the product.  
Environmental tips  
• In the dryer, laundry becomes fluffy and soft. Fabric softeners are not therefore needed  
when washing.  
• Filtered condensed water can be used for ProSteam programmes.  
• Your dryer will function most economically if you:  
– always keep the ventilation slots on the base of the dryer unobstructed;  
– use the loading volumes specified in the programme overview;  
– ensure you have good ventilation in the installation room;  
– clean micro filter and fine filter after every drying or ProSteam programme;  
– spin the laundry well before drying.  
Energy consumption depends on spinning speed set in washing machine. Higher spinning  
speed - lower energy consumption.  
Packaging material  
The packaging materials are environmentally friendly and can be recycled. The plastic com-  
ponents are identified by markings, e.g. >PE<, >PS<, etc. Please dispose of the packaging  
materials in the appropriate container at the community waste disposal facilities.  
WARNING!  
When disposing of old appliances, remove the mains cable and dispose of together with  
the plug. Remove the door hook and ensure it is no longer lockable to prevent young  
children being trapped inside.

Sorting and preparing laundry  
Sorting laundry  
• Sort by fabric type:  
– Cotton/linen for programmes in COTTONS pogramme group.  
– Mixtures and synthetics for programmes in SYNTHETICS programme group.  
• Sorting by care label. The care labels mean:  
Drying in the tumble  
dryer possible in prin-  
ciple  
Dry at reduced tem-  
perature (chooseDEL-  
ICATE option!)  
Dry at normal tem-  
Drying in the tumble  
dryer not possible  
perature  
Do not place in the appliance any wet laundry which is not specified on the care label as  
being suitable for tumble-drying.  
This appliance can be used for all wet laundry items which are labelled as suitable for  
tumble-drying.  
• Do not dry new, coloured textiles together with light-coloured laundry items. Textile  
colours may bleed.  
• Do not dry cotton jersey and knitwear with the EXTRA DRY programme. Items may shrink!  
• Wool and wool-like textiles can be dried using the WOOL programme. Before the drying  
cycle spin the woollen textiles as well as possible (max. 1200 rpm). Only dry woollen  
textiles together which are similar or the same with respect to material, colour and  
weight. Please dry heavy laundry items made of wool separately.  
• The following textiles cannot be treated using a ProSteam programme:  
leather, textiles with large metal, wooden or plastic parts, textiles with rusting metal  
parts, oilskins or wax cotton garments.  
• To smooth or freshen laundry with a ProSteam programme, sort laundry by size, weight,  
material and colour.  
Only smooth textiles together that are similar in terms of size, weight, material and  
colour.  
• Do not dry new, coloured textiles together with light-coloured laundry items. Colours  
may fade (check colour fastness of fabric when damp in an inconspicuous area).  
• Do not use dry cleaning sets in combination with ProSteam programmes.  
Preparing laundry  
• To avoid laundry becoming tangled: close zips, button up duvet covers and tie loose ties  
or ribbons (e.g. of aprons).  
• Empty pockets. Remove metal items (paper clips, safety pins, etc).  
• Turn items with double-layered fabrics inside out (e.g. with cotton-lined anoraks, the  
cotton layer should be outermost). These fabrics will then dry better.  
Special notes about ProSteam  
• Before treating garments with a ProSteam programme, remove stains by washing or  
using localized stain removal

