Disposal of packing material
The packing materials protect the dryer
from damage during transport. They
have been selected for environmental
compatibility and efficient disposal and
can therefore be recycled.
To prevent suffocation, ensure that any
plastic wrappings, bags, etc. are
disposed of safely and kept out of the
reach of children.
Disposing of your old
appliance
Old appliances may contain materials
that can be recycled. Please contact
your local recycling authority about the
possibility of recycling these materials.
Ensure that a discarded dryer presents
no danger to children. When being
stored for disposal remove the door to
the drying compartment.
Saving energy
To avoid unnecessarily long drying
times and increased energy use:
–
Let the wash spin in the washer at
maximum spin speed.
You can save about 30% in energy
and time if you spin at 1600 instead
of 800 rpm.
–
Use the maximum load for each
drying program. This gives the
optimum energy consumption in
relation to the total amount of
laundry.
– Ensure that the room where the dryer
is located is sufficiently ventilated.
– Clean the lint screen after every use.
– Inspect the vent ducting regularly
and its components for possible
stoppage by lint and remove as
necessary.
– When installing, the vent ducting
avoid too many curves or bends.
