Installation

15 mm

Where to install the tumble dryer

If the dryer is installed below a worktop,

ensure there are 10 mm

between the upper panel

of the dryer and any

objects above it, and 15

mm between the sides

of the machine and the

walls or furniture units

adjacent to it. This en-

sures adequate air cir-

culation. Make sure the

air inlets on the rear panel are not blocked or

obstructed.

Ventilation

This appliance gently dries laundry by taking in cold, clean

and relatively dry air, heating it and passing it through the

fabric. To facilitate the drying process, damp air is expelled at

the rear, through a ventilation hose. When the dryer is in use,

there has to be adequate ventilation to avoid a back flow

of gases into the room from appliances burning other fuels,

including open fires.

Mobile ventilation system

When using the tumble dryer with the mobile ventilation

system, a ventilation hose must be connected. The hose

should be securely fastened to the ventilation hole at the

rear of the appliance (see “Description of the tumble dryer”).

We recommend the hose is connected to an outlet near

the tumble dryer, if possible. If it cannot be installed in a

permanent spot, the tumble dryer will still function perfectly

well if the ventilation hose is passed through a partially-

opened window.

Make sure you do not point the ventilation hose towards the

air inlet, which is located on the rear of the appliance.

The ventilation hose should not exceed a maximum length

of 2.4 metres; it should also be shaken frequently to remove

any fluff, dust or water deposits inside it. Make sure you do

not crush the hose.

Fixed ventilation system

We recommend the ventilation hose is connected to a

ventilation system for windows or doors, available from the

retailer which originally sold you the appliance or from your

local spare parts stockist.

Wall ventilation hole

1. Leave an opening in the wall to the left of the tumble dryer

installation site.

2. Make the hose as short and straight as possible, in order

to prevent any moisture from condensing and leaking back

into the appliance.

3. The hole in the wall must also be straight and pointing

downwards, so that the flow of air coming out is not

impeded.

Areas A and B should be checked frequently, to prevent

the accumulation of fluff or debris, particularly if the tumble

dryer is used very often. The hose adaptor must be fitted

correctly, in order to prevent damp air from coming back into

the room.

Window ventilation hole

The ventilation hole should be

directly behind the dryer in order

to keep the hose as short as

possible.

Make sure you do not push the

tumble dryer too far backwards,

as this could lead to the

ventilation hose being crushed,

bent or even disconnected.

There should be no cuts, kinks or “U”-shaped bends

in the hose, as these could impede ventilation or trap

condensation.

The end of the hose must be facing downwards, in order to

prevent the hot, damp air from forming condensation in the

room or the tumble dryer.

Make sure that the tumble dryer is adequately ventilated,

and that the end of the ventilation hose is not pointing

towards the air inlet pipe on the

rear of the appliance.

The ventilation hose must

always be fitted to ensure

optimum performance.

Make sure that the ventilation

hose and the air inlet vents are

not obstructed or blocked.

Do not let the tumble dryer

recirculate exhaust air.

Improper use of the tumble dryer may result in fire hazards.

Ventilation through an open window

The air emitted by the tumble dryer must not be expelled in

the same duct as used for the fumes produced by different

appliances which burn gas or

other fuels.

Do not discharge the exhaust

air into an extraction system

or any duct with an extractor

fan. This will affect the way the

thermal controls operate and

can result in a fire hazard.

Make sure that the

room in which the tumble dryer is installed

is not damp, and that it is adequately

ventilated.

We do not recommend that the dryer is

installed in a cupboard but the dryer must

never be installed behind a lockable door, a

sliding door or a door with a hinge on the

opposite side to that of the dryer door.

The appliance must be installed with the

rear surface placed against a wall.

Electrical connections

Before plugging the appliance into the so-

cket, check the following:

Make sure your hands are dry.

The socket must have an earth connection.

The socket must be able to withstand the

machine’s maximum power output as indica-

ted on the rating plate (see Description of the

tumble dryer).

The power supply voltage must fall within

the values indicated on the rating plate (see

Description of the tumble dryer).

Do not use extension leads. Do not pull the

power supply cable. Do not use multiple plug

adaptors if the appliance is fitted with a plug.