ProSteam system  
Fill steam water tank  
You must fill up the steam water tank before using a ProSteam programme for the first  
time. Use the distilled water provided if there is not yet any condensed water from previous  
drying programmes (see chapter on ‘Care and cleaning, Emptying condensed water con-  
tainer’). If, after a ProSteam programme is selected, the following message: The steam water  
tank is empty. Please fill it and then press START appears on the display, you will need to

fill up the steam water tank with distilled water. Otherwise, you will not be able to start  
any ProSteam programme.  
Pull drawer containing condensed water contain-  
er out a little 1, then pull the water tank’s filler  
neck 2  
Important! Only fill the water tank with dis-  
tilled or fully desalinated water. Do not use  
tap water or additives! You can also use the

condensed water from the tank, as long as you  
filter it first (use the canister supplied with  
the filter fitted: see picture opposite).  
Fill with distilled water from the canister provided,  
up to the MAX mark inside the container.  
Push filler neck and drawer with condensed water  
container back in.  
When dry, all textiles not specifically prohibi-  
ted in the chapter ‘Sorting and preparing  
laundry’ may be treated with the ProSteam  
System. Wet textiles may only be treated if  
they are labelled as suitable for dry pro-  
grammes.  
Water recirculation system  
This system allows you to use for a ProSteam cycle the condensed water automatically  
collected in the condense water tank during a drying cycle.  
The water in the condense water tank will never automatically fill the steam water tank.  
The water recirculation system works only if it is supplied by water arising during standard  
drying cycles.  
To activate this system turn the valve to the ON position. When the valve is ON the steam  
water tank will be filled during the next drying cycle. Water will be supplied by the water  
circuit directly to the steam water tank filling it automatically.  
To activate recirculation set valve to the ON position. To do that:  
1. Pull drawer containing condensed water  
container out a little. Behind the drawer  
there are two elements:  
1 steam water inlet - for manual refill-  
ing of steam water container.  
2 water recirculation system valve/fil-  
ter.

All information on applications is for guidance only. Smoothing results may vary  
depending on the selected programme and especially the fittings and material  
properties of the textile. The results can be improved if necessary by using different  
programmes and steam volumes. For example, some textiles containing more than  
20% synthetic but with the right fittings may behave more like cotton textiles in a  
ProSteam programme. You may therefore get better smoothing results by selecting  
a cotton ProSteam programme.  
Given the wide range of different textile grades and properties that can be manu-  
factured today using different mechanical and chemical processes, we recommend  
running the first few ProSteam programmes at low steam levels and with a small  
number of garments that are as similar as possible. Later, you can carefully start  
to vary the conditions of ProSteam programmes to learn from experience how to  
get the best results from the volume of laundry loaded, the quality of the textiles  
and the most suitable steam levels and ProSteam programmes. Please also note the  
accompanying "Textile Guide".

All information provided on selecting the steam level and corresponding load are  
suggestions only. In some cases, using a higher steam level or smaller load may give  
better results. The refresh programmes are gentle ProSteam programmes for non-  
washable textiles. Any distortion to the shape of a garment which might occur in  
few cases, can be remedied by ironing.

Selecting the programme  
Use the programme selector to settheprogramme  
you require. The estimated programme duration  
(in hours and minutes) appears in the multi-dis-  
play as well as cycle finish time.  
Select STEAM LEVEL  
To achieve the best results, different steam levels are required for different volumes  
of laundry.  
The STEAM LEVEL button is used to set the required steam quantity of: MIN, MED  
or MAX.  
All ProSteam programmes, apart from the REFRESH programmes, automatically recognize  
the remaining dampness in clothes. When laundry is wet, a drying cycle is activated first if  
required. The table shows the steam levels appropriate for the selected load, under STEAM  
LEVEL.  
Press the STEAM LEVEL button repeatedly until the desired steam level (MIN, MED or MAX)  
is shown in the display.  
If the STEAM LEVEL button is not pressed after a ProSteam programme is selected, the  
medium steam level (MED) is selected automatically. If you select a REFRESH programme,  
MIN is selected automatically.  
If in doubt, always select a lower steam level first until you have more experience  
with load volumes, fabric types and the corresponding optimum steam level. If too  
high steam level is selected, garments may lose their shape. If too low steam level  
is selected, creases may remain.  
Selecting additional options  
The additional options available for the ProSteam programmes are LONG ANTICREASE,  
BUZZER, SPIN SPEED1) and the CHILD LOCK.

