The amount of time remaining until the programme is set to start is continuously displayed (e.g. 12h, 11h, 10h, … 30'etc). During the delayed start, it is not possible to change the programme or the delay time selected. To do this, you must first switch off the appliance by setting the programme selector to OFF. If you wish to add more laundry while the countdown is running, simply open the door. When you close the door, press the START/PAUSE button again to cause the count down to be resumed. 11 Intensity button For precise setting of the residual moisture content of the laundry, the degrees of dryness +, ++ or +++ can be set in addition to most programmes. Laundry becomes drier from + to +++. The INTENSITY button must be pressed repeatedly until the light for the residual moisture required is lit. In the programmes WOOL or SILK further drying can also be set by restarting the programmes with the residual moisture levels +, ++ or +++ set in addition, as required. In the case of a drying cycle with relatively dry laundry, the length of the programme cycle displayed at the beginning is corrected after a while. Important: Do not over dry wool or silk. 12 Level of dryness Depending on the selected programme the lights indicate the level of dryness reached while the drying cycle is running. The level of dryness increases from IRON DRY to EXTRA DRY. 11 Programme Chart Automatic drying Type of laundry Degree of drying required Max-load 1) Extra dry 6kg Store dry 6kg Cottons Cupboard dry 6kg Damp dry 6kg Iron dry 6kg Extra damp 6kg Extra dry 3kg Synthetics Cupboard dry 3kg Iron dry 3kg Jeans Heavy cotton 6kg Easy care fabrics Easy iron 1kg Woolen fabrics Wool 1kg Silk Silk 1kg Synthetics Refresh 1kg Type of laundry Drying time Max-load 1) Programme selector dial position Synthetics 30 min 1kg 30 minutes 1) Never overfill the drum (do not load large quilts, for example) • Easy iron is a special programme with anti-crease mechanism for easy care fabrics such shirts and blouses; for minimum ironing effort. The result depends on the type of fabric and its finish. • Wool is a special programme for drying woollen fabrics after they have been washed, using warm air at minimum mechanical load. Recommendation: Remove fabrics immediately after drying, as no anti-crease programme follows. Time controlled drying 1) Never overfill the drum (do not load large quilts, for example) Drying times vary according to: • The type of laundry • The size of the load • The degree of water extraction obtained during the spin cycle of the washing machine • The degree of dryness required Load It is often difficult to estimate the weight of items to be dried. We therefore recommend that you adopt the following guidelines: • cotton, linen: drum full but not too tightly packed; • synthetics: drum no more than half full; • delicate fabrics: drum no more than one third full. • Silk is a special programme for drying silk using warm air and gentle movement. • Refresh ia a special programme, lasting around 35 minutes, for refreshing or gently cleaning textiles with commercially available dry cleaning products (only use those products which are declared as suitable for the dryer by the manufacturer; please observe the manufacturer’s instructions for use). 12 Using the tumble dryer 1If the appliance was not transported in an upright position, leave it to stand for 12 hours before connecting it to the electricity supply and using it for the first time, so that the oil can flow back to the compressor. Otherwise the compressor could be damaged. In order to remove any residues which may have been produced during production, wipe the dryer drum with a damp cloth or carry out a brief drying cycle (30 MINUTES) with damp cloths in the machine. 1If the appliance was not transported in an upright position, leave it to stand for 12 hours before connecting it to the electricity supply and using it for the first time, so that the oil can flow back to the compressor.