For appliances with fitted plug, if the plug is

not suitable for you socket outlet, contact a

qualified technician.

The dryer must not be installed outdoors,

even if the space is sheltered.

Once installed, the dryer’s electrical wire

and plug must be within reach.

The power cord must not be bent or

squashed.

If the plug being replaced is a non-

rewirable type, then the cut-off plug must be

disposed of safely. DO NOT leave it where it

can be inserted into a socket and create a

shock hazard.

The electric cord must be regularly

checked. If the supply cord is damaged, it

must be replaced by service agent. (see

Service).

The manufacturer denies any

responsibility should any of these rules not be

followed.

If in doubt about any of the above

consult a qualified electrician.

Levelling the tumble dryer

The tumble dryer should be installed level in order to

operate correctly.

After installing the tumble dryer in its permanent position,

make sure it is level; check its side-to-side levelling first,

followed by front-to-back.

If the tumble dryer is not perfectly level, use a wooden block

to support it while you adjust the two front feet, up or down

as necessary.

Before you start your dryer

Once the tumble dryer is installed, clean the inside of the drum

before operating it and remove any dirt accumulated during

transportation.

Maximum load sizes: maximum 7,5 kg

Warnings

! This appliance has been designed and built according to

international safety standards. These warnings are given for

safety reasons and must be followed carefully.

General safety

•This appliance can be used by children

aged from 8 years and above and

persons with reduced physical, sensory or

mental capabilities or lack of experience

and knowledge if they have been given

supervision or instruction concerning use of

the appliance in a safe way and understand

the hazards involved.

• This tumble dryer has been designed for

home, and not professional, use.

• Do not touch the appliance while barefoot

or with wet hands or feet.

• Unplug the machine by pulling on the plug,

not the cord.

•Children should be supervised to ensure

that they do not play with the dryer.

•Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be

made by children without supervision.

•Children of less than 3 years should be

kept away from the appliance unless

continuously supervised.

• The appliance must be installed correctly

and have proper ventilation. The air intake

vents behind the machine, the outlet

vents and the vent tube should never be

obstructed (see Installation).

• Never direct the vent tube outlet towards

the air intake at the back of the machine.

• Never allow the tumble dryer to recycle

exhaust air.

• Never use the dryer on carpeting where the

pile height would prevent air from entering

the dryer from the base.

• Check to see if the dryer is empty before

loading it.

•

The back of the dryer could become very

hot. Never touch it while in use.

• Do not use the dryer unless the filter, is

securely in place (see Maintenance).

• Do not overload the dryer (see Laundry for

maximum loads).

• Do not load items that are dripping wet.

• Carefully check all instructions on clothing

labels (see Laundry).

• Do not tumble dry large, very bulky items.

• Do not tumble dry acrylic fibres at high

temperatures.

• Do not turn off the dryer when there are still

warm items inside.

• Clean the filter after each use (see

Maintenance).

• Do not allow lint to collect around the dryer.

• Never climb on top of the dryer. It could

result in damage.

• Always follow electrical standards and

requirements (see Installation).

• Always buy original spare parts and

accessories (see Service).

To minimise the risk of fire in your tumble

dryer, the following should be observed:

• Tumble dry items only if they have been

washed with detergent and water, rinsed

and been through the spin cycle. It is a fire

hazard to dry items that HAVE NOT been

washed with water.

• Do not dry garments that have been treated

with chemical products.

• Do not tumble dry items that have

been spotted or soaked with vegetable

or cooking oils, this constitutes a fire

hazard. Oil-affected items can ignite

spontaneously,especially when exposed to

heat sources such as a tumble dryer. The

items become warm, causing an oxidisation

reaction with the oil, Oxidisation creates

heat. If the heat cannot escape, items can

become hot enough to catch fire. Piling,

stacking or storing oil-effected items can

prevent heat from escaping and so create

a fire hazard.If it is unavoidable that fabrics

containing vegetable or cooking oil or those

that have been contaminated with hair care

products be placed in a tumble dryer they

should first be washed with extra detergent

- this will reduce, but not eliminate the

hazard. They should not be removed from

the dryer and piled or stacked while hot.

