The Siemens iQ700 WQ46B2CXGB heat pump tumble dryer is not only efficient, it will also take the very best care of all your clothes as well. With a self cleaning condenser, Auto Dry technology and an A+++ energy rating, it's packed with plenty of clever features that'll help to make every laundry day a breeze. The Interior Drum Light will give you a full view inside thanks to the illuminated drum.

The WQ46B2CXGB is eligible for Siemens' 5 year manufacturer warranty, which covers all manufacturing and material faults, so don't forget to register yours here for added peace of mind.

The selfCleaning condenser keeps your machine energy-efficient by removing fluff from the system. All you need to do is empty the filter when it is full.

The LED drum light turns on when the appliance has been switched on, after opening and closing the door and when the dryer programme starts. The lights switch off automatically to save energy.

Smart sensors control and monitor your washing to ensure even, gentle drying. Temperature sensors avoid overheating, while moisture sensors measure the humidity of the materials, preventing clothes from over-drying. Your washing is dried gently and precisely, meaning reduced energy consumption and less time spent on ironing.

The smartFinish programme uses gentle steam to reduce wrinkles and cut down the time you need to spend on ironing. Even badly wrinkled shirts and blouses are significantly smoothed out. With the bed linen programme, the drum rotation changes direction and stops large pieces of washing from getting tangled up. For laundry loads up to 3.5 kg, it can be selected as an automatic programme.

Use the varioSpeed option to significantly speed up the drying cycle for selected programmes. With varioSpeed, you can reduce drying time by up to 40%, so your clothes are ready faster. The half load feature optimises the duration of smaller loads based on the selected programme.

The rapid40 programme carefully dries a 1kg load in just 40 minutes, while constantly measuring moisture levels throughout the cycle. This is ideal for synthetic fibres, light cotton or mixed fabrics (non-sensitive textiles). Use it with the rapid15 wash programme to get freshly cleaned clothes in under an hour.

Outdoor clothes need to be handled gently, especially while drying. Glued seams, material coatings and water-repellent fabrics are particularly heat-sensitive. The outdoor programme maintains a low constant temperature, and humidity is constantly measured, so your clothes are dried perfectly.

The wool/shoe basket is securely hooked into the machine in a horizontal position and does not rotate with the drum. Gentle and uniform distribution of the warm air means that a thick woollen pullover is dry in two hours at most.

The softDry drum system protects your delicate clothes. Ensuring a constant airflow and a stable temperature, it contains wave-like paddles to evenly and gently distribute warm air. The drum structure allows the laundry to glide over the drum as if floating on a cushion of air.

Thanks to the exchangeable door hinge, you can change the door opening direction to suit your needs – left or right. Place your dryer wherever you like, next to your washing machine or on top of it, without any restrictions.

Technology is progressing constantly. Step by step, more appliances are becoming connected and intelligent. With Wi-Fi-enabled Siemens home appliances and Home Connect, this development is finally making its way into your home. The combination of connected appliances, intelligent software and an intuitive app offers a wide range of options. Some of these ease your workload, while others open up completely new possibilities. All of them make everyday life more efficient and comfortable than ever before.

With the Home Connect app, your washing machine can directly communicate with your dryer. This intelligent feature enables the washing machine to communicate the load, fabric type and remaining moisture. So your dryer can automatically adapt its cycle based on the information received.
