Care Labels you may find on your laundry may be tumble dried normal drying (high temperature) delicate drying (low temperature) do not tumble dry Do not overload the appliance. Here is a list of the approximate weight of some common laundry items. Sheet 700 to 1000 g Pillowcase 100 to 200 g Tablecloth 400 to 500 g Table Napkin 50 to 100 g Kitchen Towel 70 to 120 g Linen Hand Towel 100 to 150 g Hand Towel 150 to 250 g Bath Towel 700 to 1000 g Bathrobe 1000 to 1500 g Shirt 200 to 300 g Apron 150 to 200 g · Always load well spun laundry. The higher the spin speed the lower the electricity consumption and the shorter the drying time. · DO NOT load dripping wet laundry into the dryer. Roll the article in a towel or spin to remove excess water. · Close poppers and zips and fasten any buttons. · Sort the laundry. Separate synthetics from cotton/linens, and dry separately. · Remove the laundry immediately after the programme has finished. · Use a fabric conditioning sheet to reduce static. We recommend the sheet is pinned to an article of laundry (using a safety pin). · Mix the load i.e. large and small articles. · When drying large items such as sheets, we recommend you periodically stop the dryer to redistribute the load. DO NOT use the tumble dryer to dry the following: · Articles contaminated with inflammable substances e.g. petrol, cleaning solvents, cooking oil, fats or hair lacquer. · Woollen and synthetic/wool mixtures unless the item is labelled as suitable for tumble drying. · Very delicate articles such as silk. · Very large and bulky items such as duvets or sleeping bags. 8 Maintenance and Cleaning You must disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply, before you can carry out any cleaning or maintenance work. If necessary the filters can be cleaned with warm water using a brush. In this case, remove the filter in the door opening as per picture (it can be positioned with the tongue facing to the left or to the righ). kg 5 kg 2,5 External cleaning 70' - 90' 35' - 50' 800 / 900 1000 / 1200 65' - 85' 30' - 45' 80' - 100' 70' 55' - 800 / 900 1000 / 1200 75' - 95' 50' - 65' kg 1 kg 2,5 50' - 60' 30' - 35' 650 E RS VE RE TO AU Use only soap and water and then dry thoroughly. Important: do not use methylated spirit, diluents or similar products. Cleaning the door Clean periodically the interior part of the door to remove any fluff from the seals around the filter. Regular cleaning ensures correct drying. kg 5 kg 2,5 P1152 70' - 90' 35' - 50' 800 / 900 1000 / 1200 65' - 85' 30' - 45' 80' - 100' 70' 55' - 800 / 900 1000 / 1200 75' - 95' 50' - 65' kg 1 kg 2,5 50' - 60' 30' - 35' 650 E RS VE RE TO AU Do not use the appliance without filters. Cleaning the condenser unit Clean the air condenser periodically, 3 or 4 times a year depending on how frequently the dryer is used. The condenser is situated at the lower part of the cabinet behind a small door. To open the door, push the catch as per picture. P1150 Cleaning the filters Your dryer will only function well if the filters are clean. The filters collect all the fluff which accumulates during drying and they must therefore be cleaned at the end of each programme, before removing the laundry, with a damp cloth. kg 5 kg 2,5 P1153 70' - 90' 35' - 50' 800 / 900 1000 / 1200 65' - 85' 30' - 45' 80' - 100' 70' 55' - 800 / 900 1000 / 1200 75' - 95' 50' - 65' kg 2,5 kg 1 50' - 60' 30' - 35' 650 E RS VE RE TO AU To pull out the condenser, first turn the two red stops inwards as shown and then remove the condenser unit holding it at the handle. P1110 P1151 The filter in the inner door must be removed for cleaning. Do not be alarmed by the amount of fluff. It is not due to excessive wear caused by the dryer. All fabric looses fluff when drying but it goes un-noticed in the air. In a tumble dryer it simply collects in the filter. P1159 P1155 9 Clean it with a brush and rinse it under the shower if necessary. The reservoir must be re-inserted correctly. After inserting the reservoir the programme will continue after about 20 seconds. Handy tip: The condensed water may be used in a steam iron or to top up a battery, etc. In this case it must be filtered (e.g. through a coffee filter). Cleaning the air intake grille P0639 Using a vacuum cleaner remove the fluff from the air intake grille at the back of the appliance. Also clean the outside, removing all fluff. Clean the rubber seal round the condenser cabinet and in the inner part of the small door with a damp cloth. Important! Do not use pointed objects or utensils to clean the spaces between the plates, as this could damage the condenser and make it permeable. Re-fit the condenser, turn the red stops upwards and close the door. Do not use this appliance if the condenser has not been fitted. P1162 Emptying the water reservoir Water extracted from the laundry condenses inside the machine and is collected in a reservoir. The reservoir must be emptied after each drying cycle to ensure efficient operation when the machine is next used. If this is not done a safety device trips: pilot light on the control panel comes on and the programme stops, leaving the laundry damp. The reservoir can be emptied even in the middle of a programme. P1158 10 Something Not Working Certain problems are due to lack of simple maintenance or oversights, which can be solved easily without calling out an engineer.
