If the tumble dryer has not been trans- ported as described in the operating instructions, it must be left to stand for at least 1 hour before it is connected to the electricity supply.

Energy saving tips To avoid unnecessarily long drying times and high consumption of energy: Make sure your laundry is spun at the maximum spin speed before drying.

Clean the fluff filters in the door and in the door opening after every drying cycle. Make sure the room temperature is not too high.

Notes on correct laundry care 寿Remove foreign objects like detergent dispensing devices from the laundry. They can melt and damage the dryer and the laundry. ĺ Sort the laundry according to the type of fibre and weave, size, garment care label symbol and the drying level required. ĺ Disentangle the laundry. ĺ Check seams and stitching to ensure that padding and linings are intact. ĺ Fasten duvet covers and pillow cases to prevent small items from being rolled up inside them. ĺ Fasten hooks and eyes. ĺ Tie together textile belts and apron ties. ĺ Sew in or remove underwiring from bras. 1 Condensed water container – empty after every drying programme 2 Door 3 Control panel 4 Access panel for the heat exchanger and plinth filter – do not open during drying 5 Cool air intake grille – do not obstruct with a laundry basket or other objects Tips on drying Always observe the maximum recommended loads given in the "Programme chart". 寿Overloading can cause unnecessary wear and tear of the laundry, give a disappointing drying result and cause more creasing.

The further you open the flacon, the more intense the fragrance.

After dryingTo avoid the fragrance escaping needlessly:

ĺ Turn the outer ring anti-clock-wise until marker is in position .  

If you want to dry laundry occasionally without adding fragrance: Remove the fragrance flacon and store it in its original packaging until you want to use it again. See the following section.

ĺ Use your fingers or a vacuum cleaner to remove the fluff from the surface of the filter.

ĺ Push the upper fluff filter back into position until it clicks.

ĺ Close the door.

Cleaning the fluff filters and air flow openings thoroughly

If the drying duration has become longer or the surface of the filters is visibly compacted with fluff, you should carry out the following cleaning procedure.

ĺ Pull the upper fluff filter forwards to remove it.

ĺ Turn the yellow dial on the lower fluff filter in the direction of the arrow (until you hear it click).

ĺ Hold the dial and pull the fluff filter forwards to remove it.

ĺ You can reduce the duration with the sensor.

Starting ĺ Touch the Start/Stop sensor. Start/Stop and light up.

– Delay start times of more than will count down in hours and then in minutes until the start of the programme.

– The drum will turn briefly every hour until the start of the programme to reduce laundry creasing.

Emptying the condensed water containerEmpty the condensed water container after every drying programme.

The indicator will light up when the maximum level in the condensed water container is reached.To turn the indicator light off: Open and close the door while the dryer is switched on.

寿Close the door fully. Otherwise the door and the front panel of the condensed water container could suffer damage when pulling the container out.

ĺ Pull out the condensed water container.

ĺ To prevent water running out, keep it in a horizontal position when carrying it. Hold it at the front and towards the back.

ĺ Empty the container.

ĺ Replace the container in the dryer.

寿Do not drink condensed water. It can cause health problems in people and animals.

Problem/fault message Possible cause and remedy

lights up after a programme is cancelled

The condensed water container is full or there is a kink in the drain hose. ĺ Empty the condensed water container. ĺ Check the drain hose.

To switch off : ĺ Open and close the door (with the dryer switched on).

lights up at the end of a programme

There is a build-up of fluff (see "Cleaning and Care"). ĺ Clean the fluff filters. ĺ Clean the plinth filter.

To switch off : ĺ Open and close the door (with the dryer switched on).

lights up The programme selector has been moved. ĺ Select the original programme. The time remaining will appear in the display again.

Bars flash in the display at the end of a programme: ………

The programme has finished but the laundry has not yet cooled down. ĺ Either remove the laundry and spread it out to cool down or leave it in the tumble dryer to cool down during the cooling phase.

  flashes/lights up after the tumble dryer is switched on and a programme cannot be selected

Access via a code has been activated. ĺ You must enter the correct code to use the tumble dryer. See "Programmable functions - Pin Code" in the operating instructions.

The display is dark and only the Start/Stop sensor is flashing

This is not a fault, but a normal function. ĺ Touch a sensor to switch on the indicators.

See the operating instructions, "Programmable functions - Control panel standby status".The drum will turn at intervals in the Anti-crease phase.

Problem/fault message Possible cause and remedy

The dryer is switched off at the end of the programme

The tumble dryer switches off automatically. This is not a fault, but a normal function.See the operating instructions, "Programmable functions - Dryer switch-off status".

The laundry is not sufficiently dry

The load consisted of different types of fabric. ĺ Finish drying using the Warm air timed drying programme. ĺ Select a more suitable programme next time.

Tip: You can alter the drying levels for some programmes. See the "Programmable functions -  Cotton drying levels and Minimum iron drying levels" in the operating instructions.

Items made of synthetic fibres are charged with static electricity after drying

Synthetic fibres tend to attract static charge.Static charge can be reduced by adding a fabric softener to the final rinse in the washing programme.

There is a build-up of fluff

Fluff is principally the result of friction when garments are being worn and to some extent when they are being washed. Machine drying hardly causes any fluff to form.Fluff is collected by the fluff filters and the plinth filter and can be removed easily.See "Cleaning and care".

There are humming noises

This is not a fault. The compressor is operating.These noises are quite normal and do not indicate a fault.
