SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Your safety and the safety of others is very important. This manual contains imporatant information on the installation, use, and care of your appliance. Read the instructions for use carefully before using the dryer to prevent injury and property damage. Please, do not use the dryer without reading and understanding these instructions or use first. NOTE: These instructions for use are supplied with different types or models of dryers.
Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer. Items contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire. To reduce the risk of fire due to contaminated loads, the final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down period). Avoid stopping a tumble dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.

INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION CAUTION: Installation of this dryer should be performed by a qualified installation specialist. 1. Before using your dryer, remove the exterior and interior packaging. 2. Place the dryer on a clean, dry concrete floor strong enough to support the machine. DO NOT place the dryer on a carpet with long fibers, as it may impede air circulation. 3. Let the dryer stand for at least 24 before first using the appliance.
Dryer Placement A dryer with the same dimensions as a washer can be placed on top of the washing machine as long as the vacuum feet are used on the dryer (Fig. 1). Alternatively, the dryer can be placed next to the washing machine (Fig. 3). If your washing machine is smaller (minimum depth 21½" (545 mm)) than your dryer, then a dryer support must be purchased separately (Fig. 2). The supplied vacuum feet must be used, and they are designed to prevent the dryer from slipping.
Attaching the Drain Hose This dryer needs to be connected to a drain to dispel the water collected during the drying cycle. A drain hose is supplied with the appliance, and simply needs to be attached to an outer drain before use. To attach the drain hose: 1. Remove the drain hose from the holder on the back wall of the dryer, located on the left hand side, below the top cover. 2. Attach the hose into a drain no more than 31” (80cm) from the floor.
PROPER USAGE NOTE: Before using the dryer, clean the dryer drum using a soft, damp cotton cloth and water. DO NOT use any solvents or cleaning products, which could damage the dryer. Turning on the Dryer Once the dryer is properly placed, cleaned, and ready for use, press the ON/OFF switch (1). Selecting a Dryer Cycle Rotate the cycle selector knob (2) to the left or right to choose the appropriate drying cycle for your clothes.

Pull out the spout at the opening for easier emptying. Replace the condensation tank.
TROUBLESHOOTING If any irregularities occur during normal operations, turn the dryer off, and wait one minute. Turn the dryer back on, and repeat the drying program. Most errors can be solved by trying the suggestions below: Problem/error The machine will not start. There is voltage in the outlet, but the drum does not spin and the appliance does not work. Cause • The dryer is not turned on. • There is no voltage in the power outlet. What to do? • Check whether the main power switch is on.
• Laundry was not sufficiently wrung or spun. • If • The • Use • Laundry • Fasten amount of laundry dried in the appliance is too large or insufficient. (such as bedding) gets tangled into large balls. Drum lighting error • There is no lighting when the dryer door is opened. the laundry is still wet after the drying cycle, repeat the drying and select an appropriate drying program (after cleaning the filters). a suitable program or extra functions.
Error Display Meanings Errors indicated on the display unit may include the following: Error Display E0 Indication on the display What to do? unit and description of error Control unit failure Call the service center.

ECONOMIC DRYING Dry the recommended amount of laundry in each load (see PROGRAM TABLE). Drying laundry made of particularly delicate fabrics that may be deformed is not recommended. The use of conditioner in the washing cycle is not necessary, as the laundry is soft and smooth after drying in the dryer. The drying time will be shorter and the power consumption will be lower if the garments are thoroughly wrung or spun before drying.
