SAFETY
This machine may not be used for drying fabrics
that have been dry-cleaned at home, or which
can be suspected of containing residues of flam-
mable fluids.
The tumble dryer is fitted with an overhea-
ting protection device, which switches the mach-
ine off in the event of excessive temperature.
A float valve switches the machine off if the
condensation water hose becomes clogged, or if
there is danger of water flowing over from the
container.
INTERRUPTING THE PROGRAMME
A drying programme can be interrupted by pres-
sing the main switch,
, or by opening the
door causing the drum to stop automatically.
The machine will “remember” where in the pro-
gramme it was when stopped. If you wish to
continue the drying process, just close the door
and press the
-button and the machine
will start where it was interrupted.
You can also interrupt a programme by pres-
sing
for three seconds. However, if you
stop the machine in this way it will forget where
it was in the programme and you will have to
select a programme to restart.
TRANSPORT/WINTER STORAGE
If the machine is to be transported or stored
during the winter, on unheated premises, ensu-
re that the water container is drained.

recycling.
