LE NING THE PPLI NCE
To clean the control panel, the access to the drum
and the casing, use only a sponge or a damp cloth
and some soapy water.
— Ensure that there is no fluff accumulating round
the dryer.
— Clean the door seal with a damp cloth and the fil-
ter housing with your vacuum cleaner once a year.
— You should not use, under any circumstances,
the abrasive powders, the metal or plastic
sponges and the alcohol-based products (Fig. 4.4).

H NGING THE BULB
(according to model)
You can replace the light bulb (type E14-15W/230V)
yourself (Fig. 1.1) .
To do this:
— Unscrew the glass cover located at the top, inside
the appliance.
G
— Unscrew the extinguished bulb
and replace it.
— Screw on the glass cover tightly.

- DRYING TIME
The drying times below are given to you as an indication, because they are function:
— The desired result: dry, damp, etc.
— The ambient temperature (these values correspond to an ambient temperature of 20°C).
— The quality of the prior spin-drying.

COTTON -

MIXED -

3 kg
DELIC TES -

For lower spin speeds, the times will be relatively longer.
(For example, for 5kg of normal laundry spun at 500 rpm: 120 to 160 minutes).

IRECT EV CU TION OF W TER CONDEN
(Top condensate container models only)
SER
To avoid having to empty the collection tank every
time you use the appliance, you have a kit (*) for
removing the water from the condenser directly into
the drain (hose and deflector). To fit this:
— Take off the existing pipe
and push it inside
the appliance (Fig. 4.5.1).
B
— Clip the deflector
with the top of the pump
(Fig. 4.5.1).
C
— Connect the hose
from the kit to the end
D
connector
on the appliancl (Fig. 4.5.2).
You can connect the other end of the hose either:
- To a ventilated trap (Fig. 4.5.3).
- Or a sink trap (Fig. 4.5.4).
When connecting to a trap, you must remove the fil-
ler plug. Then press home the rubber tip. If neces-
sary, add a clamp connection (Fig. 4.5.4).
— (*) This kit is provided with the appliance or is
available near your fter-sales service (according
to model).
— The deflector must necessarily be positioned
before the drain hose connection.

6 - TROUBLESHOOTING
-
Some incidents may arise when you are using your dryer. Here are the points you should check:
Fault:
The dryer does not start:
The drying times are too long:
The laundry is too damp:
The laundry is too dry, too creased:
The items are unevenly dried:
The synthetic items are loaded with
static electricity:
The "Tank Full" indicator light is lit:
The "Tank Full" indicator light illumi-
nates although the tank is empty:
7 - INTERVENTIONS
ny work on your appliance must be performed by a Brand-approved qualified professional. When you call,
mention your appliance's full reference (model, type, serial number). These details are shown on the manufac-
turer's information plate (Fig. 1.1).
O
RIGIN L P RTS
During any maintenance work, ask that only certified original replacement parts be used.

Check whether:
- the plug is in the socket.
- the door is properly closed.
- the condenser is correctly locked in place.
- the "Start" key was pressed (if the appliance was
not in pause).
- the filter in the drum is clogged with fluff.
- the laundry has been spun enough beforehand
(500rpm minimum, but spinning at 850rpm provides
better drying times).
- the room temperature is not too high, particularly if
the room is small: if necessary, open the door or
window.
- the condenser is not clogged.
- the air inlets and outlets are unobstructed enough to
ensure correct air circulation.
- the laudry choice selected matches the type of
items in the drum.
- the filter in the drum is clogged with fluff.
- the type of laundry has been selected correctly or if
the drying time is good enough.
- the condenser is not blocked by fluff.
- the drying time selected is too long: the drying time
is better to be too short than too long: this avoids
the laundry becoming too dry and difficult to iron.
- the types of textiles in the load are too different (e.g.
sheets together with jeans).
- the laundry has been laid correctly 'unfolded' in the
dryer.
- the drum is not overloaded.
- the laundry has been dried too much.
- you have used softener during washing. By using
this product, you can reduce most of the problems
with static electricity.
- the condensate container is full: once you have emp-
tied it, re-insert it correctly, pushing it completely
into its housing.
- the container has been properly inserted: push it in
completely.
- the condenser is tightly locked on the two sides.
