Sorting laundry
• Check the symbols on the care labels of the various gar-
ments to verify whether the garments can be safely tumble
dried.
• Sort laundry according to the type of fabric.
• Empty all pockets and check for loose buttons.
• Close zips and hooks and fasten belts and strings without
tightening them.
• Wring out garments to remove the maximum amount of
water possible.
!
Do not load the dryer when garments are dripping wet.
Maximum load sizes
Do not overload the drum.
The following values indicate the weight of dry garments:
Natural fibres: maximum kg
Synthetic fibres: maximum kg
! Do not overload the dryer as this may result is reduced
drying performance.
Care labels
Always check the care labels, especially when placing
garments in the tumble dryer for the first time. Below are the
most commonly used symbols:
May be tumble dried.
Do not tumble dry.
Tumble dry – high heat.
Tumble dry – low heat.
Drying times
Drying times are approximate and may vary depending on
the following:
• Amount of water retained by items after the spin cycle:
towels and delicate items retain a lot of water.
• Fabrics: items of the same fabric, but with different texture
and thickness may have different drying times.
• Amount of laundry: single items and small loads may take
longer to dry.
• Drying: if items are to be ironed, they can be removed
from the dryer while still slightly damp. Items that require
complete drying can be left longer.
• Heat setting.
• Temperature of the room: the lower the temperature of the
room, the longer it will take for the dryer to dry clothing.
• Bulk: certain bulky items require special care during the
drying process. We suggest removing these items and
replacing them in the dryer once they have been shaken
out: repeat this procedure several times during the course
of the drying cycle.
! Do not over-dry items.
All fabrics contain natural dampness which helps to keep
them soft and fluffy.
The drying times provided refer to the automatic Cupboard
dry programmes.
The Timed drying settings are also indicated to enable you
to select the most suitable timed option.
The weight refers to dry items.

Troubleshooting
Possible causes / Solution:
• The plug is not plugged into the socket, or not making contact.
• There has been a power failure.
• The fuse has blown. Try to plug another appliance into the socket.
• You are using an extension cord? Try to plug the dryer’s power cord directly into the
socket.
• The door is not closed securely?
• The programme has not been set properly (see Start and Programmes).
• The Start/Pause button has not been pressed (see Start and Programmes).
• You have set a delayed time (see Start and Programmes).
• The filter has not been cleaned (see Maintenance).
• The water container needs emptying? The empty water light is flashing? (see Main-
tenance).
• The condenser needs cleaning? (see Maintenance).
• The temperature setting is not ideal for the type of fabric you are drying (see Start
and Programmes, and see Laundry).
• The correct drying time has not been selected for the load (see Laundry).
• The air intake grille is obstructed (see Installation, and see Maintenance).
• The items were too wet (see Laundry).
• The dryer was overloaded (see Laundry).
•
The water container was probably not emptied at the start of the programme. Do not
wait for the empty water signal, always check and empty the container before starting
a new drying programme (see Maintenance).
• This is normal, the light flashes when the container is full. If the light is on but not
flashing it is just a reminder to empty the container (see Start and Programmes).
• If the Option lights and the START/PAUSE light flash together with other lights on,
then:
- Turn off and remove the plug. Clean the filter and the condenser (see
Maintenance). Then replace the plug, turn on and start another programme. If
the same combination of lights are on, note down the lights and contact the
Service Centre (see Service).
! For safety the dryer has a maximum programme time of 5 hours. If an automatic
programme has not sensed the required final moisture in this time the dryer will
complete the programme and stop. Check the above points and run the programme
again, if the results are still damp, contact the Service Centre (see Service).
Problem:
The tumble dryer won’t start.
Drying cycle will not begin.
Its taking a long time to dry.
Empty water light is flashing but the
dryer has only been running for a short
period.
Empty water light is on and the water
container is not full.
The OPTION lights and the START/
PAUSE light Flash amber.
Programme finishes and clothes are
damper thanexpected..
One day your dryer seems not to be working. Before you call your Service Centre (see Service), go through the following
troubleshooting suggestions:
Note:
This tumble dryer, in compliance with new energy saving regulations, is fitted with an automatic standby system which is enabled after about 30
minutes if no activity is detected. Press and hold the ON-OFF button until the dryer reactivates.
