Installation of your new evacuation tumble dryer
The air that comes out of your
appliance is full of moisture and has to
be evacuated (See fig. 1)
a) Whether directly into the room if it is
sufficiently ventilated (if possible the
appliance should be installed near a
opened window),
b) Or through a fixed exhaust duct in the
wall near the outlet of the appliance
(install an air vent in the bottom area to
avoid condensing inside the duct).
The distance between the fins of the
air vent must be no less than 15 mm
to avoid dirtying.
The diameter of the hole crossing the
wall must at least be equal with the
external diameter of the duct.
c) Or, temporarily, the duct end can be
put out through an opened window.
IMPORTANT : never connect the duct to
a chimney (risk of combustion gas
returning), or to a controlled mechanical
ventilation device.
The appliance is delivered with the outlet
at the righthand side, but you can change
it.
The duct fitting needs some care :
• never extend it
limit the number of elbows to a
maximum of two, so that you will have
an efficient and a high performance
drying.
Changing the air outlet :
This modification should be done
before connecting your tumble dryer.
See fig. 2 (b,c), the appliance is shown
from the back view.
b) Unclip the handle, by pulling it out, then
release the duct.
c) Push the duct with the handle through
the side plate by turning the handle as
shown on the picture.
Lefthand side outlet
(See fig. 3)
Remove the stopper at the left side
Put the duct with its handle into the left
outlet by operating as explained before.
Once the handle has been put into
position, fit it in.
Replace the stopper at the right-hand
side
Outlet at the rear side
see fig. 4
Take the flexible duct out from the rear.

EN
Putting in place
It is not recommended to install your dryer
on a carpeted floor. If this cannot be
avoided, provide proper air circulation
underneath the appliance.
LEVELLING (FIG. 5)
The tumble dryer has to be in a
horizontal position, not sloping.
Levelling is essential to ensure proper
operation of the machine.
Adjust the feet using a spanner to ensure
that the dryer is level and check with a
spirit level (maximum angle 1.5°, that is
less than 1 cm).
ENVIRONMENT
Your tumble dryer releases hot air.
If it is placed near another appliance or
next to a cabinet, a minimum 1 cm space
should be provided in between to assist
ventilation.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION (Fig. 6)
The electrical installation must be made in
accordance to the standard.
Do not connect the appliance through an
extension but plug it directly into an
electrical socket.
In case of supply cord defect call for a
skilled person to replace it because
special tools are required.
Replacing the electric lead
WARNING: In the interests of safety,
the electrical supply lead should ONLY
be replaced by the manufacturer’s
after-sales staff or a similarly qualified
person.
We cannot be held liable for any
damage and possible repercussions
resulting from a faulty earthing, or the
absence of earthing of the appliance.
DOOR OPENING
Lift the cover to reach the drum.
Cover safety device : It is only possible
to switch on if the cover is properly
closed.
LAUNDRY LOADING
After your clothes have been washed and
spun, put the laundry loosely in the drum
without folding and squeezing.
Any items which have been treated
with a chemical stain remover or an
aerosol, must not be put into the
tumble dryer : inflammable products,
danger of explosion
If your laundry needs such treatment,
it must
absolutely
be done before
washing.
LINT FILTER CLEANING (fig. 7)
WARNING : After every drying process it
is necessery to clear the lint deposits on
the filter.
Do not clean it with water.
The lint filter, on the lefthand side of the
drum, has to be cleaned without any
water after every cycle. Never rinse it
with water at the end of the programme.
Remove the filter by pulling it upwards
Once the thin layer of lint has been
removed from the filter, put it back into
position by pushing it firmly downwards.
At the end of the programme, your
appliance stops at the position “STOP”.
The lamp ‘’filter cleaning’’ lights up to
remind you that you have to clean the filter.
The lamp ‘’on’’ goes out.
Using
Your machine conforms to European
Directives EC/73/23 (Low Voltage
directive) and EEC/89/336
(Electromagnetic Compatibility) as
modified by EEC/93/68.

SELECTION OF DRYING TIME
see picture 8
With the knob , select the required
drying time according to the type and the
load of laundry as well as to the spinning
efficiency of your washing machine.
This operation switches on your
appliance.
DRYING TIME
Recommended loads according to the
kind of the laundry are the following :
COTTON : Maximum 5 kg dry laundry
Minimum 1.5 kg dry laundry
SYNTHETIC : Maximum 2 kg dry laundry
Minimum 0.5 kg dry laundry
The drying times below include an 8- minute
cooling phase at the end of the cycle and
are given as a general indication, as they
vary according to :
- the desired result : dry, slightly damp,...
- the room temperature (the indications
correspond to 20°).
- the spinning efficiency.
For a spinning speed of 850 r.p.m. :
COTTON : 5 kg between 1h 30 and 1h 40
MIXED : 3.5 kg between 1h 30 and 1h 40
For a spinning speed of 500 r.p.m. :
MIXED : 2 kg between 50 and 60 mn.
DELICATE : 1 kg between 55 and 65 mn.
Lower spinning speeds mean relatively
longer drying times.
SWITCHING OFF
After the 8-minute coolong phase, the
knob will be in the “STOP” position.Turn it
to the off “O” position. As a precaution,
the supply cable should be disconnected.
COLD PROGRAMME
This position can be selected to freshen
clothes which have been kept for a long
time.
This programme can also be used as
supplementary drying for clothes which
have not been sufficiently dried at the end
of the normal programme.

complete reference number of your
appliance (model, type, serial number).
This information appears on your warranty
card and on the rating plate.
User tips
Better drying
Different laundry fabrics come from
different origins, so their reaction during
drying is very varied.
You can usually dry together items which
have been washed together, apart from
the fabrics which carry the “Do not
Tumble Dry” Symbol.
It is better to avoid :
• drying together light materials with thick
cotton items, the weight of the cotton will
crease the lighter fabrics
• overloading the drum : the drying time
will be longer ( Maximum : 1 wash load)
• ‘’overdrying’’ your laundry : this accentuates
creasing because the cotton is ‘’broken’’.
Non colourfast materials should be dried
separately.
Economical drying
In order to save energy, spin your laundry
very well : the higher the spin speed, the
shorter the drying time and the lower the
energy consumption.
Ensure a low room temperature.
If necessary, open the door or the window.
Particular care
Usually, all machine washable textile
fabrics can be dried in the tumble dryer,
with the exception of the following items :
• Woolen or silk materials
• Fabrics with chlorine fibres
( ex. : Thermolactyl*, Rhovyl*)
* registered trademark
• Any item with the forbidding symbol.
• Some particular items : net curtains,
nylon tights and stockings, bulky items
(like duvet, pillow,...etc.), items containing
foam rubber or plastic parts, metallic
parts, which could come off, plastic
covered textiles, any non-spun laundry.
Follow scrupulously the recommendations
on the fabric labels.
To keep your appliance in good working
order, we recommend that you use
