Information on laundry ... Care and cleaning
Labelling of fabrics
Follow the manufacturer's care information.
Drying at normal temperature.
Drying at low temperature -> also select °C delicado (Low heat).
Do not machine dry.
Observe safety instructions without fail -> Page 11!
Do not tumble-dry the following fabrics for example:
– Impermeable fabrics (e.g. rubber-coated fabrics).
– Delicate materials (silk or curtains made from synthetic material) -> they may crease
– Laundry contaminated with oil.
Drying tips
– To ensure a consistent result, sort the laundry by fabric type and drying programme.
– Always dry very small items (e.g. baby socks) together with large items of laundry (e.g.
hand towel).
1. Pull out the condensation container.
– Fold up large items of laundry (bed sheets) before drying.
– Close zips, hooks and eyelets, and button up covers.
Tie fabric belts, apron strings, etc. together
– Do not over-dry easy-care laundry -> risk of creasing!
Allow laundry to finish drying in the air.
– Do not dry woolens in the dryer, only use to freshen them up -> Page 7, acabado lana/lã
2. Twist the filter to release it from the catch.
(Woolens Finish) Programme.
– Do not iron laundry immediately after drying, fold items up and leave for a while -> the
remaining moisture will then be distributed evenly.
– Machine-knitted fabrics (e.g. T-shirts or jerseys) often shrink the first time they are dried ->
do not use the extra seco (extra dry) programme.
– Starched laundry is not always suitable for dryers -> starch leaves behind a coating that
adversely affects the drying operation.
3. Clean the filter under a continuously-running stream of water.
– Use the correct dosage of fabric softener as per the manufacturer's instructions when
washing the laundry to be dried.
– Use the timer programme for small loads -> this improves the drying result.
Environmental protection/energy-saving tips
– Before drying, spin the laundry thoroughly in the washing machine -> the higher the spin
speed the shorter the drying time will be (consumes less energy), also spin easy-care 4. Insert the filter and turn it until the limit stop is reached.
laundry.
– Put in, but do not exceed, the maximum recommended quantity of laundry ->
programme overview -> Page 7.
5. Slide in the condensation container until it clicks into place.
– Make sure the room is well ventilated during drying.
– Do obstruct or seal up the air inlet.
1. Open the door.
2. Clean the moisture sensors with a damp scouring sponge.

Only when switched off!
Heat exchanger
The heat exchanger of the dryer is cleaned automatically when drying is in progress,
Cln appears in the display panel. Do not pull the condensation container out during the
cleaning process.
Dryer housing, control panel, air inlet
– Wipe off with a soft, damp cloth.
– Do not use caustic cleaning agents and solvents.
– Remove detergent and cleaning agent residue immediately.
– Water may occasionally accumulate between the window and the seal.
This does not impair the functions of your dryer in any way.
Filter in condensation container
The filter is cleaned automatically when the condensation container is emptied. Cleaning is
only required if the symbol flashes again in the display panel once the condensation
container has been emptied.
Only operate the dryer with the filter inserted!
Moisture sensors
The dryer is equipped with stainless steel moisture sensors. Moisture sensors measure the
moisture level of the laundry. After sustained, repeated operation, a fine layer of scale may
form on the moisture sensors.
.
Do not use steel wool or or abrasive materials!
