DRAIN HOSE: FITTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR TANK IN DOOR DRAWER

To avoid emptying the water container after each drying cycle, the water can be discharged directly to a waste water drain pipe (the same drainage system as household sinks). Water Bye-Laws prohibit connection to a surface water drain. The waste water drain pipe should be located adjacent to the tumble dryer.
The kit consists of:1 a hose and 1 tap.
WARNING! Switch off and remove the tumble dryer plug from the electricity supply before carrying out any work.
Fit the Hose as Follows:

1. Ti It is the machine backward.
   

2. The waste water pipe is situated at the right-hand side of the machine (see the picture). A grey hose connects to the bridge at the left-hand side of the machine. Using pliers, remove the pipe retaining clip from the bridge.
   

3. Pull the hose off the bridge connection.

4. Attach the black hose from the kit, (using the connector and pipe clips supplied), to the hose removed from the bridge connection.
   

5. Place the tap supplied by the kit to close the remaining hose. Connect the new drain hose to the waste black water pipe.
   

6. Once the machine is in place, check the bottom to ensure that the new hose does not kink when pushing the tumble dryer into position.

Connect to the mains electricity supply.
NOTE: The direct drain condensed water kit is suitable only on models with the water tank on the door.

PREPARING THE LOAD

Before using the tumble dryer for the first time:

• Please read this instruction book thoroughly.
• Remove all items packed inside drum.
• Wipe the inside of the drum and door with a damp cloth to remove any dust which may have settled in transit.

Clothes Preparation
Make sure that the laundry you are going to dry is suitable for drying in a tumble dryer, as shown by the care symbols on each item. Check that all fastenings are closed and that pockets are empty. Turn the articles inside out. Place clothes loosely in the drum to make sure that they don’t get tangled.
Do Not Tumble Dry:
Silk, nylon stockings, delicate embroidery, fabrics with metallic decorations, garments with PVC or leather trimmings.
IMPORTANT: Do not dry articles which have been treated with a dry cleaning fluid or rubber clothes (danger of fire or explosion).
During the last 15 minutes, the load is always tumbled in cool air.
Energy Saving
Only put into the tumble dryer laundry which has been thoroughly wrung or spin-dried. The drier the laundry the shorter the drying time thus saving electricity.
ALWAYS

• Check that the filter is clean before every drying cycle.

NEVER

• Put dripping wet items into the tumble dryer, this may damage the appliance.

Sort the Load as Follows

• By care symbols
  These can be found on the collar or inside seam:

| Suitable for tumble drying.
---|---
| Tumble drying at high temperature.
| Tumble drying at low temperature only.
| Do not tumble dry.

If the item does not have a care label it must be assumed that it is not suitable for tumble drying.

• By amount and thickness
  Whenever the load is bigger than the dryer capacity, separate clothes according to thickness (e.g. towels from thin underwear).

• By type of fabric
  Cotton/linen: Towels, cotton jersey, bed, and table linen. Synthetics: Blouses, shirts, overalls, etc. made of polyester or polyamide, as well as cotton/synthetic mixes.
  ****Do not overload the drum, large items when wet exceed the maximum admissible clothes load (for example sleeping bags, duvets).

CLEANING AND ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
