SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE

The following safety guidelines are intended to prevent unforeseen risks or damage from unsafe or incorrect operation of the appliance. The guidelines are separated into ‘WARNING’ and ‘CAUTION’ as described below.

Safety Messages

This symbol is displayed to indicate matters and operations that can cause risks. Read the part with this symbol carefully and follow the instructions in order to avoid risks.

WARNING

This indicates that the failure to follow the instructions can cause serious injury or death.

CAUTION

This indicates that the failure to follow the instructions can cause the minor injury or damage to the appliance.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of explosion, fire, death, electric shock, injury or scalding to persons when using this product, follow basic precautions, including the following

Technical Safety

• 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.

Page 4

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

• Do not dry unwashed items in the appliance.

• Fabric softeners, or similar products, should be used as specified by the fabric softener instructions.

• Remove all objects from pockets such as lighters and matches.

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

• The appliance is not to be used if industrial chemicals have been used for cleaning.

• Items that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil, vegetable oil, acetone, alcohol, petroleum, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers should be washed in hot water with an extra amount of detergent before being dried in the appliance.

• Do not drink the condensed water. Failure to do so may result in foodborne illnesses.

• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agents or similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

• The lint filter must be cleaned frequently.

• Lint must not to be allowed to accumulate around the appliance.

• Do not spray dry cleaning detergent directly onto the appliance or use the appliance to dry clothes left with dry cleaning detergent.

• Do not dry clothes stained with oil substances. Oil substances (including edible oils) stained on clothes cannot be completely removed even after washing with water.

• 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.

• Remove clothes from the product immediately when drying is complete or the power is turned off during the drying process. Leaving clothes that has been dried in the appliance unattended

Page 5

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

could result in fire. Clothes not removed from the appliance after drying could result in fire. Remove clothes immediately after drying, and then hang or lay the clothes flat to cool.

• Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat sources such as in a tumble dryer. The items become warm, causing an oxidation reaction in the oil. Oxidation create 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 and so 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 in hot water with extra detergent – this will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard.

Maximum Capacity

The maximum capacity in some cycles for clothes to be dried is:

Operation Overview

Using the Appliance

Before the first cycle, set the appliance to dry for 5 minutes to warm up the drum. Open the door between loads the first few times you use the appliance to allow any odours from the interior of the appliance to disperse.

Children must be supervised so that they do not climb inside the drum.

Ensure the lint filter and water collection tank are clean.

• Open the door and ensure the lint filter is clean. When the filter is full with lint, drying times will be longer than usual.

• Pull out the water collection tank and empty the condensed water. When the water collection tank is full, the appliance may stop during the cycle.

• All strings and attached belts of clothes should be well tied and fixed before being put into the drum.

Press the off.

Clean the lint filter and empty the water collection tank.

To help reduce odours from forming, the dryer’s door can be left open or slightly ajar for a short period of time if possible to help ventilate the drum after use.

• For safety reasons, do not allow children or animals to enter the appliance. It may cause damage or injury.

• The final part of a tumble dry cycle occurs without heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that the clothes are left at a temperature that ensures the clothes will not be damaged.

• A high atmospheric temperature and a small room may both increase drying time as well as energy consumption.

Preparing the Clothes

• Check that the clothes are not stuck between appliance and door, otherwise the clothes may get damaged while drying.

• Observe the maximum load capacity on the programme table for the relevant drying programme to get optimum drying results. Overloading gives a poor drying result and causes unnecessary creasing.

• Do not load soaking wet clothes into the appliance. It will cause an increasing of drying time and energy consumption. Make sure that the clothes are spun thoroughly before loading.

• A mixed fabric load can cause the drying time to be extended and the time remaining in the display to pause during active drying. The remaining time will then continue when it is the actual time that remains.

• Make sure to empty all pockets. Items such as nails, hair clips, matches, pens, coins and keys can damage both your appliance and clothes.

• Remove loose belts and close zippers, hooks and strings to make sure that these items do not snag other clothes.

Sorting the Clothes

Clothes have their own fabric care labels, so drying according to the fabric care label is recommended.

Sort the clothes into size and type of fabric and then prepare the clothes according to the symbols on the fabric care labels.
