the hazards involved.
• This tumble dryer has been designed for
home, and not professional, use.
• Do not touch the appliance while barefoot
or with wet hands or feet.
• Unplug the machine by pulling on the plug,
not the cord.
• After using the dryer, turn it off and unplug
it. Keep the door closed to make sure that

kept away from the appliance unless
continuously supervised.
• The appliance must be installed correctly
and have proper ventilation. The air intake
at the front of the dryer should never be
obstructed (see Installation).
• Never use the dryer on carpeting where the
pile height would prevent air from entering
the dryer from the base.
• Check to see if the dryer is empty before
loading it.
The back of the dryer could become
very hot. Never touch it while in use.

• Do not turn off the dryer when there are
still warm items inside.
• Clean the fi lter after each use (see
Maintenance).
• Empty the water container after each use
(see Maintenance).
�•
Clean the condenser unit at regular intervals
(see Maintenance).
�•
Do not allow lint to collect around the
dryer.
• Never climb on top of the dryer. It could
result in damage.
• Always follow electrical standards and
requirements (see Installation).
• Always buy original spare parts and
accessories (see Service).
To minimise the risk of fire in your
tumble dryer, the following should
be observed:
• Tumble dry items only if they have been
washed with detergent and water, rinsed
and been through the spin cycle. It is a fi re
hazard to dry items that HAVE NOT been
washed with water.
�•
Do not dry garments that have been
treated with chemical products.
• Do not tumble dry items that have
been spotted or soaked with vegetable
or cooking oils, this constitutes a fi re
hazard. Oil-affected items can ignite
spontaneously,especially when exposed
to heat sources such as a tumble dryer.
The items become warm, causing
an oxidisation reaction with the oil,
Oxidisation creates heat. If the heat
cannot escape, items can become hot
enough to catch fi re. Piling, stacking or
storing oil-effected items can prevent
heat from escaping and so create a fi re
hazard.If it is unavoidable that fabrics
containing vegetable or cooking oil or
those that have been contaminated with
hair care products be placed in a tumble
dryer they should fi rst be washed with
extra detergent - this will reduce, but not
eliminate the hazard. They should not
be removed from the dryer and piled or
stacked while hot.
• Do not tumble dry items that have
previously been cleaned in or washed
in, soaked in or soiled with petrol/
gasoline, dry cleaning solvents or other
