- When installing, position the appliance so that that the plug is accessible.
WARNINGS
- If you need to stop the tumble dryer before the end of a drying cycle, ensure that the load and appliance are cooled by utilizing the cooldown period denoted on the control panel. Once the load is removed, all items need to be quickly spread out so that any residual heat is dissipated.
- Remove all objects from pockets such as lighters and matches.

INSTALLATION
The tumble dryer is fully compatible with any 600mm deep kitchen units and complies with stringent EEC regulations.
Your dryer is provided with a vent hose which will extend to approx 2.4m (8ft). We strongly recommend that this is vented through the wall with the attachment provided. The position of the hole (100mm diameter) for the vent directly behind the tumble dryer is shown in the diagram.
If the through the wall vent is to be positioned other than behind the dryer, the vent hose should be positioned at floor level and through adjacent side panel to a relevant position. The plinth must be cut−out to accommodate the air vent grill at the bottom front of the tumble dryer.

IMPORTANT
The air vent at the front of the appliance must never be covered or blocked in any way as this will cause the dryer to overheat.
The dryer should not be placed directly next to ovens or cookers, as the performance of the dryer may be affected.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS: We strongly recommend that any electrical work is carried out by a qualified person complying with the IEE 17th addition of the electrical regulations.
IMPORTANT
Please remember that the tumble dryer must be capable of being switched off, (disconnected from the supply), when fitted in position.
THE FILTER
The filter is found, as seen from the diagram, by opening the door and must always be in position when drying items in the appliance. To allow the dryer to operate efficiently it should be cleaned after each drying cycle. Do not be alarmed by the amount of fluff deposited on the mesh. It is not due to excessive wear caused by the dryer but more an indication of it’s efficient operation.
All fabric loses fluff when drying but it goes unnoticed into the air. In a tumble dryer it simply collects in the filter.

OPERATION
Sort out the clothes into groups of similar fabrics and colours. Check the care label inside the garment. We suggest that a fabric conditioner be used to reduce static electricity.
Delicate articles e.g. tights should be placed inside a pillowcase. It is better to dry small and large articles together.
Open the door. Load clothes loosely into the drum. Load sheets first starting with one corner.
Close the door. Dry your hands. Check the timer is in the’0’ position. Switch on the machine.
Select correct heat position (See programme chart on facia panel). Set the timer to the correct position (See programme chart on facia panel). The standard cotton programme is suitable to dry normal wet cotton laundry. It is the most efficient programme in terms of energy consumption for drying wet cotton laundry.
Your appliance is a reversing, small door opening; a full load will typically take 115 minutes and will use approximately 3.92kWh of electricity. A half load will typically take 66 minutes and will use approximately 2.08 kWh of electricity.
The power consumption of the off−mode and the left−on mode is zero.
Press the start button. The drum will now begin to rotate and stop when the timer automatically reaches the `0’ position. Should the clothes become dry before the cycle has finished the thermostat will automatically switch off the heater and prevent overdrying and save energy although the drum will still rotate. When drying large items such as sheets, we suggest you stop the dryer to redistribute the load. To lengthen or shorten the programme, turn the timer knob.

After removing the dried clothes clean the filter as follows:
Pull the filter upwards. Remove any threat of fluff by hand or with a soft brush. Slide the filter back. Wash the filter occasionally in detergent solution and with a soft brush remove small particles. Switch off the electricity supply. The final part of the drying cycle occurs without heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that the items will not be damaged.

TROUBLESHOOTING
If the clothes are not dry after normal drying time:
- Check that the filter is clean.
- Check that you used the correct heat setting.
- Check that the venting hose is not blocked (sometimes a strong wind may cause a back pressure).
- Check that you have not set the timer within a cool down period.
If your machine does not work, check the following points before contacting the Free - phone service number.
- Check that there is a supply of electricity.
- Check that the machine is switched on and the door properly closed.
- Some machines are fitted with a resetable cut−out. Check this has not operated. If your dryer has a red button on the right hand side at the back if your dryer, press it. If it has operated the sharp ˆclick˜ 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 restarting.
- Check the fuse in the moulded plug.
