RUNNING A PROGRAMME
Find more information in the separate Instructions for Use.
Sort laundry according to
care symbols
Do not tumble dry
Suitable for tumble drying –
at low temperatures
Suitable for tumble drying
Sort laundry by:
Material thickness: whenever there is greater load than the dryer can handle, separate
laundry according to weight (e.g. dry towels and thin underwear separately).
Type of material: cotton (linen); synthetic textiles (easy care).
Degree of drying: cupboard dry, iron dry etc.
Do not tumble dry: nylon stockings, delicate embroidery, fabrics with metallic decorations.
Preparing laundry
Check that all fastenings are closed and that pockets are empty.
Please ensure that there are no cigarette lighters in the laundry.
Turn laundry inside out.
Loading dryer
Place laundry loosely in the drum to achieve equal drying throughout.
Then close the door.
Selecting programme
Select the drying programme required by turning the programme selector knob (for
information, refer to programme table).
If you do not start the programme soon after having made your choice, the dryer will switch
off after a few minutes.
To switch the dryer on again turn the programme selector knob to “Off” (“0”) and afterwards
to the desired programme.
Selecting options
(if available)
Select the option required by pressing the corresponding button.
The indicator lamp above the relevant button lights up to confirm your selection.
A fast blinking lamp indicates a wrong selection is made (incompatible options).
Press the button again to cancel the option.
Starting dryer
The drying programme is started by pressing the “Start (Pause)” button.
The relevant indicator lamp lights up.
Changing programme selection: If the programme selected is changed during drying, the
dryer stops.
The “Start (Pause)” indicator lamp flashes.
To operate the new programme, press the “Start (Pause)” button again.
Interrupting programme: To interrupt a drying cycle, press the “Start (Pause)button and
open the door.
Wait at least 5 minutes, to allow the laundry to cool down, before you unload the dryer.
For your safety the drying cycle stops automatically if you open the door.
To restart, after door opening, close the door and press the “Start (Pause)” button again.
Warning: Never stop a tumble dryer before the end of the drying cycle, unless all items are
quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.
Programme end –
unloading dryer
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
Set the programme selector knob to “Off” (“0”).
Cleaning the door filter after every cycle: open door, pull door filter up and out of machine and open it. Brush lint using a soft
brush or your fingertips. Close door filter and push firmly back into place.
Emptying water container: pull container out by the handle and empty. Replace the container when empty by pushing it
completely back into place.
Please note: Only use additives/plastic items specified as dryer safe, and thoroughly rinse items that have been treated with
stain remover in plenty of water before drying. Never dry rubber objects or objects stained with vegetable oils in the dryer.
The Manufacturer is not liable for any damage to laundry resulting from inadequate or incorrect fabric care instructions which
have been provided with the garment or article.

Reset
During the selection phase of the
programme, pressing this button will switch
off all settings of selected options.
During running drying cycle the pressing of
the button will stop the cycle and set the
dryer back in selection mode.
The button needs to be pressed for
3 seconds.
Key lock
For child protection reasons, this option can
be used to lock all functions of the user
interface.
To activate this option, the button needs to
be pressed for 3 seconds, until the “key”
symbol at the display appears.
To deactivate this option, press the button
until the “key” symbol disappears.
The key lock function is still active even when
the selector knob is turned to “off” position
or the door is opened.
The function has to be deactivated.
Dry time adjustment
Turn the programme selector knob to
“Drying Time” position.
Press the button “Drying time” to select the
duration of cycle in ten minutes steps up to
180 minutes.
Gentle
Selecting this option will reduce the drying
temperature.
This option cannot be selected when the
option “Rapid” is selected.
Anticrease
This option can be chosen to reduce
wrinkling, when the laundry is not unloaded
directly after end of the cycle.
The drum turns from time to time for
maximum 12 hours.
It can be interrupted at any time by switching
off the dryer.
This option deactivates the “Buzzer”
function, if it is activated.
Finish in
With this function you can postpone your
programme to complete at a later time: press
the button to select in how many hours the
programme shall be finished.
Thus, it allows you to have your laundry
ready at a particular time and to profit
from more favourable energy rates during
the night, for example.
The “Finish in” function can be selected
in full hour time segments (1 to 24 h).
When you press the button, the shortest
possible time will be displayed; keep on
pressing the button to loop through all the
available times.
To remove it again, set the index of the
programme selector knob to the “Off”
“(0)” position.
When you have selected the desired
“Finish in” time, press “Start” – the
countdown will begin.
During the countdown, you can still
modify the option setting (select or
deselect options).
Sometimes the programme may finish
before the selected “Finish in” time has
expired (e.g. for small loads).
In this case, the dryer will tumble the
laundry regularly to keep it fresh, until the
selected “Finish in” time has expired.
During tumbling, the display will show an
animation.
The tumbling phase can be stopped at
any time either by pressing any button, by
rotating the programme selector or by
opening the door.
A
dditional reverse
With this option the drum will turn during the
drying cycle more often against the main
turning direction than in a normal cycle.
This will improve the evenness of laundry
drying.
