AEG LAVATHERM 3200 Operating Instructions Manual page 6

- Articles containing foam rubber or similar materials must also not
be machine-dried. The dryer may catch fire.
- Fabrics containing residues of hair spray, nail varnish remover,
hair setting lotion, or similar agents should not be machine-dried
owing to the danger of gas formation.
- If so-called "conditioners" are machine-dried - regardless of the
respective properties of these conditioners - coating of the fluff
filter sufficient to cause choking cannot be excluded. In such
cases, we recommend you not to add them or to choose a dif¬
ferent make.
- Machine-dried laundry becomes fluffy and pleasant to touch. If
you want to make a contribution to relief of the environment, you
can therefore omit fabric conditioners during washing of your
laundry.
- Should you use perfume-free or so-called fragrance-free eco/bio-
detergents, your laundry may possibly have an unusual odour
after drying, i. e. your laundry lacks "freshness". This is not due to
any defect in your machine, but refers to odours inherent in the
fabrics themselves, which, owing to absence of fragrances in the
detergent, are not neutralized or masked.
- Make sure that no garments get jammed when closing my door,
since the fabrics may be damaged.
- I am able to operate only, when my door is closed. If my door is
open, a safety switch prevents me from starting.
- You will perhaps be amazed at the amount of fluff trapped in my
fluff filter after drying. This fluff, however, is
not
the result of over¬
stressing of your laundry by the drum action, but during to a
normal process of wear and tear. When your laundry is being
worn or washed, fibres becomes detached from the fabrics by
abrasion. These are carried away by the wind if your laundry is
line-dried. In your tumble dryer, however, these fibres are con¬
centrated in the fluff filter. The fraction of fluff actually collected
during machine-drying amounts to only 0.03 kg per kg laundry.
- To clean my stainless steel drum, you never use any acid-con¬
taining descalers, chlorine- or iron-containing scouring agents,
or even steel wool. Our service centre stocks suitable agents.
- Also keep furniture polishes or agressive cleaners away from my
screen and control panel.