SPIN SPEED  
If the washing in the washing machine was initially drained prior to the ProSteam cycle,  
the dryer can be set according to the spin speed of the initial drainage procedure. The higher  
the spin speed was, the shorter the programme length for the drying cycle.  
Activate the SPIN SPEED option and then number of times press OPTION button until the  
desired spin speed of the initial drainage is displayed. No value is shown if no spin speed is  
selected.  
In certain programmes the spin speed has not effect (time controlled cycles), its selection  
can be not selectable and only three dashes are visualized. Available selections: from 800  
to 1800 rpm's in 100 rpm's intervals.  
The maximum value depends by selected program, the minimum is always 800 rpm  
For those programs where the spin speed has no effect (time controlled cycles), the selection  
is not allowed and three dashes “- - -” are displayed that has the meaning of not set or  
unknown.  
The user interface always remembers last spin selection, and proposes it as default for all  
new selected programs. If memorized spin speed is greater than maximum allowed value  
it will be automatically reduced to max spin speed available for the selected program.  
Setting DELAY function

Changing the bulb for interior lighting  
Only use a special bulb which is designed specially for dryers. The special bulb can be  
obtained from your local service centre.  
When the appliance is switched on, the interior lighting switches itself off after 4 minutes  
when the door is open.  
WARNING!  
Do not use standard bulbs! These develop too much heat and may damage the machine!  
Before replacing the bulb, disconnect the mains plug; with a permanent connection: fully  
unscrew or deactivate the fuse.  
1. Unscrew cover above the bulb (this can be found directly behind the loading aperture,  
at the top; refer to “Description of machine” section.)  
2. Replace defective bulb.  
3. Screw cover back down.  
Check the correct positioning of o-ring gasket before screwing back the door light cover.  
Do not operate the dryer when missing o-ring gasket on door light cover.  
WARNING!  
For safety reasons, the cover must be screwed down tightly. If this is not done, the dryer  
must not be operated.

Hints for test institutes  
Parameters possible to be checked by the Test Institutes:  
• Energy consumption (corrected with final humidity) during the cupboard dry cotton  
cycle with nominal load.  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
38 Installation  
• Energy consumption (corrected with final humidity) during the cupboard dry cotton  
cycle with half load.  
• Final humidity (during cupboard dry cotton, iron dry cotton and cupboard dry easy care)  
• Condensationefficiency(corrected withfinalhumidity)duringcupboarddrycottoncycle  
with nominal and half load (with valve/filter of the water recirculation system in OFF  
position).  
All the cycles have to be checked in accordance with EN 61121 (Tumble dryers for household  
use – Methods for measuring the performance).  
Installation  
The appliance must be moved in vertical position for transport.  
Appliance positioning  
• It is recommended that, for your convenience, the machine is positioned close to your  
washing machine.  
• The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place, where dirt does not build up.  
• Air must be able to circulate freely all round the appliance. Do not obstruct the front  
ventilation grille or the air intake grilles at the back of the machine.  
• To keep vibration and noise to a minimum when the dryer is in use, it should be placed  
on a firm, level surface.  
• Once in its permanent operating position, check that the dryer is absolutely level with  
the aid of a spirit level. If it is not, raise or lower the feet until it is.  
• The feet must never be removed. Do not restrict the floor clearance through deeppile  
carpets, strips of wood or similar. This might cause heat built-up which would interfere  
with the operation of the appliance.  
The hot air emitted by the tumble dryer can reach temperatures of up to 60°C. The appliance  
must therefore not be installed on floors which are not resistant to high temperatures.  
When operating the tumble dryer, the room temperature must not be lower than +5°C and  
higher than +35°C, as it may affect the performance of the appliance.  
WARNING!  
Should the appliance be moved, it must be transported vertically.  
WARNING!  
The appliance must not be installed behind the lockable door, a sliding door or a door with  
a hinge on the opposite side to that of the appliance.