• Do not tumble dry items that have

previously been cleaned in or washed in,

soaked in or soiled with petrol/gasoline,

dry cleaning solvents or other flammable

or explosive substances. Highly flammable

substances commonly used in domestic

environments including cooking oil,

acetone, denatured alcohol, kerosene,

spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax

removers. Ensure these items have been

washed in hot water with an extra amount

of detergent before being dried in the

tumble dryer.

• Do not tumble dry items containing foam

rubber (also known as latex foam), or

similarly textured rubber like materials.

Foam rubber materials can, when heated,

produce fire by spontaneous combustion.

• Fabric softener or similar products should

not be used in a tumble dryer to eliminate

the effects of static electricity unless the

practice is specifically recommended by the

manufacturer of the fabric softener product.

• Do not tumble dry undergarments that

contain metal reinforcements eg. bras

with metal reinforcing wires. Damage to

the tumble dryer can result if the metal

reinforcements come loose during drying.

• Do not tumble dry rubber, plastic articles

such as shower caps or babies waterproof

covers, polythene or paper.

• Do not tumble dry rubber backed articles,

clothes fitted with foam rubber pads,

pillows, galoshes and rubber coated tennis

shoes.

• Remove all objects from pockets such as

lighters and matches.

WARNING: Never stop the dryer before the

end of the drying cycle unless all items are

quickly removed and spread out so that the

heat is dissipated.

Save energy and respect the environment

• Wring out all items to eliminate excess water before

tumble drying (if you use a washing machine first, select

a high spin cycle). Doing this will save time and energy

during drying.

• Always dry full loads - you save energy: single items or

small loads take longer to dry.

• Clean the filter after each use to contain energy

consumption costs (see Maintenance).

Care and maintenance

Disconnecting the power supply

! Disconnect the dryer when not in use or

during cleaning and maintenance operations.

Cleaning the filter after each cycle

The filter is a fundamental component of the

dryer: its function is to collect lint and fluff that

form during drying.

Clean the filter once drying is completed, by

rinsing it under running water or cleaning it

with a vacuum cleaner. Should the filter be-

come clogged, the flow of air inside the dryer

will be seriously hampered: drying times be-

comes longer and more energy is consumed.

Moreover, the dryer may become damaged.

The filter is located

behind of the dryer seal

(see Picture).

Removing the filter:

1. Pull the filter’s plastic

handle upwards (see

Picture).

2. Clean the fluff off

the filter and replace it

correctly. Ensure that

the filter is pushed fully

home.

! Do not use the dryer unless

the filter has been replaced in

its holder.

Checking the drum after each cycle

Rotate the drum manually to remove smaller items (handker-

chiefs) that could have been left inside the dryer.

Cleaning the drum

! Avoid using abrasives, steel wool or stainless steel cleaning

agents to clean the drum.

A coloured film may appear on the stainless steel drum

surface: it may be caused by a combination of water and/or

cleaning agents such as fabric conditioners. This coloured

film does not affect the dryer’s performance.

Cleaning the tumble dryer

• The external metal and plastic parts and the rubber parts

can be cleaned with the aid of a damp cloth.

• Periodically check the vent hose and all other parts of the

venting system and remove any accumulations of fluff and

lint.

! Do not use solvents or abrasives.

! Have the dryer checked regularly by authorised technical

personnel in order to ensure that the electrical and mechani-

cal parts work safely (see Assistance).

How to carry out a

drying cycle

Programme chart

Special/Sport/Partial Programmes

Eco Time Programme

This programme is for drying small cotton loads in a short time, thereby optimising energy consumption. Suitable for loads of up to

2 kg.

We recommend checking whether garments are labelled with the

symbol and to turn them inside out before drying them.

! The duration of this program will depend on the size of the load and the spin speed used in your washer.

Wool Programme

This programme is specific for items that withstand tumble drying and are labelled with the

symbol. It is suitable for loads of up to

1 kg (about 3 jerseys). We recommend turning the garments inside out before drying them. This programme lasts about 60 minu-

tes, although it may last longer depending on the size and density of the load and on the spin speed used during the wash cycle.

