Operating sequence

Before using your tumble dryer for the first time, we
recommend to place a few damp cloths inside the
appliance and dry for 30 minutes.
There may be dust inside a brand new tumble dryer.
Drying
1. Connect the appliance.
2. Open the door.

3. Load the items one at a time, shaking them out
loosely.
4. Close the door. Check the laundry does not get
caught between the door and filter.
5. Select the drying programme or time. The lights
DRYING, COOLING and END come on.
6. If required, press the LOW TEMPERATURE
button and/or the NO BUZZER button or the
QUICK button.
7. Press the START/PAUSE button: the
corresponding light stops flashing and drying
starts. Only the DRYING light remains lit.
If the programme selector dial is turned to
another position, when the machine is running,
the buzzer will sound (if the NO BUZZER option
has not been selected) and the programme
phase indicator lights will flash.
The drum turns alternately in both directions
during drying.
All drying programmes end with a 10 minute
cooling phase (COOLING light is on).
You may remove the laundry after this phase.
The lights END, CLOGGED FILTERS and FULL
TANK illuminate and the buzzer sounds.

8. If the laundry is not removed at the end of the
cycle, the dryer performs an anti-creasing
phase and an acoustic signal can be heard
(duration: 30 minutes maximum).
If you do not remove the laundry, the dryer will stop
automatically at the end of the anti-creasing phase.
Lights END, CLOGGED FILTERS and FULL
TANK remain lit and the buzzer sounds for 2
minutes.
9. Turn the programme selector dial to "O"; all the
lights go out. The appliance is switched off.
Remove the laundry.
If you open and then close the door before
turning the selector dial to "O" all the lights
corresponding to the phases making up the
performed programme come on.
After each use
• Clean the filters (see page 13).
• Empty the water reservoir (see page 14).
Important!
If the drying program has to be stopped before it
reaches cycle end, we recommend you turn the
program selector dial to the cooling position and
wait till the end of its cooling phase before removing
the garments. This will avoid the build-up of heat
inside the appliance. To do this first turn the dial to
«0» and then to the cooling program, depress
Start/Pause button.
Modifying the programme
To change a programme which is running, first
cancel it by turning the programme selector dial to
"O". Select the new programme and press the
START/PAUSE button.
