• Do not use flammable cleaning agents.
• Do not use the tumble dryer if chemicals have been used for cleaning.
• Fabric softeners or similar products must be used as specified by the fabric
softener instructions.
• Never stop the tumble dryer before the end of the drying cycle, unless all
items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated. The
final phase of a drying cycle always occurs without heat (cool down phase),
to ensure that the laundry items are left at a temperature which does not
cause damage to the laundry.
• Clean the door filter after each drying cycle (see paragraph CLEANING THE
DOOR FILTER).
• Keep the surrounding area of the dryer free from lint.
• Always set the programme knob to the Off-position “O” after programme
end, to reduce the risk that the dryer might be started accidentally.
• Drying clothes with buckles or using dryer balls may impact the surface of
the drum.
Maintenance

the mains supply.
• Never use flammable fluids for cleaning the dryer.
• Do not use detergents containing solvents, scouring powder, glass or
general purpose cleaners. They might harm the surfaces.

• Repairs must only be done by our After-Sales service. Improper repairing can
lead to unpredictable dangers for the user and to damages on the dryer and
will moreover cause the loss of the guarantee.
• For repairs, only original spare parts are admitted, to assure proper
functioning of the dryer.
• For dryer models with drum light: Replacing the light bulb must only be
carried out by our After-Sales Service.
