features
1. Super capacity
Now you can dry extra-large loads. Our 9kg, 8kg, and 7kg capacity dryers have large drums,
circulating large volumes of air through your clothes, and drying them faster. Reverse tumble
and anti-wrinkle features give a better wrinkle-free result and makes ironing easier.
2. Visible water tank indicator
A fi rst for condenser dryer design, you can now see the level of the condensed water inside
of the tank through the transparent section of the panel. No more coming home only to fi nd
incomplete drying. If the tank is close to needing emptied, you can see it and fi x it.
3. Sensor drying (fully automatic drying)
By adopting humidity and temperature sensors, the operating time and energy usage is
controlled using digital technology. Consistent levels of drying, much safer care for your
fabrics, and more fl exibility for easy ironing settings or getting ready for short term or long
term cupboard storage.
4. Interior lamp (DV9, DV8 Series)
No more sock hunting in the dark; the interior lamp allows easy viewing of the drum, aiding a
lot in making sure you picked up every item every time.
5. Rack drying (DV9 Series Only)
This is a low-temperature drying function developed to allow new fl exibility in what you can
dry in this appliance. Delicates can be protected better using the platform to avoid tumbling
action, great for tights, or vulnerable fabrics not usually suitable for a dryer. Even sport shoes,
which are not appropriate for tumbling, can be dried safely in this way.
6. Reversible door for easier door opening at any location
Our dryers will fi t into more spaces without a door confl ict, because the opening direction
of our easy reversible door can be changed with ease. This is great for location options,
but also helps in case you stack the dryer over the washing machine. You can change the
direction left/right opening to whatever suits your home.
7. Diamond drum for fabric care
The Diamond-shaped drum reduces abrasion and o ers excellent protection to your laundry.
8. High energy e ciency
Heat Pump dryers o er a great way to save energy and still receive the services of a high
performance drying appliance. This machine has been designed and optimised to make the
most e cient use of power we can o er, and this appliance is much more e cient than the
original Condenser Dryer technology.
