CONGRATULATIONS

You are now the proud owner of one of the finest and most modern tumble dryers that
today’s technology can produce. You and your machine are going to make a great team
together. But first it will pay if you really get to know each other. This book will tell you
all you need to know about your tumble dryer, what it will do and how to do it. Please
read all the instructions carefully before operating the machine.

INSTALLATION

• Unpack the tumble dryer and dispose of the packaging in a responsible manner.

• Open the door and remove the tape holding the transit clip.

• Remove the wall mounting bracket kit and wipe the inside of the drum to remove any dust

that may have entered the drum during transport and storage.

• Ensure that the lint filter and guard are fitted correctly.

DO NOT INSTALL THE DRYER IN A CUPBOARD

OR SMALL UNVENTED LAUNDRY UNLESS YOU USE A VENTING KIT,

AS OVERHEATING AND POOR DRYING WILL RESULT

You can choose to install your dryer:

• On the floor,

• On a work bench,

• On a wall, upside down using the brackets supplied.

Wall mounting:

• The brackets supplied for mounting the dryer on a wall fit

into the two slots at the back of the dryer.

• Mark and drill the mounting holes in the wall using the

supplied template.

• Bolt the brackets on the wall using rawlplugs

• Hang the dryer upside down on the brackets by the two

slots at the back of the dryer.

• The name badge may be rotated by prying it free using a

thin bladed knife. Reverse the badge and clip it back into
the panel.

Note:

The control panel decal does not require rotation when the
dryer is mounted upside down

HELPFUL HINTS

• Make sure that the vertical surface or wall is capable of supporting a fully loaded

dryer—approximately 45 kg.

• Leave a minimum clearance of 15mm. above the dryer so that it may be lifted on and

off the brackets easily.

• If you wish to mount the dryer above a top loading washing machine, leave enough

space below the dryer to open and close the lid.

Note:

• You can position the exhaust air vent at the back of the machine to remove air

upwards or sideways. See diagram.

• Remove the two screws and place the exhaust vent in the new position. Align the

holes with the dimples as shown and replace the screws.

• Do not attempt to lift or lower the dryer by yourself as it may slip and cause damage

rather get someone to help you.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

• The dryer is designed to operate on a 230 volt, 50 Hz, 15 Amp, AC power supply.

• The machine should be connected to an earthed 3 pin wall socket.

• If the power cord should ever need replacing, use only a genuine cord available from

the nearest Defy Service Centre.

• Do not use double adaptors, extension cords or portable electrical outlets due to the

hazards associated with water splashes and moisture ingress.

The appliance must be earthed and the manufacturer and seller do not

accept responsibility for any damage due to incorrect electrical connection.
