User manual TRICITY TM551 MK2

[. . . ] Maximum economy in the operation of your dryer is achieved through very frugal electricity consumption and short drying times. Energy saving tips To save energy we recommend that you follow these hints: s Try to load the maximum capacity of the machine as small loads are uneconomical. The higher the spin speed, the lower the electricity consumption and the shorter the drying times. Clothes which are dripping wet should not be placed in the dryer. s Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and saves energy. [. . . ] During the cooling phase, the appliance's heating elements are switched off and the laundry is cooled before the tumble dryer stops automatically in position `0' (end of drying cycle). Do not shorten or interrupt the cooling phase. Leaving warm laundry inside the drum will cause creasing and in some cases permanent damage. 2 "Full tank" light This light lights up when the water container is full or when it has been inserted incorrectly. The programme will be interrupted. 3 Mains-on light The mains-on light is alight during the drying cycle. It switches off at the end of selected drying time. 4 Door opening button To open the door, press this button. Should the door be opened while appliance is working, the tumble dryer will stop functioning. 6 Programme Chart Cotton and linen Heating element - 2400 W Drying time in minutes for laundry spun at 800 rpm 1000 rpm 1200 rpm Type of laundry: Degree of drying Amount of laundry in kg Cotton Towelling Shirts Sheets Hand towels Tablecloths Table napkins 5. 0 95-110 90-105 85-100 Cupboard dry (wardrobe dry) 2. 5 65-75 60-70 55-65 Iron dry (not completely dry; suitable for ironing) 5. 0 80-95 75-90 65-80 2. 5 50-60 45-55 40-50 Synthetics Heating element - 1800 W Amount of laundry in kg 2. 0 Type of laundry: Degree of drying Drying time in minutes for laundry spun at a minimum speed of 650 rpm 30-40 25-35 20-30 25-35 15-25 15-20 Synthetics or mixed fabrics which do not require ironing.

There may be dust or dirt inside a brand new tumble dryer. 1. Load the laundry Open the door by pressing the "door opening" button. Close door making sure that there are no laundry items preventing the door from being closed. P0871 2. Select drying time Turn the dial clockwise until the desired drying time is under the symbol on the front panel. Remove fluff from filter by hand or with a damp cloth. Place filter in original position. P0638 Emptying water container (tank) Water extracted from the laundry being dried is collected in a special container. This container must be emptied after every cycle, but it can also be emptied during the drying cycle. Should you forget to empty the container, a light will light up on the panel and the drying cycle will stop automatically even if the laundry is not dry yet. This information can be found on the rating plate located in the lower part of the appliance. Please note that it will be necessary to provide proof of purchase for any in-guarantee service calls.
