SAFETY AND WARNINGS

WARNING!
Electric Shock Hazard
Failure to follow this advice may result in electric shock or death.
• If you are using an extension cord or a portable electrical outlet device (eg multi-socket outlet box), ensure that it is positioned so that it does not come into contact with water or moisture.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS
READ AND SAVE THIS GUIDE
When using this appliance, follow basic precautions, including thefollowing:
General
z
The appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by a utility.
z
We do not recommend the use of extension cords or portable electrical outlet devices for safety reasons.
z
Do not touch or operate the machine with wet hands or with bare-feet.
z
A damaged power cord must be replaced by a Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard. The appliance must not be operated until it is repaired, as there is risk of electric shock.
z
Do not operate this machine if it has been damaged during transport. Contact your Fisher&Paykel dealer or Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician.
z
This dryer has been designed for domestic use only, not for commercial applications, such as massage/beauty clinics where there may be increased lint accumulation or flammable materials in the atmosphere or load.
z
The tumble dryer is intended only for drying textile material washed in water.
z
Undergarments that contain metal reinforcements should not be placed in the dryer. Damage to the dryer can result if the metal reinforcements come loose during drying. If you wish to dry these items use a drying rack or place in a garment bag.
z
Check and remove all objects from pockets, eg lighters and matches.
z
Never dry rubber articles, or any plastic items or film, eg plastic lined tablecloths andbaby bibs.
z
Clothes should go through the cool down/airing phase in the final part of the cycle. This ensures items are left at a temperature where they will not be damaged. Ifforany reason the dryer is stopped before the cycle has finished, dry clothes should be removed immediately and not left in the dryer. Clothes should be quickly spread out flat to cool so heat can dissipate, not left bunched up, eg in a clothes basket.
z
Do not operate this product without the lint filter in place or allow lint to accumulate in or around the dryer.
z
This dryer is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the dryer by a person responsible for their safety.
z
Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the dryer.
z
Unplug the machine from the power supply when it is not in use.
z
Do not swing on or put weight on the door.
z
In the event of a power outage your dryer will resume automatically when power is restored.
z
Never attempt to repair the dryer yourself.
z
Do not install the dryer behind a lockable door, sliding door, or behind a door where the hinge is on the opposite side to that of the dryer in such a way that the full opening of the door is inhibited. Ensure the dryer door can always be opened fully.
z
The only user-removable parts of the dryer are the filters and drying rack. No other parts are designed to be removed by anyone other than aFisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician.
z
For problems that cannot be solved from information in this user guide, turn off and unplug your dryer and contact a Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS
z
Exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.
z
Do not overload your dryer beyond its rated capacity:
MODEL MAXIMUM CAPACITY (KG)
DH9060P2 9
DH9060PG2 9
*Capacity refers to the maximum dry weight of items the dryer can dry at any one time
z
Never put dripping wet clothes in or on top of the dryer as excess water may cause an electrical hazard.
z
Do not under any circumstances dry an electric blanket or any other electrical, plastic or rubber items in your dryer, unless the care label specifically states it is safe to do so. Never dry these items at high temperatures.
z
Do not dry curtains in your dryer. Sunlight makes them brittle and they may disintegrate during drying.
z
Do not use the water collected in the water tank for drinking or food processing.
z
Never run the dryer without the water tank in place.
z
If the water tank becomes full, the tumble dryer will pause drying and will sound an alarm. You must empty the water tank before the dryer can continue drying. Empty the tank, replace it back in the housing then press to resume the cycle.
Lint
z
Accumulated lint in the dryer can become a fire hazard; it also reduces the efficiency of the dryer by causing longer drying times and increased power consumption.
z
Clean the lint filter before every load.
z
Ensure the area around the dryer is clear of lint.
z
At regular intervals have the interior of the dryer cleaned of any accumulated lint. This must be done by a Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician. This must be done when the dryer installation is changed from free standing.
z
If the lint filter becomes damaged, contact your Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician to arrange getting a new filter. Do not operate your dryer with a damaged lint filter or without the filter in place, as this will cause damage to your dryer.
Spontaneous combustion
To reduce the risk of fire in a tumble dryer the following should be observed:
z
Items that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable oil or cooking oil are a fire hazard and should not be placed in a tumble dryer.
z
Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat sources such as a tumble dryer. The items become warm causing an oxidation reaction in the oil. This oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot escape the items can become hot enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing oil-affected items can prevent heat from escaping creating a fire hazard.
z
If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable oil, cooking oil or have been contaminated by hair care products be placed in a tumble dryer, they should first be washed in hot water with extra detergent — this will reduce, but not eliminate the fire hazard. The cool down cycle of the dryer should be used to reduce the temperature ofthese items. They should not be removed from the tumble dryer and piled or stacked while hot.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS
z
Items that have previously been cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted with flammable liquids or solids, eg petrol/gasoline, kerosene, dry cleaning solvents, vegetable or cooking oil, acetone, denatured alcohol, some brands of spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers or other flammable or explosive substances should not be placed in a tumble dryer.
z
Do not dry unwashed items in the tumble dryer.
z
The dryer is not to be used if industrial chemicals have been used for cleaning.
z
Fabric Softeners or similar products should not be used in a tumble dryer to eliminate the effects of static electricity, unless this practice is specifically recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener product.
z
Rubber backed articles, foam rubber (latex foam), clothes or pillows fitted with foam rubber pads, fibreglass, shoes containing rubber, shower caps, babies waterproof napkin covers and waterproof textiles should not be dried in the dryer. These materials can when heated produce fire by spontaneous combustion.
z
When using STREAM REFRESH on unwashed clothing ensure there are no flammable substances on them.
Disposal
z
Extreme care must be taken when disposing of your old appliance to avoid hazards.
z
When disposing of the dryer, it is recommended that the door is removed to avoid children getting trapped inside, and that the electrical cable is cut off close to the dryer.

