1.7 - VENTING THE AIR

The hot air coming from your appliance must be

vented away, either:

— Directly to the room if it is well-ventilated

(Fig.

2.4.1).

— Via a permanent connection on the wall. The out-

let nozzle must be situated at a height of 30 cm to

avoid condensation forming in the vent hose. The

slats in the outlet nozzle must be at least 15mm

apart to avoid clogging

(Fig. 2.4.2 ).

— The diameter of the passage through the wall

must be at least the same as the vent hose’s exter-

nal diameter.

— Temporarily by putting the end of the hose out of

an open window

(Fig. 2.4.2 ).

— The vent hose must be installed horizontally or

upwards and must never hang down. It should

contain as few bends as possible (2 at most)

(Fig.

2.4.2 ).

— It must not be increased in length. Grills with fly

screens should not be used.

— Reverse the positions of the lock and the

cover on the machine’s front face.

— Refit the door on the hinge .

— Reverse the positions of the bolt .

— Reverse the hinge and fasten it back on.

During the laboress to disassembly and

reassembly of the door, you must take the

door horizontally.

1.6 - MODIFYING THE DOOR OPENING DIREC-

TION

(Fig. 2.2 - 2.3)

You can alter the direction the door opens as fol-

lows:

— Remove the 4 screws in the front panel holding

the hinges and .

ENERGY SAVINGS

— Spin your textiles at high speeds; the residual

dampness will be low, as will your energy consump-

tion.

— Place the maximum load in your machine; this will

optimize the energy used. When doing so, comply

with the indications on volume provided in this ins-

truction manual.

— Clean the filter after each drying cycle.

— Swich off your tumble dryer at the cycle ends.

NOTES:

— A power failure cancels the current program. In

this case, therefore, you have to reset all the pro-

gramming operations.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

The appliance’s packaging material is recyclable.

Help recycle it and protect the environment

by dropping it off in the municipal

receptacles provided for this purpose.

Your appliance also contains a great

amount of recyclable material. It is marked

with this label to indicate that the used appliances

should not be mixed with other waste. The

appliance recycling will be done in compliance with

European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical

and Electronic Equipment.

Contact your town hall or your retailer for the used

appliance collection points closest to your home.

1.2 - APPLIANCE’S SURROUNDINGS

— Leave a gap of at least 1 cm around the device

when you install it to facilitate air circulation.

— If you have installed your device in a small, closed

room a door or window should be left open whilst

the machine is running.

1.3 - LEVELLING

(Fig. 1.2)

Screw in or screw out one or more of the

adjustable feet to ensure that the machine is

horizontal and doesn't rock, depending on how level

your floor is.

1.4 - BUILT-IN INSTALLATION

6 - TROUBLESHOOTING

Some incidents may arise when you are using your dryer. Here are the points you should check:

Fault: Check whether:

The dryer does not start: - the plug is in the socket.

- the door is properly closed.

- the “Start” key was pressed (if the appliance was

not in pause).

The drying times are too long: - the filter in the drum is clogged with fluff.

- the laundry has been spun enough beforehand

(500rpm minimum, but spinning at 850rpm provides

better drying times).

- the vent hose has too many bends.

- the air inlets and outlets are unobstructed enough to

ensure correct air circulation.

- the laudry choice selected matches the type of

items in the drum.

The laundry is too damp: - the filter in the drum is clogged with fluff.

- the type of laundry has been selected correctly or if

the drying time is good enough.

The laundry is too dry, too creased: - the drying time selected is too long: the drying time

is better to be too short than too long: this avoids

the laundry becoming too dry and difficult to iron.

The items are unevenly dried: - the types of textiles in the load are too different (e.g.

sheets together with jeans).

- the laundry has been laid correctly ‘unfolded’ in the

dryer.

- the drum is not overloaded.

The synthetic items are loaded with

static electricity:

- the laundry has been dried too much.

- you have used softener during washing. By using

this product, you can reduce most of the problems

with static electricity.
