Safety information

822 61 13-20

Before installing and first using the tumble dryer, read this instruction booklet carefully, including

its hints and warnings. To avoid unnecessary mistakes and accidents, it is important to ensure

that all people using the dryer are thoroughly familiar with its operation and safety features.

Save these instructions and make sure they remain with the tumble dryer if it is moved or sold, so

that everyone using it through its life can be properly informed on appliance use and safety.

Installation and servicing

● All installation and service work done on the product

must be carried out by a qualified technician. Work

performed by persons with inadequate knowledge may

adversely affect the satisfactory functioning of the

product and may cause personal injury or damage.

Before any work is carried out on the tumble dryer, it

must be isolated from the electrical supply. To do this

the power plug must be removed from the wall socket.

● The machine is heavy, so take care when moving it.

● If the dryer is installed in a bathroom without fixed

wiring to the electrical supply, an earth leakage circuit

breaker (or RCD) must be used.

● The power cable must be plugged into an earthed

socket, which must be easily accessible. Permanent

installation must only be carried out by an authorized

electrician.

● If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced

by a special cord or assembly available from the

manufacturer or its service agent.

● Make sure that the power cable is not nipped or other-

wise damaged when moving the machine in connection

with installation or cleaning etc.

● The ventilation opening at the bottom of the door should

not be obstructed if the dryer is on a carpeted floor.

● The adjustable feet must not be removed, these

ensure that the underside of the dryer is ventilated.

● Servicing and repairs must be carried out by a service

company authorised by the supplier. Use only spare

parts supplied by these. Never try to repair the machine

yourself.

Child safety

● The tumble dryer should be used by adults only. Do not

let children play with the controls or other parts of it.

● Keep all packaging well away from children.

● Before loading the machine, check that there are no

foreign objects or pets inside the drum.

During use

● This dryer is intended only for normal domestic drying of

laundry and only in accordance with these instructions.

Using it for other purposes could lead to physical injury

or damage to property and invalidate the guarantee.

● Do not overload the dryer (see “Using your appliance”).

● Never start the dryer unless the fluff filter is clean and

correctly in place, or if the fluff filter is damaged (this

could cause overheating or damage your laundry).

● Get into the habit of cleaning the condenser at regular

intervals. Keeping the condenser as clean as possible

makes the dryer more efficient and means shorter

drying times.

● Laundry which has been in contact with chemicals such

as dry cleaning fluid and similar, should not be dried in

the machine, since volatile chemicals can be a fire risk.

● The following items/materials should not be dried in

the machine either:

– Pillows, cushions, down-filled items etc. (these

cause a build-up of heat and can make the dryer

overheat)

– Wool, on account of its tendency to mat

– Especially sensitive textiles, such as synthetic

curtains, silk etc.

– Garments made of foam rubber or rubber-like

materials must not be dried in the machine.

● Always switch off and unplug the appliance after use.

When removing the electrical plug, grip the plug, not

the lead.

At the end of the dryer’s life

● Disconnect the electrical plug from the power supply,

then cut the electrical lead at the point where it enters

the dryer. Make quite sure that children will not be able

to play with it.

● For advice on the best way to dispose of the dryer,

contact your local council or the service company.
