Important Information
Your dryer is designed to be particularly energy efficient. Its technical features include a
refrigeration circuit, which uses energy efficiently in a similar way to a refrigerator.
The dryer's heat exchanger is cleaned automatically during drying.
The fluff filters and filter in the condensate container must be cleaned regularly.
Never operate the dryer without the fluff filters and without filter in condensate container.
ʑ
Fluff filters
During drying, fluff and hair from the laundry is trapped by the fluff filter. Blocked fluff filters
may impair the heat exchange process.
The fluff filters must therefore be cleaned after every drying cycle. Rinse regularly under
running water a page 4.
ʑ
Filter in the condensate container
The filter in the condensate container cleans the condensation. This condensation is required
for the automatic cleaning process. The filter should be cleaned regularly under running
water. Empty the condensate container before cleaning the filter a page 4/9.
ʑ
Fabrics
Do not dry any fabrics that have come into contact with solvents, oil, wax, grease or paint:
e.g. hair styling products, nail varnish remover, stain remover, cleaning solvent. etc.
Empty all pockets.
Do not dry non-breathable fabrics.
Avoid drying items that produce a lot of fluff.
Woollens should be refreshed only, using the woollens programme.

the drying result a page 6.
– Knitted fabrics (e.g. T-shirts, jerseys) often shrink slightly the first time they are tumble-dried.
aDo not use the Very Dry programme.

impairs drying.

softener as specified in the manufacturer's instructions.

speed, the shorter the drying time will be, thus less energy is consumed. Also spin easy-care
laundry.

Frequently Asked Questions about Bosch WTW863S1GB Dryer
Our support team searches for useful product information and answers to frequently asked questions. If you find an inaccuracy in our frequently asked questions, please let us know by using our contact form.
Why is de drum of my dryer larger than that of my washing machine, even though they have the same capacity? Verified
To properly dry laundry, a dryer needs to have air. This needs space and that's why the drum needs to be larger.
This was helpful (2993) Read moreWhat is the difference between a condenser dryer and a vented dryer? Verified
In a condenser dryer the condensed water vapour is drained and collected in an internal reservoir. In a vented dryer the hot, moist air is drained through a hose, for example out of a window. A vented dryer is cheaper to use than a condenser dryer
This was helpful (857) Read moreCan I stack my dryer and washing machine? Verified
In general it is possible to directly stack a dryer and washing machine directly on top of each other. This only works with front loading models. However, it is advisable to use a fitting accessory to do so. This will prevent the machines from vibrating and falling off and also prevents damage to the bottom machine.
This was helpful (689) Read moreCan I connect a dryer to an extension cord? Verified
Appliances that require large amounts of power, like a dryer, can not be connected to all extension cords. See what the power usage of the dryer is, which is indicated in Watt, and check if the extension cord can handle this. There are extension cords with thicker cables that are made to handle larger appliances.
This was helpful (534) Read moreWhat is the difference in usage between a washer-dryer and a separate washing machine and dryer? Verified
The biggest advantage of a washer-dryer is that it takes less space. However, a separate dryer will be able to dry more than a washer-dryer. A washer-dryer also uses relatively more energy and requires more time.
