[. . . ] Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and saves energy. Select the drying programme according to the type of laundry and the required degree of dryness. To utilize the maximum load, laundry which is to be dried ready to put away (store dry) can be dried together with items to be ironed. To do this, select the time for iron-dry, remove the iron-dry items at the end of the programme and then finish-dry the rest of the load. Clean the filters regularly to avoid excessive drying times and high electricity consumption. The room temperature should not exceed +35C during drying. 5 ENGLISH Description of the appliance 01 Control panel 02 Fluff filters 03 Rating Plate 04 Adjustable feet 1 2 3 2 4 05 Side vent outlets 06 Ring nut 07 Rear vent outlet 7 5 6 6 Installation Warning! Unpacking Slide out the polythene bag with the polystyrene stuffing before using the appliance. Pull off adhesive strips from inside machine on top of drum. Do not restrict the floor clearance through deeppile carpets, strips of wood or similar. This might cause heat build-up which would interfere with the operation of the appliance. Important When operating the tumble dryer, the room temperature must not exceed 35C, as it may affect the performance of the appliance. Fitting the vent hose To simplify the installation, there is a choice of vent outlets: one at the back, the others in the left and right-hand side. Connect the hose to whichever is the more convenient by pulling the ring nut (A) from the vent outlet at the back, screwing it on to the hose and pushing it firmly back into place. This operation must be carried out by qualified personnel. Please contact the nearest Electrolux Service Centre. 8 Use The control panel ENGLISH 1 23 456 7 1 Programme Chart This will help you to select the correct time for drying. 6 Start Button After selecting the drying time press this button to start the programme. If the door is opened during drying or during a power cut, this button has to be depressed again after closing the door to allow the programme to continue. 2 Mains-On Light This lights comes up when the appliance is switched on (ON-OFF button pressed down) and goes out when the same button is released. 7 Drying Time Selector Dial The selector dial incorporates two drying cycles, one of up to 150 minutes at a high temperature for cotton and linen, and one of up to 100 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. NEVER attempt to turn the dial in an anticlockwise direction. When selecting the drying time, you should remember that it includes a 10 minute cooling phase (position on the dial). This phase should not be shortened, stopped or avoided, as this could cause skin burns or damages to the laundry. Additional drying If at the end of the programme, the laundry is still too dump, set the dial for a further period of drying (remembering to take into account the cooling period). 3 ON/OFF button This button is used to switch the dryer on. At the end of the programme, release this button by pressing it again to switch the dryer off. 4 Low Temperature Button Press this button to reduce the temperature when drying particularly delicate cotton or linen items.

This will be necessary particularly for multilayered items (e. g. [. . . ]
