User manual AEG-ELECTROLUX EDE406M

[. . . ] Make sure that the appliance does not stand on its electrical supply cable. If the machine is situated on a carpeted floor, please adjust the feet in order to allow air to circulate freely. This tumble dryer is designed to be vented through to the open air. It should have its own ventilation system which should not be joined with any other ventilation system connected to any other appliance. [. . . ] Always insist on genuine Electrolux spare parts. INSTALLATION Positioning The appliance may be placed in any room, provided the following precautions are taken. The appliance expels hot, very moist air. The rest of the house must be able to easily absorb this moisture. Normally, absorption is only possible in houses where there is very little humidity. Otherwise, the room must have ventilation towards the outside; generally, an open door or window is enough. The capacity of the venting circuit must be at least 150 m3/hour. Check that the air inlet and outlet vents are unobstructed. The best way of evacuating the moisture is through a vent hose to the outside of the building. Use a special 100 mm diametre flexible hose, available through your dealer, connected to one of the air outlet vents with the collar supplied. Advice: If the hose is long and the room temperature low, the moisture might condense to water inside the hose. This is an unavoidable natural phenomenon. - Refit the safety catch (2) and plug (3) on the door by reversing their positions (Fig. - Remove the plastic plate (4) by unscrewing the two fastening screws (Fig. - Refit the plastic plate (4) on the opposite side (Fig. - Refit the door by screwing in the two screws (1) which fasten the door to the cabinet (Fig. B). P0281 Important When operating the tumble dryer, the room temperature must not exceed 35°C, as it may affect the performance of the appliance. To save energy, the room temperature should not be lower than +15°C. Levelling Level the tumble dryer into place by screwing or unscrewing the front feet as required. Accurate levelling will keep vibration and noise to a minimum when the dryer is in use. 3 2 1 4 P0046 P0283 A Electrical connection This machine is designed to operate on a 220-230 V, single-phase, 50 Hz supply. Check that your domestic electrical installation can take the maximum load required (2. 2 kW), also taking into account any other appliances in use. Connect the machine to an earthed socket, in accordance with current wiring regulations. The manufacturer declines any responsibility for damage or injury through failure to comply with the above safety precaution. 2 4 1 3 P0748 B 5 ENGLISH USE Control panel EDE 403 M 1 23 4 5 USE OF CONTROLS 1 Programme Chart This will help you to select the correct time for drying. 5 Drying Time Selector Dial The selector dial incorporates two drying cycles, one of up to 120 minutes at a high temperature for cotton and linen, and one of up to 80 minutes at a low temperature for synthetic fabrics. To set the machine to the selected time, turn the dial clockwise until the time you want coincides exactly with the pointer. [. . . ] Do not start by selecting a long drying time. It is better to determine the required degree of dryness by gradually increasing the drying time. For a mixed load (cotton and resistant synthetics, for example) select the time for the most delicate fibres and increase it by 10 mins. 7 ENGLISH Drying 1 Load the laundry Open the door by pulling it outward. Load the items one at a time, shaking them out loosely and close the door. [. . . ]