Garments dried with this programme are usually ready to be worn, although the edges of heavier garments may be slightly damp.

Leave them to dry naturally, as an additional drying process may damage them.

! Unlike other materials, the shrinking process in wool is irreversible, i.e. the garment does not resume its original dimension and

shape.

! This programme is not suited for acrylic items.

Sport Intensive Programme

This programme is designed for safely drying garments such as tracksuits and shorts bearing the

symbol. It is ideal for clothes

which do not need to be dried fully. We suggest turning garments inside out before drying them.

! The duration of this program will depend on the size of the load and the spin speed used in your washer.

Sport Light Programme

This programme is designed for safely drying garments such as tracksuits and shorts bearing the symbol. It is ideal for those

garments that do not need to be dried fully or which have to be ironed. We suggest turning garments inside out before drying them.

! The duration of this program will depend on the size of the load and the spin speed used in your washer.

Special Shoes Programme

This programme is specific for drying sports shoes. The shoes must have been previously washed and spun at a minimum spin

speed of 400 revolutions.

A specific shoe rack is provided and must be used, otherwise the dryer will be damaged if shoes are dried in the drum. Remove the

filter from its holder on the front part of the dryer and position the shoe rack.

Place shoelaces inside the shoes then load with the tips of the shoes facing downwards and the soles frontwards.

Drying times vary according to the shape and type of the shoe. If the shoes are not completely dry at the end of the programme,

restart the programme.

! Do not dry shoes that have gel or flashing lights inside them. Only dry shoes made of synthetic material or rope. Once the pro-

gramme ends, remove the shoe rack and replace the filter into its holder.

Refresh

A short programme suitable for refreshing fibres and garments through the emission of cool air. It lasts about 20 minutes.

! As this is not a drying programme, it is not to be used for garments that are still wet.

Timed drying cycle (30’ - 60’ - 90’ - 120’ - 150’)

This programme can be used instead of the automatic programmes when you desire setting a time for the drying cycle. It is ideal for

drying damp laundry with the low heat setting or for small loads.

The duration of the timed drying cycle to be selected depends on the size of the load, on the fabric to be dried (see Table) and the

spin speed used in your washer.

The cold drying cycle runs during the final minutes of the programme.

Delay start

The start of some programmes (see Programmes and options) may be delayed up to 9 hours. Press the button repeatedly to enter

the desired delay time. Before setting a delayed start, make sure that the filter is clean.

Post Anti-Crease

When this option is selected, the drum rotates garments at intervals after the cool tumble cycle has ended, in order to avoid creases

forming on garments if they cannot be immediately removed at the end of the programme. During this phase, the indicator light is

turned on.

Pre Anti-Crease

When this option is selected in addition to the “Delay start” option, the drum rotates garments at intervals during the delay period to

avoid creases forming.

High Heat

When a drying time is selected, pressing this button sets a high heat drying and the indicator light above the button lights up. The

timed programmes are pre-set to high heat.

! Not all options are available on all programmes (see Programmes and options).

Opening the door

If the door is opened (or the START/PAUSE button is pressed) while a programme is running, the dryer stops and the following may

occur:

• The START/PAUSE button flashes orange.

• When a delayed start is running, the delay countdown continues. It is necessary to press the START/PAUSE button to resume the

“Delay start” programme. One of the “Delay start” indicator light flashes to signal the delay time entered.

• It is necessary to press the START/PAUSE button to resume the programme. The progress indicator lights signal the running pha-

se and the START/PAUSE indicator light stops flashing and turns green.

• During the post anti-crease phase, the programme ends. Pressing the START/PAUSE button reactivates a new programme from

the beginning.

• By turning the Programme selection knob, a new programme is selected and the START/PAUSE indicator light flashes green. This

procedure can be used to select the Cool tumble programme to cool garments if they are judged to be dry enough.

Press the START/PAUSE button to start the new programme.

Note: If you have a power cut, switch off the power or remove the plug. When power is restored, plug in the machine, press and

hold the ON/OFF button until the dryer reactivates, then press Start/Pause button.

