Installation
requirements
IMPORTANT: This dryer must be
installed such that the air inlets and
outlets are not restricted (fig. 1).
1 - Supply cord
2 - Air inlets
3 - Air outlets
There should be a gap of at least 12 mm
(0.5 inches) between the sides rear and base
of the machine and the surrounding walls,
cabinets and floor.
To ensure adequate ventilation the space
between the bottom of the machine and the
floor must not be obstructed.
NEVER install the dryer up against
curtains.
Prevent items from falling or collecting
behind and beneath the dryer as these may
obstruct the air inlets and outlets.
Preparing the load
Before using the dryer for the first time
wipe the inside of the drum and door with a
damp cloth.
Make sure that the laundry you are going to
dry is suitable for drying in a tumble dryer,
as shown by the care symbols on each item.
Clothes preparation
Check that all fastenings are closed and that
pockets are empty. Turn the articles inside
out. Place clothes loosely in the drum to
make sure that they don’t get tangled.
Do not overload the drum, particularly
when drying large items, otherwise, the
laundry may stick to the drum and not dry
evenly.
Maximum drying weight
● Cottons Max. 6 kg
● Synthetics Max. 3 kg
Sort the load as follows:
A) By care symbols
On the collar or inside seam:
Suitable for tumble drying.
Tumble drying at high temperature.
Tumble drying at low temperature only.
Do not tumble dry.
B) By amount and thickness
Whenever the load is bigger than the
dryer capacity, separate clothes
according to thickness (e.g. towels
from thin underwear).
C) By type of fabric
Cottons/linen: Towels, cotton jersey,
bed and table linen.
Synthetics: Blouses, shirts, overalls,
etc. made of polyester or polyamid, as
well as for cotton/synthetic mixes.
6
40000299English.fm Page 7 Thursday, August 21, 2003 4:07 PM
ENGLISH
D) By drying level
● Sort into: iron dry, cupboard dry, etc.
● For delicate articles press the
‘DELICATES’ button to select low
drying temperature ( ).
● For airing or drying very delicate
articles select the airing option on the
dial ( ).
Do not tumble dry:
Woollens, silk, delicate fabrics, nylon
stockings, delicate embroidery, fabrics
with metallic decorations, garments with
PVC or leather trimmings, training shoes,
bulky items such as sleeping bags, etc.
IMPORTANT: Do not dry articles
which have been treated with a dry
cleaning fluid or rubber clothes (danger
of fire or explosion).
Energy saving
Only put into the tumble dryer laundry
which has been thoroughly wrung or spindried. The drier the laundry the shorter the
drying time thus saving electricity.
ALWAYS try to dry the maximum weight
of laundry, this will save time and
electricity.
NEVER exceed the maximum weight, this
will waste time and electricity.
ALWAYS check that the filter is clean
before every drying cycle as this aids
efficiency.
NEVER put dripping wet items into the
tumble dryer, this may damage the
appliance and waste time and efficiency.
Opening the door
Pull on handle to open the door (fig. 2).
WARNING!
WHEN THE TUMBLE DRYER
IS IN USE THE DRUM AND
DOOR MAY BE VERY HOT.
To restart the dryer, close the door and
press the ‘ON’ button ().
Filter
IMPORTANT: To maintain the
efficiency of the dryer check that the
fluff filter is clean before each drying
cycle.
1. Pull the filter upwards (fig. 3).
2. Open filter as shown (fig. 4).
3. Gently remove lint using a soft brush or
your fingertips.
4. Snap the filter together and push back

Water Container
The water removed from the laundry
during the drying cycle is collected in a
container at the bottom of the dryer.
We recommend that the container is
emptied after each drying cycle.
To remove the container:
1. Gently pull the bottom of the kickplate
so that it unclips from the dryer (fig. 5).
The top section can then be unhinged
allowing the kickplate to be completely
removed.
2. Pull firmly on the handgrip and slide
the water container out of the dryer
(fig. 6). Support the container with both
hands. When full, the water container
will weigh about 4 kg (fig. 7).
3. Open the lid located on the top of the
container and empty the water (fig. 8).
4. Refit the lid and slide the water
container back into position. PUSH
FIRMLY INTO PLACE.
5. Refit the kickplate by engaging the
hinges at the top and ‘snapping’ the
lower clips into place.
Condenser
IMPORTANT: Always switch off and
remove the plug from the electricity
supply before cleaning the condenser.
To maintain the efficiency of the dryer
regularly check that the condenser is
clean.
To remove the condenser:
1. Remove the kickplate (fig. 5).
2. Turn the two locking levers anticlockwise (fig. 9).
3. Pull out the condenser unit (fig. 10).
4. Gently remove any dust or fluff with a
cloth, then wash the unit by holding it
under a running tap (fig. 11) turning it
so that water flows between the plates,
to remove any dust or fluff.
5. Refit the condenser ensuring it is
pushed firmly into place. Lock the two
levers by turning them clockwise.
6. Refit the kickplate.

Operation
1. Open the door and load the drum with
laundry. Ensure that garments do not
hinder closure of the door.
2. If drying delicate items press the
‘DELICATES’ button to reduce the
heat level. Press again on completion,
to select high temperature.
HIGH Heat setting
LOW Heat setting
3. Turn ‘DRYING TIME’ dial until the
required drying time aligns with the
symbol ▼.
The Pre-ironing setting shown by the
symbol on the ‘DRYING TIME’
dial provides a conditioning and anticrease function. The dryer will heat the
load for 9 minutes followed by a 3
minute cool down period and is
especially good for garments which
may have been left for some time prior
to ironing, in a linen basket for
example. Garments may also become
stiffened when dried outside on a
washing line or inside on radiators. The
PRE-IRONING process relaxes the
creases in the fabric making ironing
quicker and easier.
4. Gently close the door pushing it slowly
until you hear the door ‘click’ shut.
5. Press the ‘ON’ button. The indicator
will light and the drying cycle begins.
6. The load is dried by tumbling in
thermostatically controlled warm air.
Cool air is used for the last 10 minutes
to reduce creasing and cool the load
ready for handling.
7. When the program is fully completed
the drum will stop rotating and the dial
will point to the symbol ▼.
Open the door and remove the load.
WARNING!
THE DRUM, DOOR AND LOAD
MAY BE VERY HOT.
8. Clean the filter and empty the water
container after every drying cycle to
ensure maximum dryer efficiency.
(See ‘Filter’ and ‘Water Container’
sections.)
9. Clean the condenser after
approximately every 10 drying cycles
to ensure maximum dryer efficiency.
(See ‘Condenser’ section.)
