Safety instructions

Your drier is only for domestic use and has been designed only for drying fabrics
capable of being tumble-dried.
The following safety instructions must
be observed. We accept no responsibility
and reject the guarantee if non-
observance of these instructions leads
to material damage or physical injury.
The condenser must be cleaned twice
a month.
• Never connect your extraction pipe to a
chimney or flue (risk of back-flow of
combustion gases) or to a controlled
ventilation fan system. (If your drier is the
extraction type).
• The machine must only be used in an
appropriate manner to avoid damage to
your washing and the machine. Do not use
solvents in the machine (risk of fire or
explosion).
• Precautions when using stain removers:
any prior treatment with solvents, stain
removers or aerosols is forbidden; these
products are highly inflammable. If your
washing does require this type of treatment,
you must carry this out before washing the
items. We also do not recommend that you
use such products near to your drier or, in
general, near any electrical appliance in a
poorly ventilated room to avoid the risk of
an explosion occurring.
• Carefully comply with the maintenance
instructions shown on the labels on your
washing.

Energy saving tips

• Spin your washing at high speed: this
reduces any residual dampness to a low level,
and your energy consumption. Even synthetic
fabrics must be spun before drying.
• Load your machine to the maximum so that
you make optimum use of energy. Observe
the indications regarding volume, which we
provide in these instructions.
• If you must open the door of the drum
during the drying cycle, take care not to
touch the drum immediately since it will
be very hot.
•Depending on your model, check the
extraction pipe at regular intervals to avoid
your machine malfunctioning.
• If an incident should occur and you cannot
resolve it using the remedial actions we
recommend (please refer to the chapter on
"Incidents that may occur"), contact an
appropriately qualified service engineer.
• Do not let children play with the machine
and keep your pets away from it.
• Before disposing of your worn out
appliance, please render it inoperable.
Disconnect the power cable and cut it off
flush with the machine. Break the door lock
so that it cannot operate.
• Respect the environment: contact your
dealer or your local council's Technical
Services department for information on
disposing of your machine when it finally
wears out.
• If you want to change the power supply
cable on your machine, contact a qualified
service engineer.
• High ambient temperatures and use in too
small a room increase the drying time and
therefore the amount of electricity consumed.
• On condenser models, check that the
ventilation grill on the front of the machine is
not obstructed and is kept clean.
