Water hardness
Water contains, a variable
quantity of limestone and min-
eral salts of which quantities
vary according to geographical
locations thus varying its con-
ductivity values.
Relevant variations of the con-
ductivity of the water compared
to those prefixed by the factory
could slightly influence the re-
sidual humidity of the laundry at
the end of the cycle. Your dryer
allows you to regulate the sen-
sitivity of the drying sensor
based on conductivity values of
the water. 1. Turn the programme selector to any programme.
2. Press simultaneously the Droogtegraad and START/PAUZE
buttons and hold down for approx. 5 seconds. The current set-
ting is on the display:
–
low conductivity <300 micro S/cm
–
medium conductivity 300-600 micro S/cm
–
high conductivity >600 micro S/cm
3. Press the START/PAUZE START PAUZE button sequentially
until you set desired level.
4. To memorize setting press simultaneously the the Droogte-
graad and START/PAUZE buttons or turn knob to O off po-
sition
Hints for test institutes
Parameters possible to checked by the Test
Institutes:
• Energy consumption (corrected with final
humidity) during the cupboard dry cotton
cycle with nominal load.
• Energy consumption (corrected with final
humidity) during the cupboard dry cotton
cycle with half load.
• Final humidity (during cupboard dry cot-
ton, iron dry cotton and cupboard dry easy
care)
• Condensation efficiency (corrected with fi-
nal humidity) during cupboard dry cotton
cycle with nominal and half load
All the cycles have to be checked in accord-
ance with EN 61121 (Tumble dryers for
household use – Methods for measuring the
performance).
Installation
Important! The appliance must be moved in
vertical position for transport.
Appliance positioning
• It is recommended that, for your conven-
ience, the machine is positioned close to
your washing machine.
• The tumble dryer must be installed in a
clean place, where dirt does not build up.
• Air must be able to circulate freely all round
the appliance. Do not obstruct the front
ventilation grille or the air intake grilles at
the back of the machine.
• To keep vibration and noise to a minimum
when the dryer is in use, it should be
placed on a firm, level surface.
• Once in its permanent operating position,
check that the dryer is absolutely level with
the aid of a spirit level. If it is not, raise or
lower the feet until it is.
• The feet must never be removed. Do not
restrict the floor clearance through deep-
pile carpets, strips of wood or similar. This
might cause heat built-up which would in-
terfere with the operation of the appliance.
Important!
The hot air emitted by the tumble dryer can
reach temperatures of up to 60°C. The ap-
pliance must therefore not be installed on
floors which are not resistant to high temper-
atures.
When operating the tumble dryer, the room
temperature must not be lower than +5°C
and higher than +35°C, as it may affect the
performance of the appliance.
Important! Should the appliance be moved,
it must be transported vertically.
Important! The appliance must not be
installed behind the lockable door, a sliding
door a door with a hinge on the opposite side
to that of the appliance.
