ENERGY SAVING TIPS  
To save energy, time and money, Bosch recommends  
OPERATING TIPS  
l
Follow the fabric care labels on the clothing.  
the following:  
l
Avoid very small loads. When only one or two items  
need drying, add a few similar items to improve  
drying efficiency.  
l
Always spin dry the laundry in the washer at the  
highest recommended speed for the fabric type.  
The highest spin speed will result in a dryer load and  
shorten the drying time and amount of energy  
required to dry the load.

l
l
Do not mix heavyweight and lightweight clothing.  
Do not dry wool or fabrics with a wool content  
Do not dry fabrics that do not allow the free passage  
of air (for example, GORETEX)  
l
l
Spin dry delicate washing before tumble drying.  
Load the dryer properly. Do not exceed the maximum  
load (see CYCLE SELECTION CHART).  
l
Do not dry delicate fabrics such as, silk, synthetic net  
curtains, etc.  
l
Always clean the lint filter after each use of the dryer.

7. Select ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS, if desired  
Note: If using the Auto program at the beginning  
of the cycle there will be numerous rotations  
in each direction with complete stops in

for the following 35 minutes, rotate at brief  
intervals to prevent wrinkling (Anti-Crease).  
After 35 minutes this feature will cease its  
function. It is recommended that the dryer  
be unloaded no later than 35 minutes after  
completion of program to avoid wrinkling.  
‘‘End of Cycle Signal’’  
When the ‘‘End of Cycle Signal’’ button, see Figure 5,  
is activated there will be a signal sounded at regular  
intervals at completion of the selected program.  
The volume level of the sound may be changed by  
holding the button in until desired volume level is  
reached. This volume level will be stored for future

Moisture Sensor  
Frost Protection (WTL models only)  
Occasionally the moisture sensors will need cleaning,  
due to a build-up of a fine layer of lime scale on the  
inside of the drum. This build-up of lime scale can be  
easily removed by wiping the sensors, the metal inserts  
in the paddles, and the inside of the drum with a soft  
cloth soaked in vinegar (use white vinegar).  
See Figure 10.  
The WTL models, since they remove moisture by  
condensing the water out of the air and then pumping  
the water to drain, should never be installed in an area  
subject to freezing. Also, if the dryer is to be transported  
where it would be subjected to freezing the dryer must  
be completely emptied of water before transporting.  
Figure 10.

Exhaust ducts should be as straight as possible.  
Exhaust ducting longer than recommended can extend  
drying time, can collect lint and may effect dryer  
performance. Joints should be secured with duct tape.  
DO NOT use screws to secure joints as lint can collect  
on the screws. See Step 4, Exhaust Duct, in following  
section titled INSTALLATION for recommended routing  
and duct length calculations.  
As an additional accessory for purchase, Bosch offers  
a stacking kit for a Bosch washer and dryer that  
incorporates a pull-out-tray. The tray offers an area for  
folding and easier unloading of the dryer. See your local  
dealer for availability and price.

The ducting system of the dryer, for optimum  
performance, should be as short as possible with  
a minimum number of elbows. Your WTA 3510 electric  
vented dryer will work best when the venting system has  
as few restrictions to the flow of air as possible.  
Whether installing to an existing venting system or a new  
venting system, make sure that all ducting is clean and  
free of lint and does not exceed the length per elbows as  
shown in Table 1, below:
