INSTALLATION

Electrical Requirements

Tumble dryers are supplied to operate at a voltage of 220-240V, 50 Hz single phase. Check that the supply circuit is rated to at least 10A

Electricity can be extremely dangerous.

This appliance must be earthed. The socket outlet and the plug on the appliance must be of the same type.

Do not use multiple adapters and/or extension leads.

The plug should be a ccessible for disconnection after the appliance has been installed.

You may be charged for a service call if a

problem with your machine is caused by incorrect installation.

VENTILATION

Adequate ventilation must be provided in the room where the tumble dryer is located to prevent gases from appliances burning other fuels, including open fires, being drawn into the room during operation of the tumble dryer.

● Exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.

● Check regularly that the air flowing through the dryer is not restricted.

● Check the fluff filter after use, and clean, if necessary.

●The inlet and outlets should be kept free from obstructions. To ensure adequate ventilation the space between the bottom of the machine and the floor must not be obstructed. There should be a gap of at least 12mm between the machine and any obstructions.

DRAIN HOSE : FITTING INSTRUCTIONS

To avoid emptying the water container after each drying cycle, the water can be discharged directly to a waste water drain pipe (the same drainage system as household sinks). Water Bye-Laws prohibit connection to a surface water drain. The waste water drain pipe should be located adjacent to the tumble dryer.

The kit consists of:1 hose and 1 tap.

WARNING! Switch off and remove the

tumble dryer plug from the electricity supply before carrying out any work.

5. Pl a c e t h e t a p supplied by the kit to cl ose the re main g hose. .

6. Once the machine is in place the feet should be adjusted to ensure that the new hose does

not kink when pushing the tumble dryer into position.

Fit the Hose as Follows:

1.Ti lt the ma chi ne backwards.

2. The waste water

pipe is situated at the right-hand side of the machine (see t h e picture). A grey hose connects to the bridge

at the left hand side of the machine. Using

pliers, remove the pipe retaining clip from the bridge.

3. Pull the hose off the bridge connection.

4. Attach the black hose from the kit, (using the connector a n d p i p e c l i p s supplied), to the hose rem oved from the bridge connection.

7. Connect the new drain hose to the waste Water pipe.

8. Connect to the m a in s e le c tr i ci t y supply.

PREPARING THE LOAD

Before using the tumble dryer for the first time:

● Please read this instruction book thoroughly.

● Remove all items packed inside drum.

● Wipe the inside of the drum and door with a

damp cloth to remove any dust which may have settled in transit.

Clothes Preparation

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. 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 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).

During the last 15 minutes (roughly) the

load is always tumbled in cool air

Energy Saving

Only put into the tumble dryer laundry which has been thoroughly wrung or spin-dried. 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.

● Check that the filter is clean before every drying cycle.

NEVER

● Exceed the maximum weight, this will waste time and electricity.

● Put dripping wet items into the tumble dryer, this may damage the appliance.

Maximum Drying Weight

● Cottons Max. 8 kg

● Synthetics Max. 4 kg

Do not overload the drum, large items when wet can exceed the maximum admissible clothes load (for example: sleeping bags, duvets).

Sort the Load as Follows

● By care symbols

These can be found 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.

If the item does not have a care label it must be assumed that it is not suitable for tumble drying.

● By amount and thickness

Whenever the load is bigger than the dryer capacity, separate clothes according to thickness (e.g. towels from thin underwear).

● 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.

● By drying level

Sort into: iron dry, cupboard dry, etc. For delicate articles press the button to select low drying temperature.

Selector

The Candy Sensor Dry machine gives many options for drying the laundry to suit all circumstances. The table on the next page lists the programmes and the function of each programme.

Note: The sensor may not detect a small load of small articles. For small loads and separate items or pre-dried fabrics with low moisture content, use the timed programmes.

Set the programme between 30 and 75 minutes depending on the load size and dryness required, and select high or low heat depending upon the fabric type.

If the sensor does not detect the item the dryer will only operate for 10 minutes before going into cooldown. If the load is too large or too wet to tumble dry the dryer will automatically go into cooldown after approximately 3 hours.

DESCRIPTION

Select the degree of dryness that you require. This ranges from

for bath towels and bathrobes, through for items that will be

put away without ironing, to the programme that leaves the laundry suitable for ironing.

A gentle programme specially created to get woollens softer after air-drying.This delicate warm air cycle, lasting 12 minutes, can also be used to get woollens 'refreshed' after being stored in the wardrobe.

The No crease programme 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. This programme relaxes the creases in the fabric making ironing quicker and easier.

The 40’ Rapid programme allows a drying cycle to be completed quickly. This is an ideal programme for having dry, refreshed and ready-to-wear clothes in less than 40'. This special programme constantly monitors the dryness and temperature in the drum thanks to the sensor using, using the exact time and energy you need! The machine finishes the cycle when the cupboard dry level is reached. The stated cycle length could vary according to fabric types, load size and residual moisture in the garments.The maximum load is 2kg and the programme is suitable for all types of fabric where tumble drying is appropriate.

WATER CONTAINER

The water removed from the laundry during the drying cycle is collected in a container inside the door of the dryer. When the container is full the

indicator on the control panel will light, and the container MUST be emptied. However, we recommend that the container is emptied after each drying cycle. NOTE: Very little water will collect during the first few cycles of a new machine as an internal reservoir is filled first.

To Remove the Container

1. Gently pull out the w a t e r c o n t a i n e r holding the handle.

When it is full the water container will weigh about 6 kg.

2 . Ti l t t h e w a t e r container to empty the water out through the spout. When empty, replace the water container back as shown; first

insert the base of the container into position as shown then gentle pus h t he top into position.

3. Press Button to restart the cycle.

NOTE: If you have the option of drainage near to the dryer you can use the discharge kit to provide a permanent drainage for the water c o l l e c t ed i n t h e container of the dryer. This means that you

don't have to empty the

water container.

WARNING! If you open the door mid cycle, before the cool-down cycle has completed,the handle may be hot. Please use extreme caution when attempting to empty the water reservoir during the cycle.
