• If you have washed your laundry with stain remover you must execute an extra rinse cycle before loading your tumble dryer.

• As some bulky items such as duvets and eiderdowns should be dried in large commercial machines because of their bulk, check with the manufacturer of the item if it is suitable for drying in a domestic machine, even if the dry weight of the item is within the limit advised.

• Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and saves energy.

• Clean the filters regularly to avoid excessive drying times and high electricity consumption.

• The room should be well ventilated for the tumble Dryer to operate efficiently. The room temperature should not exceed +35°C during drying.

Installation

It is dangerous to alter the specifications or attempt to modify this product in any way.

Care must be taken to ensure that the appliance does not stand on the electrical supply cable.

Any electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.

To keep vibration and noise to a minimum when the dryer is in use, it should be placed on a firm, level surface. Once in its permanent operating position, check that the dryer is absolutely level with the aid of a spirit level. If it is not, raise or lower the feet until it is.

The feet must never be removed.

Do not restrict the floor clearance through deeppile carpets, strips of wood or similar. This might cause heat build-up which would interfere with the operation of the appliance.

Important

The hot air emitted by the tumble dryer can reach temperatures of up to 60°C. The appliance must be sited in a well ventilated room but not be installed on floors which are not resistant to high temperatures.

When operating the tumble dryer, the room temperature must not be lower than +5°C and higher than +35°C, as it may affect the performance of the appliance

Stacking kit (optional accessory)

It should be possible to stack your new dryer on top of a

front loading washing machine with cover’s depth between 48 and 60 cm.

Read carefully the instructions supplied with the stacking kit.

Please contact your local John Lewis branch for further advice.

Door reversal

To make it easier to load or unload the laundry the door can be reversed.

This operation must be carried out by qualified personnel.

Unpacking

Warning !

Slide out the polythene bag containing the polystyrene block before using the appliance. Pull off adhesive strips from inside machine on top of drum. Keep all packaging away from children.

Should the appliance be moved, it must be transported vertically.

Remove the rack

The drying rack offers the possibility of drying washable woollen fabrics and sports shoes. The drying rack does not turn with the clothes-dryer drum. This allows the drying of woollen garments or sports shoes. When wet, the wool must be moved as little as possible because it tends to become matted. Sports shoes could damage the drum due to their weight.

1. Lift the rack out of the polystyrene protection used for transport and remove it from the clothes-dryer drum.

2. Remove the pieces of polystyrene from the drum one at a time.

3. Remove the elastic band from the rack and the rack container.

Positioning

It is recommended that, for your convenience, the machine is positioned close to your washing machine. The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place, where dirt does not build up.

Air must be able to circulate freely all around the appliance. It is important to ensure the air intake grills on the back of the dryer are not obstructed with any materials (e.g. paper, rags etc.). Obstructing the grills could be dangerous or at least seriously impair the efficiency of the tumble dryer.
