 This appliance was designed and manufactured in

compliance with current international safety standards. The

following information is provided for safety reasons and

must be read carefully.

General safety

• This tumble dryer must not be used by persons (including

children) with physical, sensory or mental impairments or

with little experience and knowledge of the appliance,

unless they are supervised or have been adequately

instructed on its use by the person responsible for their

safety.

• This tumble dryer is designed for domestic and non-

professional use.

• Do not touch the appliance while barefoot or with wet

hands or feet.

• Unplug the appliance by pulling on the plug, not the cord.

• Do not allow children near the appliance while it is in

function. After use, switch the appliance off and unplug it.

Keep the appliance door closed to prevent children using

it as a toy.

• Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not

play with the appliance.

• The appliance must be correctly installed and receive

adequate ventilation. The air intake on the front part of

the dryer and the air vents on the rear must never be

obstructed 

(see Installation).

• Never use the dryer on carpeting with high pile as this

may prevent air from entering the dryer from the base.

• Check whether the dryer is empty before loading it.

•

The rear part of the dryer may become very hot:

do not touch it while the appliance is in function.

• Do not use the dryer unless the filter, water container and

condenser are properly positioned 

(see Maintenance).

• Do not use liquid fabric softener in the dryer; add it to the

final rinse of the wash cycle.

• Do not overload the dryer (

see Laundry for the maximum

load sizes).

• Do not add items that are dripping wet.

• Tumble dry items only if they have been washed with

water and detergent, and have been rinsed and put

through a spin cycle. Drying items that have NOT been

washed with water may cause the risk of fire.

• Always read the instructions on the care label carefully

(see Laundry).

• Do not tumble dry items that have been treated with

chemical products.

• Never tumble dry items that are contaminated with

inflammable substances (cooking oil, acetone, alcohol,

petrol, kerosene, stain removers, turpentine, waxes, wax

removers and hairspray), unless they have been washed

in hot water with an extra amount of detergent.

• Do not tumble dry rubber, rubber-backed articles and

garments, cushions with foam rubber padding, latex

foam, rubber, plastic, shower caps, water-resistant

fabrics, nappy pants or liners, polyethylene and paper.

• Remove all objects from pockets, particularly lighters

(risk of explosion).

• Do not tumble dry large, excessively bulky items.

• Do not tumble dry acrylic fibres at high temperatures.

• Complete each programme with the relative cold drying

phase.

• Do not switch the tumble dryer off if items that are still

warm are inside it.

• Clean the filter after each use 

(see Care and maintenance).

• Empty the water container and put it back in place after

each use 

(see Care and maintenance).

• Clean the condenser unit regularly 

(see Care and maintenance)

.

• Do not allow lint to build up around the tumble dryer.

• Avoid climbing on the top of the dryer as this may

damage the appliance.

• Always comply with electrical regulations and

requirements 

(see Installation)

.

• Always purchase original accessories and spare parts

(see Assistance)

.

 WARNING: Never stop the dryer before the end of the

drying cycle unless all items have been quickly removed and

hung in order to dispel heat.

Information on recycling

and disposal 

As part of our continual commitment towards environmental

protection, we reserve the right to use recycled quality

components to reduce costs for our customers and to

minimise materials wastage.

• Disposing of the packaging materials: follow local

regulations to allow for recycling of packaging materials.

• In order to minimise the risk of injury to children, remove

the door and plug, then cut the power supply cord flush

with the appliance.   Dispose of these parts separately to

prevent the appliance from being connected to a power

supply socket.

Disposal of old household appliances

European Directive 2002/96/EC concerning Waste

Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) states

that household appliances should not be disposed of

using the normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted

appliances should be collected separately in order to

optimise the cost of re-using and recycling materials

comprising the machine, while preventing potential damage

to public health and the environment. The crossed-out

wheeled bin symbol appears on all products to remind

owners of the obligations regarding separate waste

collection.

Owners should contact their local authorities or appliance

dealers for further information concerning the correct

disposal of household appliances.

Saving energy and respecting the

environment

• Wring out items before tumble drying them to remove

the maximum amount of water possible (if they are

previously washed in a washing machine, select a spin

cycle). This ensures that energy is saved during tumble

drying.

• Always use the tumble dryer at full load to save energy:

single items and small loads may take longer to dry.

• Clean the filter at the end of each cycle to reduce energy

consumption costs 

(see Care and maintenance)

.
