BEFORE FIRST USE

Rear drum packaging is

removed automatically when

dryer is activated for the first

time. Possible to hear some

noise.

Before you use the appliance for the first

time:
• Clean the tumble dryer drum with a

moist cloth.

• Start a short programme (e.g. 30

minutes) with moist laundry.

At the beginning of the

drying cycle (first 3-5 min)

there could be a slightly

higher sound level. This is

due to the compressor

starting up. This is normal for

compressor powered

appliances such as

refrigerators and freezers.
