ends. Set the op-

tion Buzzer on and it will sound for three

seconds when the programme is completed.

Anti-crease

You can select the anti-crease option to

prevent the fabrics from lying still and beco-

ming creased at the end of tumble drying.This

is a helpful option if you are unable to take out

the fabrics promptly at the end of the tumbling

phase.

Youcanchooseaprogrammedurationof1,2

or 3 hours. The drum will then continue to

rotate intermittently, i.e., three seconds every

minute for the number of hours chosen.

IfyouchooseBuzzerON, a signal willsound

each time the drum rotates.

TEMPERATURE

You can select Low temperature for the

Extra dry, Dry, Normal dry and Iron dry pro-

grammes.

DRYING TIME

Thedryingtimemaybeinfluencedbyanumber

of factors, such as the size of the load, the pro-

gramselected,the moisturecontentoftheload,

the materials being washed, connection capaci-

ty and the ambient temperature and humidity.

Dryingtimeremainingiscalculatedwithinfour

minutesofthe startofthe drying program.The

estimated time is shown in the bottom right-

hand corner of the display, together with the –

symbol.

If the actual drying time is less than that calcu-

lated, the time display may jump ahead, e.g.

from 50 to 20 minutes, at the end of the pro-

gram.

If the actual drying time is longer than that

calculated, the countdown will stop at the end

of the progam until the load is dry.

Please note that times include a cooling period.

The remaining drying time is estimated ap-

proximately(withinfour minutesofthestartof

display in intervals of five minutes.
