How to carry out a drying cycle

Starting and selecting a programme

1.Plug the dryer into the power supply socket.

2.Select the programme according to the type of laundry (see Laundry).

3.Open the door, ensure that the filter is clean and securely placed and that the water container is empty and correctly slotted (see Maintenance).

4.Load the machine, making sure that no piece of laundry gets between the door and the relative seal. Close the door.

5.Press the ON/OFF button to start the machine.

6.After consulting the programme chart and the indications for each type of fabric (see Laundry), turn the Programme selection knob towards the programme corresponding to the type of laundry to be dried (see Programmes and options).

! Warning: If the position of the programme selection knob changes after pressing the START/PAUSE button, the selected program- me will NOT be modified. To modify the programme, press the START/PAUSE button to put the programme in pause mode (the indicator light flashes orange), then select a new programme and the relative options. Press the START/PAUSE button to start the new programme.

7.Select the ”Timed Drying” function by pressing the timed drying button until the required time is dispayed (see Programmes and options).

8.If necessary, set the time of the delayed start and any other options (see Programmes and options).

9.Press the ALARM button to sound a buzzer signalling the end of the programme.

10.Press the START/PAUSE button to start the drying cycle. The display will show the approximate time remaining.

Laundry can be checked while the drying programme runs and any garments already dry can be removed, while drying continues for the remaining items. After closing the door, press the START/PAUSE button to resume machine operation.

11.The final COOL DRYING phase (i.e. the fabrics are cooled) activates during the last few minutes of the drying programme; always allow this phase to terminate.

12.A buzzer signals when the programme ends (provided the option was selected). The word “End” will appear on the display. Open the door, remove the laundry then clean the filter and replace it. Empty the water container and put it back in its slot (see Maintenance).

If the “Post anti-crease” option was selected and laundry is not removed immediately, the drum will rotate garments at intervals for

10hours or until the door is opened.

13.Disconnect the dryer from the power supply.
