to the care labels on the textiles. The
temperatures in the machine may
deviate from this so that you get the
optimum mix of energy-saving and
washing results.
If the laundry is then dried in
the appliance, select the maximal
possible spin speed. The less water
the laundry contains, the less time
and energy are required for drying.
Do not dry dripping wet laundry.

The drying result is not
satisfactory (laundry is
not dry enough).
Excessively high ambient temperature (above 30 °C) or inadequate venti-
lation in the room in which the washer dryer is situated. Ensure adequate
ventilation to allow surplus heat to escape.
The laundry has not been spun well enough before drying. Always set the
highest selectable spin speed for the particular washing programme.
Washer dryer overloaded: Observe the recommendations for the maxi-
mum load in the programme table and on the load display. Do not overload
the washer dryer, as the maximum load for the drying phase is less than
the maximum load for the wash cycle. Unload the washer dryer after wash-
ing with the maximum load and divide the laundry into two drying cycles.
The power supply voltage is too low (below 200 V) – provide a suitable
power supply.
Air filter blocked? Clean the air filter ~ Page 30
Thick multilayered textiles or textiles with thick fillings dry easily on the sur-
face, but not inside. This equalisation process may take longer. For these
types of textiles, select the timed drying programmes.
When the door is opened,
you will notice that a small
amount of water drips
onto the dried laundry.
The drying time is reduced for a smaller load. Some residual moisture may
remain in the dryer system. If the door is opened quickly, a suction effect is
generated which causes the moisture to drip out of the dryer system.
Open the door slowly. Avoid wrenching the door open.

Water supply
Notes
Do not kink, crush, alter or cut
through the water supply hose
(otherwise, its strength can no longer
be guaranteed).
Only tighten the screw connections
by hand. If the screw connections
are tightened too tightly using a tool
(pliers), the threads may be
damaged.
Optimum water pressure in the mains:
100–1000 kPa (1–10 bar)
When the tap is turned on, the water
flow is at least 8 l/min.
If the water pressure is higher, install
a pressure reducing valve.

touched.
When disconnecting the main plug,
always pull the plug itself and not the
cable, otherwise the cable could be
damaged.
Never touch or hold the mains plug
with wet hands.
Never pull out the mains plug during
operation.
Only connect the washer dryer to an
alternating current using a correctly
installed earthed socket.

which features this symbol: z.
Only this symbol guarantees
compliance with the currently valid
regulations.
The mains plug is always accessible.
The power cord is not kinked,
crushed, altered or severed and has
not come into contact with any heat
sources.
