When the dryer is fitted under a work surface, allow space for air to exit the rear grille, a 15mm gap each side of the dryer is recommended. This airflow is essential to condense the water produced drying the washing, the dryer will not operate efficiently in an enclosed space or cupboard. If using your dryer in a small or cold room some condensation could be experienced. DO NOT use 2-way adaptors or extension leads. HINGE HINGE DOOR LATCH DOOR CATCH Door Reversal The door of your Dryer is reversible and can easily be changed. Instructions Exchange diagonally hinge brackets and blanking plugs. Exchange door latch and catch with their opposite blanking plates. See diagram above. How to use your dryer 1. Plug in, switch on electricity. WARNING: WHEN SWITCHING ON OR OFF, PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOUR HANDS ARE DRY 2. Sort your laundry (see section “Sorting Your Laundry”) 4. Always check by pressing and 3. Open the door the following: releasing the front panel in the position shown. FLUFF FILTER is clean and in place WATER CONTAINER is empty and in place CONDENSER is clean and in place 5. Load the dryer placing the clothes carefully in the drum pushing them well towards the back and away from the door seal. Close the door. 6. Select the rele-7. Select the vant heat setting required programme (see section “The or drying time. (see Controls”) section “The Controls”) 8. Press the START switch to commence the drying programme. 9. When finished open the door and take out the laundry. Clean and replace the fluff filter, and empty the water container. 10.Switch off electricity and remove plug from socket. WARNING: WHEN SWITCHING ON OR OFF, PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOUR HANDS ARE DRY The ‘Cool Tumble’ phase About 10 minutes before the programme is completed, the heating elements will be switched off and the programme enters the final ‘Cool Tumble’ phase. During this phase the fabric is cooled. You should always allow the dryer to complete this phase. By opening the door you can check the dryness of the load as often as you wish and if you want to remove some items before they are fully dry. (This is particularly useful for a mixed load where you want to iron some items, but others are to be fully dried.) You will need to press the start button after closing the door to re-start the programme. See section ‘The Controls’. The Controls Start switch Empty water light Setting the timer Selecting the required Heat Setting Starting the Dryer TimerControl Heat Selection Switch The drying time for both heat settings is controlled by the timer. All you have to do is turn the Timer Control clockwise until the required time appears in line with the indicator. NEVER WIND THE TIMER CONTROL ANTI-CLOCKWISE. The “Guide to Drying Times” section will tell you how much time you’ll need for various loads. To select high heat (Cottons), the Heat Selection switch must be IN. To select Low heat (Acrylics and Synthetics) the Heat Selection switch must be OUT. See section “Guide to Drying Times”. Press and release the START button to commence a drying program (The drying time must have been selected first). NOTE: If the door is opened during a programme the Dryer will automatically stop. To continue the programme after closing the door, the START button must be pressed. Empty Water Light This light will glow when the water container is full. You should not wait for this light to glow before emptying the water container, but empty it after each load (see section “Emptying the Water Container”). NOTE: When the light glows you must stop the dryer and empty the water container. If the water light glows during a drying cycle the timer will advance to the Cool Tumble Phase without drying the load. The light will take approximately 10 seconds to go out after replacing the empty container. Sorting your laundry 1. Always separate laundry into the correct fabric groups before washing and drying. 2. See that all zips are closed, hooks and eyes are fastened and belt, strings etc. are tied loosely in bows, you will normally have done this for each item before the washing stage. 3. It is important to extract as much water as possible from each item before drying. This saves you time and money. Maximum load size WARNING: CLOTHES SHOULD NEVER BE LOADED DRIPPING WET 4. Make sure that the items to be dried are suitable for tumble drying, or are not of a type requiring ‘special attention’ (see“Wash Care Labels” section). Your dryer will hold a load of 6kg (13lb) dry weight of natural fabrics. if you are drying items of man-made fibres (synthetic or acrylics), the maximum load should not exceed 3kg (6.6lb) dry weight. This difference is that man-made fibres require more space to tumble- dry without creasing. WARNING: DO NOT OVERLOAD AS THIS COULD RESULT IN REDUCED DRYING PERFORMANCE AND A POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD. Typical load To help you estimate how many items it takes to make up a drying load, the charts below show the approximate weights of some everyday washing items. Cloth...
