1 Installation
1.1 Make sure that the air inlets at the back are not blocked and do not allow fluff to
accumulate around your dryer.
1.2 If you wish to change the side on which your door opens see section 8 “To change
door opening”.
1.3 If your dryer is to be used with the control panel at the bottom see section 9 “To
change control panel”.
1.4 An optional wall-mounting kit is available from your dealer. If your dryer is to be
wall-mounted see section 10 “To wall mount”.
1.5 Remove any dust by wiping the drum and door with a damp cloth. Any initial smell
from the heater should disappear after the first period of heating.
1.6 WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
The dryer must be connected to its own socket. Do not use a “double” adaptor or
“power board”.
1.7 Ensure that the tumble dryer is installed in such a way that the full opening of the
dryer door is obtained.
2 Control Panel
A. The programme timer. Calibrated up to 120 minutes including 12 minutes cool

past 0 when turning the knob in a clockwise direction).

of cycle if Anti-crease has been selected.

Sort out the clothes into groups of similar fabrics and colours. Check the care label
inside the garment.

It is better to dry small and large articles together.
3.2 Open the door.

Set the timer to the correct position (see programme chart on control panel). The
drum will now begin to rotate and stop when the timer automatically reaches the
‘O’ position.
3.5 When drying large items such as sheets, we suggest you stop the dryer to
redistribute the load.
To stop the machine during the middle of the programme simply open the door;
the drum will stop rotating automatically and restart when you close the door. To
lengthen or shorten the programme, reset the timer knob.

5 Don’ts
Do not – Overload the dryer.
Do not – Dry articles individually as they tend to roll up and so increase drying time.
Do not – Dry woollen or wool mixture articles unless the article is labelled as
suitable.
Do not – Allow filter to become blocked.
Do not – Allow fluff to accumulate around the tumble dryer.
Do not – Drag your dryer over the floor as the rubber feet may come off. Please lift
the dryer when moving it.
6 Any problems?
If the clothes are not dry after normal drying time:
— Check that the filter is clean.
— Check that you used the correct heater setting.
— Check that you have not set the timer within a cool down period.
If your machine does not work check the following
before calling a service engineer:
— Check that there is a supply of electricity.
— Check that the machine is switched on and the door
properly closed.
— Your machine is fitted with a resettable cut out.
Check whether this has operated. There is a red
button on the back of your dryer. Press it lightly. If it
has operated then a sharp “click” 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 re-starting.
