THE CONTROLS
PREPARATION
A. THE TIMER
Select the required dryer time based on the
recommendations on the control panel.
B. ANTICREASE
If selected, this will minimize creasing by periodically
rotating the drum after the drying cycle has finished.
C. HEAT SWITCH
Select the required heat setting based on the
recommendations on the control panel.
D. START BUTTON
Press Start button after selecting the required drying time.
E. BOTTLE FULL NEON
This will light when the bottle needs emptying or when it is
incorrectly inserted.
F. FULL HEAT SELECT LIGHT
G. ANTI CREASE SELECT LIGHT
H. DRYER ON LIGHT
Lights will not illuminate until the timer has been set and the
start button pressed.
Check care labels inside the garments.
CARE LABELS YOU MAY FIND ON YOUR FABRICS
Do not tumble dry woollen or wool mixture articles unless the
article is labelled to be suitable due to a possibility of shrinkage.
Roll dripping wet articles in a towel to remove excess water.
Place delicate articles e.g. tights, scarves, inside a pillowcase.
To avoid the need to iron easycare polyester/cotton items it is
better to only dry small loads (i.e half fill drum).
It is better to dry small and large articles together.
We suggest a fabric conditioner to be used to reduce static
electricity.
Do not overload the dryer or dry large bulky items such as duvets
or sleeping bags as it is important that the airflow through the
dryer is not obstructed.
Do not place items contaminated with inflammable substances in
the dryer, such as petrol, cleaning solvents, cooking oil, fat, or
hair lacquer. These can cause fires. For the same reason, do not
dry rubber, foam rubber, plastic or paper.
Suitable for tumble drying
Tumble dry using full heat
Tumble dry using half heat
Do not tumble dry
INSTALLATION
The illustration shows the minimum
space required by the dryer and the
position of the waste-pipe within
this space and behind the dryer. If a
trap is fitted it must not obstruct the
air inlet at the back of the dryer.
The waste pipe can be positioned
on either side of the dryer.
If the waste pipe is used by both
the dryer and a washing machine
then its diameter must be large
enough to contain both hoses - 1.5"
bore (38mm) minimum.
FINAL INSTALLATION
Push the filter into its operating
position as shown in the diagram.
If you wish to change the side on
which your door opens, see the
instructions on the back page.
Remove any dust by wiping the drum
and door with a damp cloth. Any initial
smell from the heater should disappear
after the first period of heating.
Position the tumble dryer so that the
plug remains accessible after
installation. Do not block the vent at
the front of the dryer, as this will impair
the working of the machine

OPERATION
Open the door.
Load clothes loosely into the drum.
Load sheets first, starting with one corner.
Close the door.
Dry your hands.
Check that the timer is in the `0' position.
Plug in the machine.
Select correct heat position (see programme chart on control
panel for recommendations).
Set the timer to the required time setting (see programme chart on
control panel for recommendations). Then press the start button.
The drum will begin rotating. Reversing drum models will stop
every few minutes to rotate in the reverse direction for a short
time.
Should the clothes become dry before the cycle has finished, or if
an excessive programme time has been selected, the drum will
continue to rotate while the thermostat will automatically switch
the heater off to prevent over-drying and save energy.
If the door is opened during a cycle the dryer will stop. To restart,
close the door and press the start button. When drying large items
such as sheets, we suggest you periodically stop the dryer to
redistribute the load.
There is an automatic 12 minute cool down period at the end of
every cycle, during which the heater is switched off. This helps to
minimise creasing.
NEVER SWITCH THE DRYER OFF AND LEAVE A
HOT LOAD IN THE DRUM.
AFTER REMOVING THE DRIED CLOTHES:
ALWAYS CLEAN THE FILTER.
Failure to do so could cause the safety cut-out to operate.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
ANY PROBLEMS
If the clothes are
not dry after normal drying time:
­
Check that you used the correct heat setting.
­
Check that you have not set the timer within a cool down
period.
­
Check that the lint filter has been cleaned. A blocked filter
will restrict the airflow.
­
Check that the condenser unit and associated duct work are
clean. If blocked these will restrict the airflow.
­
Check that your dryer is heating - below the door to the left
side, should feel warm to the touch after the first 10-15
minutes of its programme. Failure to heat may indicate the
safety cut-out has operated. To reset, simply press the red
button at the rear of the machine. If it has operated then a
sharp "click" will be heard. This cut-out only operates if the
airflow is severely restricted so make sure the filter is clean
and that all other restrictions are removed before re-starting.
If the cut-out continues to operate after checking the above
points, you should contact your service agent.
­
Check that the machine has the correct weight load in the
drum before starting the appliance.
If your machine
does not work check the following before
calling a service engineer:
­
Check that there is a supply of electricity.
­
Check that the door has been properly closed and the
machine is switched on.
­
Check that the water bottle has been withdrawn from, and
replaced into the machine.
­
Check the plug internal connections.

DRAINAGE OPTIONS
Your new tumble dryer is fitted with an internal drain pump, which
gives you the option of being able to drain condensed water to its
water bottle, or to your household waste pipe. Connecting your
dryer to a household waste pipe will mean you will not need to
periodically empty the water bottle. As supplied, the drier will drain
the water to its bottle. If you wish to convert the dryer so that its
water is diverted to a household waste pipe, follow the simple
instructions below:-
1/ Pull the drain hose from the valve at the top of the unit.
2/ Fit the drain hose into your household waste pipe, ensuring a
gap between the end of the hose and any water in the waste pipe.
To return your drier back to taking the condensed water to the
water bottle, simply fit the drain hose back to the valve at the top
of your drier.
If the drain hose is not long enough to reach your waste pipe, a
drain extension kit can obtained from your retailer (part number
4213 089 8778).

THE CONDENSER
The condenser and ducting should be cleaned 3 or 4 times a year
or more frequently if the dryer is in constant use. See "CLEANING
THE CONDENSER" opposite.
NOTE: The condenser will discolour through use.
REMOVING THE CONDENSER
­
Firmly pull the condenser out.
RE-INSTALLING THE CONDENSER
­
Carefully push the condenser back into the machine, until it
is pushed fully home and a "click" is heard.
­
Ensure all lint and fluff is removed from around the grille seal
before closing or water may leak.
­
IMPORTANT: The dryer may leak if the condenser is not
correctly re-installed.
CLEANING THE CONDENSER
CAUTION: For maximum efficiency, the plates are made from
very thin aluminium and are easily damaged. Do not try to poke
anything between the plates or use a hard object or tool for
cleaning. At all times, handle the condenser carefully and avoid
crushing the plates.
­
Remove the condenser (see opposite).
­
Flush the fluff from between the plates under running water
and carefully shake off excess water.
­
Whilst
the
condenser
is
removed, clean as much fluff
as possible from inside the
ducting by reaching a hand
into the machine. In particular,
keep the passage from the fan
clear (on the right hand side of
the condenser duct).
­
After cleaning, re-install the condenser (see opposite).
