Add laundry
Drying and the programme duration re-
maining will light up in the display.
The laundry will be cooled down shortly
before the end of the programme.
Tip: In the pull-down menu you can
view the selected drying level or dura-
tion and the energy consumption.
The PerfectDry display will only light up
with programmes with selectable drying
levels:
- Hollow point  after a programme
has started
The drying level reached will still be
shown later on.
- Solid point  when the drying level is
reached
PerfectDry measures the residual mois-
ture of the laundry. In programmes with
selectable drying levels, PerfectDry dries
the laundry precisely, although the res-
ult is also influenced by the calcium
content of the water. PerfectDry continu-
ally adapts, constantly increasing the
accuracy of the time left.
If you barely place anything inside the
tumble dryer or load it with dry laundry,
this will be sensed by the empty drum
detection feature. The automatic load
recognition function will restrict the run-
ning time of the selected programme
once it has started and will continue to
dry or air your laundry or textiles in a
gentle manner.
To prevent laundry wearing out
avoid overdrying it.
Energy savings
After 10minutes, the indicators dim and
the Start/Stop sensor starts flashing.
 Touch the Start/Stop sensor to switch
the indicators on again (this does not
have any effect on a running pro-
gramme).
The drum lighting switches off once the
programme has started.
Adding laundry
You can add laundry items after the
programme has started.
 Follow the description in “Changing
the programme sequence – Adding or
removing laundry”.