Sorting laundry

• Check the symbols on the care labels of the various gar-

ments to verify whether the garments can be safely tumble

dried.

• Sort laundry according to the type of fabric.

• Empty all pockets and check for loose buttons.

• Close zips and hooks and fasten belts and strings without

tightening them.

• Wring out garments to remove the maximum amount of

water possible.

Do not load the dryer when garments are dripping wet.

Maximum load sizes

Do not overload the drum.

The following values indicate the weight of dry garments:

Natural fibres: maximum kg

Synthetic fibres: maximum kg

! Do not overload the dryer as this may result is reduced

drying performance.

Care labels

Always check the care labels, especially when placing

garments in the tumble dryer for the first time. Below are the

most commonly used symbols:

May be tumble dried.

Do not tumble dry.

Tumble dry – high heat.

Tumble dry – low heat.

Drying times

Drying times are approximate and may vary depending on

the following:

• Amount of water retained by items after the spin cycle:

towels and delicate items retain a lot of water.

• Fabrics: items of the same fabric, but with different texture

and thickness may have different drying times.

• Amount of laundry: single items and small loads may take

longer to dry.

• Drying: if items are to be ironed, they can be removed

from the dryer while still slightly damp. Items that require

complete drying can be left longer.

• Heat setting.

• Temperature of the room: the lower the temperature of the

room, the longer it will take for the dryer to dry clothing.

• Bulk: certain bulky items require special care during the

drying process. We suggest removing these items and

replacing them in the dryer once they have been shaken

out: repeat this procedure several times during the course

of the drying cycle.

! Do not over-dry items.

All fabrics contain natural dampness which helps to keep

them soft and fluffy.

The drying times provided refer to the automatic Cupboard

dry programmes.

The Timed drying settings are also indicated to enable you

to select the most suitable timed option.

Troubleshooting

Possible causes / Solutions:

• The plug has not been inserted far enough into the socket to make contact.

• There has been a power cut.

• The the fuse has blown. Try connecting another appliance to the same socket.

• If an extension cord is used, try connecting the dryer plug directly into the socket.

• The door has not been closed properly.

• The programme has not been set correctly (see How to carry out a drying cycle).

• The

START/PAUSE button has not been pressed (see How to carry out a drying

cycle).

• A delayed start time has been set (see Programmes and options).

Où installer le sèche-linge

Si vous installez cet

appareil sous un plan

de travail, faites en sorte

de laisser un espace de

10 mm entre le dessus

de l’appareil et tout

autre objet sur ou au-

dessus de celui-ci, et

un espace de 15 mm

entre ses côtés et les

éléments d’ameublement ou les murs latéraux.

Ceci a pour objectif d’assurer une ventilation

convenable.

Ventilation

Cet appareil électroménager sèche le linge grâce à

l’émission d’air froid, propre et relativement sec. L’air est

ensuite réchauffé et passe à travers les tissus qui sont ainsi

délicatement séchés. Pour faciliter le séchage, l’air humide

est expulsé au niveau de la face arrière dans un tuyau

d’aération. Il est essentiel que l’environnement dans lequel le

sèche-linge est utilisé soit suffisamment aéré afin de pouvoir

éviter le recyclage des gaz brûlés.

Système d’aération mobile

En cas d’utilisation du sèche-linge avec le système d’aération

mobile, l’installation d’un tuyau d’aération est nécessaire. Le

tuyau est solidement fixé à l’orifice de ventilation postérieur

du sèche-linge (voir le chapitre Description du produit). Dans

la mesure du possible, il est conseillé de relier le tuyau à la

décharge se trouvant à proximité du sèche-linge. Même

s’il n’est pas installé définitivement, le sèche-linge donnera

d’excellents résultats lorsque le tuyau d’aération est orienté

vers une fenêtre entrouverte.

Veiller à ne pas orienter le tuyau d’aération vers la prise d’air

qui se trouve à l’arrière du sèche-linge.

Le tuyau d’aération ne doit pas dépasser les 2,4 mètres. Il

doit être régulièrement secoué avant de retirer les dépôts

éventuels de déchets de laine, de poussière et l’eau. Faites

attention à ne pas marcher sur le tuyau.

