Steam
Drying - Steam Refresh
Steam programmes for unwrinkling or refreshing
– Your dryer has unwrinkling and refreshing programmes that can be used for removing
odours and minimising creasing in dry fabrics. Steam smooths and freshens up items of
clothing.
– Sorting the laundry according to size, weight, fabric and colour is necessary.
– Only use Short spin/Refresh for fabrics with the same properties.
– During steam generation (required), additional noises may occur.
– The result of refreshing and unwrinkling may vary depending on the type of fabric, size of
the load and programme selected.
– After unwrinkling or refreshing, all fabrics must be removed immediately and hung crease-
free on a hanger or a washing line for 15 minutes.
Programmes
Please observe the treatment symbols and manufacturer's instructions on the fabrics.
Do not use Short spin/Refresh for fabrics made of wool, leather, containing metal or
wooden parts as well as wax and oil jackets!
Do not use any dryer cleaning sets!

circumstances.
Mains connection
see safety information
a
page 13.
– Connect to an AC earthed socket. If in doubt, have the socket checked by a specialist.
– The mains voltage and the voltage shown on the rating plate (
a
Page 11
) must be the same.
– The connected load and necessary fuse protection are specified on the rating plate.
Converting the installed load
Note the fuse protection of the socket.

Laundry is not dried correctly
or is still too damp.
After the end of the programme, warm laundry feels damper than it actually is.
Spread the laundry out and allow the heat to disperse.
Finely adjust the dryness level – this extends the drying time but does not
increase the temperature. Your laundry will become drier.
Select a programme with a longer drying time or increase the drying level. This
does not increase the temperature.
Select a time programme for extended drying of laundry that is still damp.
If you have exceeded the maximum load for the programme, the laundry may
not be dried correctly.
Clean the moisture sensor in the drum. A fine layer of limescale may adversely
affect the performance of the sensors and your washing will not dry properly.
Drying has been interrupted as a result of a power cut, because the condensate
container is full or because the maximum drying time has been exceeded.
