Connecting your drier

Air extraction

(extraction models)
During drying, the moisture-laden warm air
leaving tour machine must be extracted (Fig.
8)
Either directly to the room:
If the room is well ventilated (if possible, install
your machine next to a half-open window).
Or via a fitting fixed in the wall:
Near to the outlet from the machine (a
ventilation grill, at a height of 30cm to avoid
condensation forming in the extraction pipe).
The louvres on the grill must be at least
15mm apart to avoid their becoming
clogged

Electricity supply

(Fig. 9) The electrical installation must
conform to Standard NF C 15-100,
particularly the regulations regarding
earthing.
A 3 x 2.5mm² single-phase 230V cable
connected to:
- A 20A single-phase 230V-50Hz meter
- An individually fused (10A or 16A depending
on the mode) differential circuit breaker
- A 16A 2-pin + Earth power point.

- The power point must be readily
accessible but out of the reach of
children.
- Do not use an extension, adaptor or
multiple socket.
- Always remember to earth the machine.
Your machine conforms to European Directives EC/73/23 (Low Voltage directive) and EEC/89/336
(Electromagnetic Compatibility) as modified by EEC/93/68.

The diameter of the hole through the wall
must at least be equal to the external
diameter of the extraction pipe.
Or by placing the end of the extraction pipe
out of an open window while the drier is
being used.

Preparing your washing

Check the condition of your fabrics:
If, before inserting your washing in the drier,
you notice any stains, even after washing,
do not dry the items concerned because,
as a general rule, you can no longer remove
stains that have been ironed or tumble-dried.
Refer to the methods for treating stubborn
stains provided in most washing machine
instructions and, above all, wash the stained
items again.
Preparing your washing:
- Close any zips or press-studs
- Remove any poorly sewn buttons, pins or
y y o o u u r r
staples
- Knot any belts, apron strings, etc.
- Empty the pockets

Inserting your washing

Recommended volumes:
To limit creasing and optimise drying times, we would advise you not to exceed:
- 3/4 of the volume of the drum when drying "All fabrics"
- half the volume of the drum when drying "silk items"
Inserting your washing in the drum:
- Open the door to the drum by pulling the
locking flap (Fig. 10)
- Place the already washed and spun items in
the drum without heaping them up or folding
them
- Close the door and reclose the flap by
pressing down on it until it locks perfectly
(Fig. 10)
- Ensure that the flap is fully engaged and
locked in its housing.
Check the labels on your washing
Normal Gentle
drying drying
Do not tumble dry
Do not tumble dry in your machine:
- Plastic-coated fabrics
- Chlorofibres (Thermolactyl* for example)
*Registered trademark
- items containing rubber or plastic foam
padding, frames or underwiring likely to
become detached
- Bulky articles (duvets, eiderdowns, etc.)
- Washing that has not been spun
- Items that have been cleaned with
inflammable chemicals.
