Safety

The machine must not be used for drying items that have been dry-cleaned at home or fabrics that may contain residues of flam- mable liquids.

The tumble dryer is protected by an over- heating cut-out. This shuts off the machine if the temperature gets too high.

Stopping a programme

You can stop a drying programme by:

opening the door; the drum stops auto- matically,

or by pressing the main power switch.

When you want to resume tumble-drying, simply close the door and press the Start/ Stop button.

You can also stop a programme by press- ing the Start/Stop button for three sec- onds.

Packing material

Sort waste in accordance with local guide- lines.

Disposal

When the machine has reached the end of its service life and is to be disposed of, it should immediately be made unusable. Contact your local authority for information about where your old machine should be disposed of and recycled in the proper way. The machine is manufactured and labelled to facilitate recycling.

Caution During operation, the back of the tumble dryer will get very hot. Leave the machine to cool completely before touching the back.
