with the mark.
▶ Never equip the appliance with an external switching device,
e.g. a timer or remote control.
▶ Never connect the appliance to a circuit that is regularly
switched on and off by the energy supplier.
▶ When the appliance is installed, the mains plug of the power
cord must be freely accessible. If free access is not possible, an
all-pole isolating switch must be installed in the permanent elec-
trical installation according to the installation regulations.
▶ When installing the appliance, check that the power cable is not
trapped or damaged.
If the insulation of the power cord is damaged, this is dangerous.

or mattress covers, in the appliance.
WARNING‒Risk of suffocation!
Children may breathe in or swallow small parts, causing them to
suffocate.
▶ Keep small parts away from children.
▶ Do not let children play with small parts.
WARNING‒Risk of explosion!
If there is coal dust or flour in the air around the appliance, this
may cause an explosion.
▶ Keep the area around the appliance clean during operation.
WARNING‒Risk of poisoning!
Detergents and care products may result in poisoning if con-
sumed.

en Safety
8
▶ Keep detergents and care products out of the reach of children.
WARNING‒Risk of explosion!
Highly flammable objects such as lighters or matches may ignite
during the drying process.

damage
Preventing material damage
ATTENTION!
The functionality of the appliance
may be impaired if you use the
wrong quantity of fabric softener, de-
tergent, care product or cleaning
agent.
▶ Follow the dosage recommenda-
tions from the manufacturer.
Exceeding the maximum load capa-
city impairs the function of the appli-
ance.
▶ Observe the maximum load capa-
city for each programme and do
not exceed it.
→"Programmes", Page25
Foam and foam rubber may deform
or melt during the drying process.
▶ Do not dry laundry that contains
foam or foam rubber.
The appliance is secured for trans-
portation using transit bolts. Transit
bolts which have not been removed
may result in material damage and
damage to the appliance.
▶ Before starting up the appliance,
remove the transit bolts completely
and keep them in a safe place.
▶ Before transport, fit the transit bolts
fully in order to prevent damage in
transit.
Material damage may be caused if
the water inlet hose is connected in-
correctly.
▶ Tighten the screw connections on
the water inlet until they are hand-
tight.
▶ Connect the water inlet hose dir-
ectly to the water tap, without any
additional connecting elements
such as adapters, extensions or
valves.
▶ Ensure that the inner diameter of
the water tap is at least 17mm.
▶ Make sure that the length of the
thread on the connection to the
water tap is at least 10mm.
If the water pressure is too high or
too low, the appliance may not be
able to operate properly.
▶ Ensure that the water pressure in
the water supply system is at least
100kPa (1bar) and max.
1000kPa (10bar).
▶ If the water pressure exceeds the
maximum value specified, a pres-
sure-reducing valve must be in-
stalled between the drinking water
connection and the hose set of the
appliance.
▶ Do not connect the appliance to
the mixer tap of an unpressurised
hot-water boiler.
Modified or damaged water hoses
may result in material damage and
damage to the appliance.
▶ Never kink, crush, modify or cut
through water hoses.
▶ Only use the water hoses supplied
with the appliance or genuine
spare hoses.
▶ Never re-use water hoses that
have been used before.
Operating the appliance using water
that is dirty or too hot may lead to
material damage and damage to the
appliance.
▶ Only operate the appliance with
cold mains water.
Unsuitable cleaning products may
damage the surfaces of the appli-
ance.
▶ Do not use harsh or abrasive de-
tergents.
▶ Do not use cleaning products with
a high alcohol content.
▶ Do not use hard scouring pads or
cleaning sponges.
▶ Clean the appliance with nothing
but water and a soft, damp cloth.
en Environmental protection and saving energy
12
▶ Remove all detergent residue,
spray residue or other residues im-
mediately if they come into contact
with the appliance.

3.1 Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environ-
mentally compatible and can be re-
cycled.
▶ Sort the individual components by
type and dispose of them separ-
ately.
3.2 Save energy and con-
serve resources
If you follow these instructions, your
appliance will use less electricity and
less water.
Choose programmes with low tem-
peratures and longer wash times and
use maximum load capacity.
a
Energy consumption and water
consumption is most efficient.
Add detergent based on the laun-
dry's degree of soiling.
a
For light to normal soiling, a smal-
ler amount of detergent is suffi-
cient. Observe the dosage recom-
mendation from the detergent
manufacturer.
Reduce the washing temperature for
lightly and normally soiled laundry.
a
At lower temperatures, the appli-
ance consumes less energy. For
light to normal soiling, lower tem-
peratures than indicated on the
care label are also sufficient.
Set the maximum spin speed if you
want to dry the laundry in the appli-
ance afterwards.
a
The drier the laundry, the shorter
the programme duration when dry-
ing which, in turn, reduces energy
consumption. A higher spin speed
reduces the residual moisture in
the laundry and increases the
volume of the spin noise.
Wash the laundry without prewash.
a
Washing with prewash increases
the programme duration and in-
creases energy and water con-
sumption.
The appliance has a continuous
automatic load adjustment function.
a
Depending on the type of fabric
and load capacity, the continuous
automatic load adjustment func-
tion optimally adjusts the water
consumption and programme dur-
ation.
3.3 Energy saving mode
If you do not use the appliance for a
brief period, it automatically switches
to energy-saving mode.
Energy-saving mode ends when you
use the appliance again.