Système d’aération fixe

Il est conseillé de raccorder le tuyau d’aération à l’un des

systèmes d’aération pour fenêtre ou porte disponible chez

le revendeur où a eu lieu l’achat ou chez le revendeur le plus

proche.

Trou d’aération mural

1. Laisser une ouverture dans le

mur situé à gauche du lieu

d’installation du sèche-linge.

2. Faire en sorte que le tuyau

soit le plus court et le plus droit

possible de sorte à éviter que la

condensation soit refoulée vers

le sèche-linge.

3. De même, le trou aménagé

dans la paroi doit être droit et en

15 mm

pente de sorte à faciliter l’évacuation de l’air.

Les zones A et B doivent faire l’objet d’un contrôle fréquent afin

d’éviter la formation de boules de laine ou de déchets, surtout

en cas d’utilisation fréquente du sèche-linge. L’adaptateur pour

le tuyau d’aération doit être placé correctement de sorte à

éviter que l’air humide puisse rentrer dans la pièce.

Trou d’aération sur fenêtre

Le trou d’aération devrait se

trouver directement derrière le

sèche-linge de façon à ce que le

câble soit le plus court possible.

! Veiller à ne pas placer le

sèche-linge trop en retrait car il

risquerait d’écraser, plier voire

débrancher le tuyau d’aération.

! Le tuyau doit être dépourvu de

coupures, d’étranglements ou

de courbes en U susceptibles

d’empêcher la ventilation ou favoriser la condensation.

Aération par une fenêtre ouverte

L’extrémité du tuyau doit être

orientée vers le bas de sorte à

éviter que l’air chaud humide

puisse se condenser dans la

pièce ou le sèche-linge.

S’assurer que le sèche-linge

est suffisamment ventilé et

que l’extrémité du tuyau

d’aération n’est pas tournée

vers le conduit de la prise d’air

postérieure.

Pour un fonctionnement correct du sèche-linge, il est

indispensable de toujours installer le tuyau d’aération.

Vérifier si le tuyau d’aération et les conduites des prises d’air

ne sont pas obstrués.

Éviter que le sèche-linge puisse recycler l’air vicié.

Une utilisation inadéquate du sèche-linge risque de

provoquer un incendie.

Ne pas évacuer l’air dégagé par le sèche-linge dans le

conduit d’évacuation des fumées émises par des appareils

brûlant du gaz ou d’autres combustibles.

Ne pas éliminer l’air d’évacuation à travers un système

d’aspiration ou des ventilateurs canalisés pour éviter de

compromettre le fonctionnement du contrôle thermique,

entraînant un risque d’incendie.

Vérifier que l’environnement où le sèche-

linge est placé est dépourvu d’humidité et

permet le renouvellement de l’air.

Il n’est pas conseillé de placer le sèche-

linge à l’intérieur d’une armoire; par ailleurs,

ne jamais l’installer derrière une porte qui se

ferme à clé, une porte coulissante ou une

porte munie d’une charnière sur le côté

opposé du portillon du sèche-linge.

La surface arrière de l’appareil doit être

placée contre un mur.

Installation

Raccordement électrique

Assurez-vous des points suivants avant de

brancher la fiche de l’appareil dans la prise

de mains:

Assurez-vous d’avoir les mains sèches.

La prise de courant doit être reliée à la terre.

La prise de courant doit pouvoir supporter

la puissance maximale de la machine, qui

est indiquée sur la plaque signalétique de

l’appareil (voir Description du sèche-linge).

La tension électrique doit appartenir à la

gamme de valeurs indiquée sur la plaque

signalétique de l’appareil (voir Description

du sèche-linge).

N’utilisez pas de rallonges. Ne tirez pas

sur le câble d’alimentation. N’utilisez pas

de multiprises si l’appareil est muni d’une

fiche. Pour les appareils dotés d’une fiche,

si la fiche n’est pas adaptée à votre prise

de courant, contactez un technicien

qualifié.

