IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Applicable to installation in the EU
The drying cabinet can be used by children over the age of
8 and persons (including children) with various disabilities or
inadequate experience and knowledge, provided they are kept
under supervision or are given instructions on how to use the
appliance in a safe way and understand the risks that use entails.
Children must not play with the appliance.
Applicable to installation in countries outside the EU
The appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children)
with various disabilities or inadequate experience and knowledge.
They may use the appliance only under supervision or if they have
received instructions on how to use the appliance form a person
who is responsible for their safety.
Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
Applicable to all installation
The drying cabinet must be installed and kept indoors.
If the power cord is damaged, it must be immediately
replaced, and this must be done only by the manufacturer, the
manufacturer's service agent or similarly qualifi ed persons in order
to prevent danger.
Follow ASKO instructions in repair and replacement of parts.
This drying cabinet meets applicable safety requirements. Incorrect use
may, however, lead to injuries and damage to objects.
The advice and caution notices in this manual have been written to enable
you to avoid incorrect use and unnecessary risks of accidents, and should
be read before installing and using the drying cabinet.
CAUTION: This equipment is intended only to be used to dry fabrics
washed in water.

FOR A GOOD ENVIRONMENT
PACKAGING MATERIALS
The packaging that protects the drying cabinet
against damage in transit has been chosen
with concern for the environment in mind and is
therefore recyclable.
Packaging that is returned to the material cycle
means reduced consumption of raw materials
and a smaller volume of waste.
MANAGEMENT OF END-OF-
LIFE DRYING CABINET
When the drying cabinet has reached the end
of its useful life, it must be taken to a recycling
centre for disposal. Many parts of the drying
cabinet can be re-used, but it also contains
other materials that must be handled correctly.
You should therefore never leave the drying
cabinet or parts of the cabinet for collection
with household waste, as this may lead to
risks to health and cause damage to the
environment.
The end-of-life drying cabinet should instead
be taken to a recycling centre. Check with your
dealer if necessary.
All the plastic parts of the drying cabinet are
marked with internationally standardised
symbols. The parts of the drying cabinet can
therefore be recycled in an environmentally
sound manner by waste separation.
7
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRYING CABINET
The ASKO DC7784HP drying cabinet operate
according to the heat pump principle with a
dehumidifi er instead of a conventional hot-
air unit. As a result, the washing is dried at
lower heat and with substantially lower energy
consumption.
The cabinet is a completely enclosed system.
No exhaust-air connection is required. The
moisture condenses during the process,
and the water that is formed is conveyed to a
detachable water tank, or through a hose to the
drain.
In addition, the fan is so powerful that it causes
the items of clothing to fl utter, making the drying
process even more effi cient.

CAUTION
Read the safety instructions on page 5
before using the cabinet.
___________________________________
23
OPERATION
There are three sections with hangers in the cabinet. Each section has a number of rails for
hanging items to dry.
Hang the items in the drying cabinet according to how much space they require - not
according to their weight.
Fold up the two bottom hanger sections if long items are to be dried.
Hang gloves, caps, scarves and similar items on the hanger strips on the inside of the door.
Pull the hanger hooks in the upper hanger section forward so that the washing can be hung more
easily. Push them back when not in use.
Do not overload the drying cabinet. If you do, the washing will become creased and dry
unevenly. Instead, leave a space between the items of clothing if possible.
If there is a risk of particular items shedding colour, free space should be left around them.
Do not place shoes or similar items on the shoe rack in such a way that they obstruct air fl ow.
Avoid drying heavy items of clothing together with lighter items as they have very diff erent
drying times.
Do not hang knitted items. These will stretch unnecessarily as they are heavy when wet.
Avoid hanging fabrics that are dripping wet in the drying cabinet as the drying cabinet is not
intended to collect large quantities of water.
This also leads to abnormally long drying times.
24
USER TIPS
Always following the washing instructions on the item of clothing if present.
If a fabric conditioner or anti-static agent is used, follow the manufacturer's instructions for
use of this product.
Remove washing that it is already dry. This will reduce drying time for remaining washing.
_____________________________
CAUTION
Do not dry clothing or similar items that
have been treated with petrol or other highly
volatile and infl ammable substance. This
may lead to the formation of an explosive gas
mixture.
____________________________________
_____________________________
NB
If the sealing strip does not close completely
tightly or if the door has a tendency to open,
this may be due to the cleaning fi lter not
having been installed correctly. Make sure
that the cleaning fi lter and the fi lter holder
are pressed down fully so that no air leakage
occurs.
____________________________________
____________________________
NB
When the cabinet is cold it may happen
that the sealing strip of the door does
not close completely. However, this is
fully compensated when the cabinet is in
operation as the sealing strip expands.

SETTING OF DRYING PROGRAMME
There are ways of optimising the two automatic programmes of the drying cabinet for best possible
results.
The setting is adjusted on the control panel for the programme concerned.
Adjustments must be made if it is found that the
Washing does not dry suffi ciently.
Washing is over-dried – Long drying time.
INTRODUCTION
The drying cabinet's two automatic programmes stop automatically when the laundry is dry.
To
decide when the washing is dry, a measured value is compared against a factory-set parameter.
Parameter P 2072 for NORMAL DRY drying programme and
Parameter P 2071 for EXTRA DRY drying programme.
It is primarily these two parameters that are adjusted to optimise the drying process.
The NORMAL DRY programme is controlled by a moisture sensor.
EXTRA DRY programme is controlled by a moisture sensor and a time factor.
If it is found that the washing does not dry suffi ciently in the:
NORMAL DRY
drying programme, the parameter value for P 2072 is reduced.
EXTRA DRY drying programme, the parameter value for P 2071 is increased.
If it is found that the washing is over-dried, long drying time in the:
NORMAL DRY
drying programme, the parameter value for P 2072 is increased.
EXTRA DRY drying programme, the parameter value for P 2071 is reduced.
Drying processes must always be optimised in small steps; start by adjusting the parameter
concerned 1-2 units up or down, then check the result after the next drying process and make a
further adjustment if necessary.

2. Check that the water tank is empty.
3. Make sure that the correct programme has been selected for the
type of washing.
4. Make sure that the washing is not soaking wet (poorly spun).
5. Make sure that too much washing has not been hung up.

tightly, the door
is ajar.
1. Check that the cabinet is level. Check with a spirit level, adjust if
necessary with the adjusting feet.
