ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Electrical Requirements is AC 220~240V/50Hz.

• Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. WARNING Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether your dryer is

properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with your dryer – if it doesn’t fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

•To prevent unnecessary risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal injury, all wiring and grounding must be done in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, It is your responsibility to provide adequate electrical services for your dryer.

GROUNDING

Your dryer must be grounded. If your dryer malfunctions or breaks down, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for the electric current.

Your dryer comes with a power cord having a three-prong grounding plug for use in a properly installed and grounded outlet.

Never connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot water pipes.

Improperly connecting the equipment-grounding conductor can result electrical shock.

Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are unsure if the dryer is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the dryer. If it does not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

If the product is not grounded, there is a danger of fire or electric shock.

operating Instructions, tips

LOAD THE DRYER PROPERLY

•Place only one washload in your dryer at a time.

•Mixed loads of heavy and lightweight fabrics will dry differently, which may result in lightweight fabrics being dry while heavy fabrics remain damp at the end of a drying cycle.

•Add one or more similar items to your dryer when only one or two articles of clothing need drying. This improves the tumbling action and drying efficiency.

•Overloading restricts tumbling action, resulting in uneven drying as well as excessive wrinkling of some fabrics.

•Make sure to insert laundry that has been spun by an appropriate washing machine.

•No unwashed textiles should be dried

•Textiles which have been in contact with oil, alcohol, petrol etc. should not be dried.

GETTING STARTED

1.Load your dryer loosely – DO NOT overload.

2.Close the door.

3.Select the appropriate cycle and options for the load (see pages 20, 21).

4.Press the Start/Pause button.

5.The dryer indicator light will illuminate.

6.The estimated cycle time will appear in the display.

The time may fluctuate to better indicate drying time remaining in the cycle.

• When the cycle is complete and “End” will appear in the display.

•Pressing Power cancels the cycle and stops your dryer.

•The Drying, Cooling, and Wrinkle Prevent indicator lights will illuminate during those portions of the cycle.

care and cleaning

CLEAN THE FILTER CASE

•After each load.

•To shorten drying time.

•To operate more energy efficiently.

Do not operate your dryer without the filter case in place.

There is a danger of damaging the laundry when drying laundry without the filter case.

CAUTION

CLEAN THE CONDENSER

•Clean once a month

•Clean with water

If you do not clean it for a long time, the drying performance may be degraded.

CAUTION

CONTROL PANEL

Clean with a soft, damp clothes. Do not use abrasive substances. Do not spray cleaners directly on the panel.

The control panel finish may be damaged by some laundry pre-treatment soil and stain remover products. Apply such products away from your dryer and wipe up any spills or overspray immediately.

TUMBLER

Remove any stains such as crayon, ink, or fabric dye (from new items such as towels or jeans) with an allpurpose cleaner.

Tumble old towels or rags to remove any excess stain or cleaning substance.

Once these steps are followed, stains may still be visible, but should not transfer to subsequent loads.

STAINLESS STEEL TUMBLER

To clean the stainless steel tumbler, use a damp cloth with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner suitable for stainless steel surfaces.

Remove the cleaner residue and dry with a clean cloth.

DRYER EXTERIOR

The entire dryer has a high-gloss finish. Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive substances. Protect the surface from sharp objects as they may scratch or damage the finish.

Do not place any heavy or sharp objects or a detergent box on the dryer. Keep them on the purchased pedestal or in a separate storage box.

troubleshooting

CHECK THESE POINTS IF YOUR DRYER…

PROBLEM	SOLUTION
Doesn’t run.	• Make sure the door is latched shut.
	• Be sure the power cord is plugged into a live electrical outlet.
	• Check the home’s circuit breaker and fuses.
	• Press the Start/Pause button again if the door is opened during the
	cycle.
	• Empty the water in the condensed water tank.
	• Clean the filter case.
Doesn’t heat.	• Check the home’s circuit breaker and fuses.
	• Select a heat setting other than Cool Air.
	• Check the case filter and condenser and clean them if necessary.
	• Dryer may have moved into the cool-down phase of the cycle.
Doesn’t dry.	• Check all of the above, plus...
	• Do not overload. 1 wash load = 1 dryer load.
	• Sort heavy items from lightweight items.
	• Large, bulky items like blankets or comforters may require
	repositioning to ensure even drying.
	• Check that the dryer is draining properly to extract adequate water
	from the load.
	• Load may be too small to tumble properly. Add a few towels.
	• Clean the filter case.
	• Clean the Condenser.
	• Check if the cooling air vent is blocked.
Is noisy.	• Check the load for objects such as coins, loose buttons, nails, etc.
	Remove promptly.
	• Be sure the dryer is leveled properly as outlined in the installation
	instruction.
	• It is normal for the dryer to hum due to the high velocity of air moving
	through the dryer drum and fan.
Dries unevenly.	• Seams, pockets, and other similarly heavy areas may not be
	completely dry when the rest of the load has reached the selected
	dryness level. This is normal. Select the Extra Dry setting if desired.
	• If one heavy item is dried with a lightweight load, such as one towel
	with sheets, it is possible that the heavy item will not be completely
	dry when the rest of the load has reached the selected dryness level.
	Sort heavy items from lightweight items for best drying results.
Has an odour.	• Household odors from painting, varnishing, strong cleaners, etc.
	may enter the dryer with the surrounding room air. This is normal as
	the dryer draws the air from the room, heats it, pulls it through the
	tumbler, and exhausts it outside.
	• When these odors linger in the air, ventilate the room completely
	before using the dryer.

Shuts off before load is dry • Dryer load is too small. Add more items or a few towels and restart the cycle.

•Dryer load is too large. Remove some items and restart the dryer.

PROBLEM	SOLUTION
Lint on clothes	• Make sure the lint filter is cleaned before every load. With some loads
	that produce high amounts of lint, it may be necessary to clean the
	filter case during the cycle.
	• Some fabrics are lint producers (for example, a fuzzy white cotton
	towel) and they should be dried separately from clothes that are lint
	trappers (for example, a pair of black linen pants)
	• Divide larger loads into smaller loads for drying
	• Check pockets thoroughly before drying and drying clothes.
Garments still wrinkled after	• Small loads of 1 to 4 items work best.
Wrinkle prevent	• Load fewer garments.Load similar-type garments.
Odours remain in clothing	• Fabrics containing strong odors should be washed.