CONTROL PANEL
Timed cycles
When a timed cycle is selected the machine dries for the selected time regardless ofthelevel of moisture in the load. It is important to check the items throughout thetimed programmes to avoidover drying. Timed cycles include
Timed programmes of 10 to 150 minutes can be selected using the
LESS buttons.
Airing/Cool down
When the dryer has sensed that the load is dry it will automatically go into an airing or cool down cycle. DuringCOOL the drum tumbles and cool air is blown throughthe clothes. This cools the load to reduce creasing ifthe clothes are left in the dryer.
Time to go
Your dryer displays approximately how many minutes the cycle you are running has remaining if you have chosen one of the TIME DRY cycles. Ifyou have chosen an automatic cycle (ie not TIME DRY) the word will appear on the screen until it reaches the cool down phase, atwhich time the dryer will display how long the cycle has left to go.
A number of factors can influence the overall cycle time, eg the fabric type of garments, load size, the wetness of the load, environmental conditions etc.

DRY PREPARATION

Sorting
Sort your garments before placing them into the dryer. Sortintoloads of similar items, and loads that will likely take similar times to dry. Heavier items (egtowels, and flannelette sheets) are best dried separately from lightweight items (egsynthetics, polyester-cotton sheets and shirts). This prevents thepossibility of some items becoming over-dried whilst others are still damp. Itwillalso help to extend the lifeofyour clothing and linen.
Care labels on garments provide valuable information about the fabric type and howthegarment should be dried. Always follow the advice on the garment labels. Onlydryitems in this dryer that have a care label stating tumble drying is suitable.
Drying your clothes as soon as you remove them from the washer will decrease thechance of wrinkles forming, and dye transfer from coloured items to white items fromoccurring.
Separate coloured items from white/light items where possible, especially when new. Colour run may be an issue, especially if you intend to delay the start of the drying cycle.
