8. HINTS AND TIPS
8.1 Ecological hints
• Do not use fabric softener to wash and
then dry. In the tumble dryer laundry
becomes soft automatically.
• Use the condensate as distilled water,
e.g. for steam ironing. If necessary
clean the condensate before (e.g. with
a coffee filter) to remove possible
small pieces of fluff.
• Always keep the airflow slots on the
bottom of the appliance clear.
• Use the load volumes specified in the
programmes chapter.
• Make sure that is good airflow in the
appliance installation position.
• Clean the filter after each drying cycle.
• Spin good the laundry before drying.
8.2 Water hardness and
conductivity
Water hardness can be different for dif-
ferent locations. Water hardness has an
effect on the water conductivity and the
operation of the conductivity sensor in
the appliance. If you know the value of
the water conductivity you can adjust the
sensor to dry with the better results.
To change the sensor conductivity:
1.
Turn the programme dial to availa-
ble programme.
2.
Push at the same time the Dry Plus
(Drogen Plus) and the Anticrease
(Anti-kreuk) buttons. Hold down until
one of the symbols go into view on
the display:

9. CARE AND CLEANING
9.1 Cleaning the filter
At the end of each cycle the filter LED is
on to tell you that the filter must be
cleaned.
low conductivity <300 μS/
–
moderate conductivity
300-600 μS/cm
–
high conductivity >600
μS/cm
3.
Push the Start Pause (Start/Pauze)
button again and again until you set
necessary level.
4.
To memorise the setting push at the
same time the Dry Plus (Drogen
Plus) and the Anticrease (Anti-kreuk)
buttons.
8.3 Water container full —
indication
By default the indication LED is always
on. It comes into the view at the end of
the cycle or when the water container is
full. When you use an external equip-
ment to drain the container, the LED can
be off.
To activate or deactivate the indication:
1.
Turn the programme dial to availa-
ble programme.
2.
Push at the same time the Dry Plus
(Drogen Plus) and Buzzer (Zoemer)
buttons and hold down until you see
the correct setting:
– the LED is off and the symbol
goes into the view - The
LED is permanently off
– the LED is on and the symbol
goes into the view - The
LED is activated
The filter collects the fluff. The
fluff occurs while the cloths are
dried in the tumble dryer.
