IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS1.

1.1 Dryer Safety

Failure to follow these safety instructions could
damage the dryer or your clothes

You may then not be covered by warranty for
this damage.

Only plug this appliance directly into an AC
power supply, which is properly earthed and has
the correct voltage.

See the serial number sticker located on the
bottom of the door opening for voltage

information.
CAUTION : if this appliance is supplied form a
cord extension set or electrical portable outlet
device, the cord extension set or electrical
portable outlet device must be positioned or
that it is not subject to splashing
or ingress of moisture. For Safety reasons we
strongly advise against the use of double
adaptor, extension cords or power boards.

This appliance is not intended for use by

persons (including children) with reduced

physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack

of experience and knowledge, unless they

have been given supervision or instruction

concerning use of the appliance by a person

responsible for their safety.

Children should be supervised to ensure that

they do not play with the appliance.

IMPORTANT:

If the electrical cord of this appliance is damaged,
it must be replaced by the Manufacturer,
Authorised Service Agent or similarly qualified
person in order to avoid a hazard.

These dryers are for drying clothes, towels and linen
at home. Do not use them for any other purpose.

Lint must not be allowed to accumulate around
the tumble dryer.

Do not dry unwashed items in the tumble dryer.

WARNING:

Never stop a tumble dryer before the end of the
drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed
and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.

1.2 Fire Hazards

Some fabrics are not suitable for tumble drying.
The following MUST NOT be placed in your
dryer due to the risk of a fire or an explosion :

Items that have been spotted or soaked with
vegetable oil, cooking oil, suntan oil, linseed oil,
salad oil, lubrication oil or grease. Oil affected
items can ignite spontaneously, especially
when exposed to heat sources such as in a
tumble dryer.The items becomce warm,
causing as oxidation reaction in the oil.
Oxidationcreates heat. If heat cannot escape,
the items can become hot enough to ignite.
Pilling, stackingl or storing oil-affected items
can prevent heat from escaping and create a
fire hazard.If it is unavoidable that fabrics that
contain vegetable or cooking oil, or have been
contaminated by hair care products be placed
in a tumble dryer, they should first be washed is
hot water with extra detergent - this will reduce,
but not eliminate the hazard.
The final part of tumble dryer cycle occurs
without heat (Cooling cycle) to ensure that the
items are left at the temperature that ensures
that the items will not be damage.

Item that have previously been cleaned in,
washed in, or spotted with petrol/gasoline,
industrial chemicals used only for cleaning,
dry-cleaning solvents or other flammable or
explosive substances are highly flammable.
Highly flammable or explosive commonly found
aroundthe house include acetone, (nail polish
remover) denatured alcohol, petrol/gasoline,
kerosene,some spot removers, turpentine,
waxes and wax removers should not be put in
the dryer.Items containing foam rubber (also
known as latex foam) or similarly textured
rubber-like materials.Foam rubber materials
can produce fire by spontaneous combustion
when heated.

Rubber-backed articles, clothes fitted with foam
rubber pads, pillows, rubber boots and
rubber-coated sports shoes.

For your safety, and to reduce the risk of fire
or an explosion, DO NOT store or use petrol

or other inflammable vapours and liquids
near your dryer.

1.3 Cleaning The Lint Filter

LINT BUILD-UP IS A FIRE HAZARD

A clean lint filter reduces drying times, saves
energy and avoids overheating. Overheating
may also damage your clothes.

What happens If I forget to clean the lint filter?

You must clean this lint filter after every load.

1.4 Drying Guide

Your load, when dry must not exceed the rated
capacity

6.0 kg for the EDV605HQWA Dryer

(See page 11 for a table of average weights

It can be inserted into the pocket only one way
