Changing the programme after it has started

You can use this feature to dry your clothes under higher 

or lower temperatures after your dryer has started.

For example;

1.  Press and hold the “Start/Pause/Cancel” button for 

about 3 seconds to “Cancel” the programme in order 

to select “Extra Dry” programme instead of “Iron Dry” 

programme. 

2.  Select the “Extra Dry” programme by rotating the 

programme selection button.

3.  Press “Start/Pause/Cancel” button to start the 

programme.

C

 Press “Start/Pause/Cancel” button for 3 seconds 

to cancel the programme or turn the programme 

selection knob in any direction to end the programme 

while the machine is running. Water tank and filter 

cleaning warning lights turn on to warn the user when 

the programme is cancelled by pressing the “Start/

Pause/Cancel” button for 3 seconds. However, the 

warning lights do not turn on when the programme 

is cancelled by turning the programme selection 

knob. Only the drying light turns on and the machine 

remains in hold until a new programme is selected 

and the “Start/Pause/Cancel” button is pressed. Child-

proof lock of the machine should not be active in order 

to perform these two operations. If the child-proof 

lock is active, deactivate it before performing these 

operations.

Adding/removing laundry in standby mode

In order to add or remove laundry after the programme 

starts:

1.  Press the “Start/Pause/Cancel” button to switch the 

dryer to “Pause” mode. Drying process will stop.

2.  Open the door at “Pause” position and close it again 

after adding or taking out laundry.

3.  Press “Start/Pause/Cancel” button to start the 

programme.

C

 Any laundry added after the drying process has 

started may cause the dried clothes in the machine 

intermingle with wet clothes and the result will be wet 

laundry after the drying process is over.

C

 Laundry may be added or taken out as much as 

desired during a drying process, but this process will 

extend the programme duration and increase energy 

consumption since the drying will be interrupted 

continuously. Therefore, it is recommended to add 

laundry before the drying programme has started.
