Environmentally friendly use of your
dryer
Your new Gaggenau® dryer is designed to use energy in
a highly efficient way to help reduce operating costs,
conserve resources and protect the environment.
To save energy, money and time, Gaggenau®
recommends the following:
▯
Spin the laundry thoroughly
Before drying, spin the laundry thoroughly in the
washing machine. Use the highest possible spin
speed for the type of laundry. Higher spin speeds
reduce the drying time and the energy consumption.
▯
Optimize load and selected drying program
–
Use the maximum amount of laundry for the
appropriate drying program.
–
Use automatic drying programs for the most
energy efficient use of your dryer. They perform
according to internal moisture and temperature
sensors delivering optimized efficiency and fabric
care.
–
Use the Time Dry program for touching up damp
loads or for small loads. This program will use
more energy than the automatic programs.
Note:
The energy rating of this dryer is based on the
Cotton program with the Dryness Level set to Dry (all
other option settings are off).
▯
Clean filter
Clean the lint filter before or after each drying
process.
▯
Air inlet on the dryer
Do not cover or allow any articles/items to restrict the
air inlet on the front of the dryer.
▯
Energy-saving mode
The display panel lighting goes out after a few minutes
and
A
(Start/Pause) flashes. To activate the display,
press any button.
Energy-saving mode is not activated if a program is
running.
If Wi-Fi is activated the appliance will not
automatically switch off (automatic switch-off function
is deactivated).

CAUTION
Do not install the dryer:
▯
outdoors,
▯
in an environment with dripping water,
▯
near flammable materials,
▯
in rooms which are at risk of freezing,
▯
in rooms which may contain gas or other fuels,
▯
on carpets.
Because many variables affect drying time we
recommend allowing as much free air space around your
dryer as possible for the shortest drying cycle time.
NOTICE
If your dryer is located in a closet, leave the closet door
open while the dryer is operating.
The recommended ambient temperatures (between 59-
86°F / 15-30°C) are for optimum drying times, outside of
this range drying times may be longer.
The installation surface (floor) must be level and
structurally sound. Using a bubble level and the height-
adjustable feet installed on the appliance, level the
appliance side to side and front to back.
