The final part of a drying cycle occurs without heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that the items

reach a lower temperature to avoid wrinkling.

End: Take the laundry out of the dryer.

The drying process is complete.

Anticrease: If the laundry is not removed at the end of the drying cycle, an automatic anti-

crease cycle will operate for maximum 15 min (by choosing the option “Anticrease” this time

can be extended up to 12 hours).

The drum rotates to prevent the laundry from creasing.

After the end of the “Anticrease” the dryer will switch off after a short time, to save energy.

Switching dryer off

“Remaining time” display

Depending on the programme selected a

default drying time is displayed.

fter start of cycle the time displayed is

corrected depending on the volume, type and

moisture of the laundry.

The drying time specified is a calculated

value which will be updated during the

drying cycle.

The flashing lines indicate that the calculation

is running.

The remaining time will be updated.

Eco Monito

The “Eco monitor” gives you a rough

feedback about the energy consumption of

the selected programme.

This function will not work for a time-based

programme.

s soon as you turn the programme selector

to any humidity steared programme, the

“Eco monitor” lamps will indicate the

expected energy consumption.

The three indicators show the degree of

consumption: the less energy your

programme setting is forecasted to consume,

the less indicators will light up.

This depends on the programme, initial

moisture and options selected, and also on

the size of the load.

For that reason, the forecasted degree of

energy consumption may adapt when the

tumble dryer detects the load size.

End

The drying programme is finished.

Please unload the dryer