Le sèche-linge ne doit pas être utilisé à

l’extérieur, même si l’espace en question est

abrité.

Une fois le sèche-linge installé, le cordon

d’alimentation et la fiche doivent être

d’accès facile.

Le cordon d’alimentation ne doit pas être

courbé ou écrasé.

Si la fiche à remplacer est de type

incorporée, il faut l’éliminer conformément aux

consignes de sécurité. Ne la laissez jamais

dans un endroit où elle peut être branchée à

une prise et provoquer ainsi un choc électrique.

Le câble électrique doit être contrôlé

périodiquement. Si le câble est endommagé,

il faut le faire remplacer par service après-

vente (voir Service après-vente).

Le fabricant rejette toute responsabilité

en cas de non-respect de toutes ou partie

de ces règles.

En cas de doute au sujet des points

précédents, consultez un électricien qualifié.

Placement du sèche-linge de niveau

Le sèche-linge doit être installé sur une surface plane pour

un fonctionnement optimal.

Après avoir installé le sèche-linge dans sa position définitive,

contrôler s’il est placé de niveau dans le sens de la largeur

dans un premier temps et ensuite sur la profondeur.

Si le sèche-linge n’est pas de niveau, utiliser une cale de

bois pour le maintenir pendant le réglage des deux pieds

avant jusqu’à atteindre une position adéquate.

Informations préliminaires

Une fois que vous avez installé votre sèche-linge, et avant

de l’utiliser, nettoyez l’intérieur du tambour pour retirer les

poussières qui pourraient s’y être accumulées pendant le

transport.

ne sont pas sous surveillance constante.

• Cet appareil doit être installé correctement

et avoir une ventilation convenable.

L’arrivée d’air sur le devant du sèche-linge

et l’évent derrière le sèche-linge ne doivent

jamais être obstrués (voir Installation).

• N’utilisez jamais le sèche-linge sur de

la moquette où la hauteur des poils

empêcherait l’air d’entrer dans la sèche-

linge à partir de la base.

• Vérifiez que le sèche-linge est bien vide

avant de le charger.

• L’arrière du sèche-linge peut devenir

très chaud.

Ne le touchez jamais en cours d’utilisation.

• N’utilisez pas le sèche-linge si le filtre, le

réservoir d’eau et le condenseur ne sont

pas bien en place (voir Entretien).

• Ne surchargez pas le sèche-linge (voir

Linge pour les charges maximales).

• Ne chargez pas d’articles qui dégouttent

d’eau.

• Vérifiez avec soin toutes les instructions sur

les étiquettes des vêtements (voir Linge).

• Ne séchez pas d’articles de grande taille,

très volumineux.

• Ne séchez pas de fibres acryliques à

hautes températures.

• N’éteignez pas le sèche-linge s’il contient

encore des articles chauds.

• Nettoyez le filtre après chaque utilisation

Vous devez observer les consigne

suivantes pour réduire tout risque

d’incendie dans votre sèche-linge :

• Ne séchez que des articles qui ont été

lavés avec de l’eau et un détergent, rincés

et essorés. Le fait de sécher des articles

qui N’ONT PAS été lavés avec de l’eau

constitue un danger d’incendie.

• Ne séchez pas des vêtements qui ont été

traités avec des produits chimiques.

• Ne placez pas d’articles tachés ou

imbibés d’huile végétale or de cuisson,

ils risqueraient de provoquer un incendie.

Les articles contenant de l’huile

peuvent prendre feu spontanément,

particulièrement lorsqu’ils sont exposés à

des sources de chaleur comme un sèche-

linge. En chauffant, les articles provoquent

une réaction d’oxydation avec l’huile

générant alors de la chaleur. Si la chaleur

ainsi générée ne peut pas être évacuée,

les articles peuvent devenir suffisamment

chauds pour prendre feu. Le fait d’empiler,

de superposer ou de stocker des articles

contenant de l’huile peut empêcher la

chaleur d’être évacuée et donc provoquer

un incendie. Si vous ne pouvez pas faire

autrement que de placer des articles

contenant de l’huile végétale ou de l’huile

de cuisson ou ayant été en contact avec
