Dryer Safety

CAUTION – RISK OF FIRE/FLAMMABLE MATERIALS

This is an additional safety alert symbol that alerts you to the risk of re.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded,

1. DO NOT USE OR STORE PETROL OR OTHER FLAMMABLE MATERIALS IN THIS APPLIANCE OR NEAR THIS APPLIANCE.

2. DO NOT SPRAY AEROSOLS IN THE VICINITY OF THIS APPLIANCE WHILE IT IS IN OPERATION.

3. DO NOT MODIFY THIS APPLIANCE.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING:

including the following:

n Read all instructions before using the dryer. n Keep a minimum clearance of 100 mm (4 in.) between

the rear of the dryer and any wall.

n The operation of this appliance may affect the operation

of other types of appliances which take their air supply for safe combustion from the same room. There has to be adequate ventilation to replace exhausted air and thus avoid the back-ow of gases into the room from appliances burning other fuels, including open res, when operating the tumble dryer. If in doubt, consult the appliance manufacturers.

n Do not obstruct the air supply to the dryer (see

Installation Instructions for minimum clearances).

n Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer.

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 creates heat. If the heat cannot escape, the items can become hot enough to catch re. Piling, stacking, or storing oil-affected items can prevent heat from escaping and so create a re hazard.

n If it is unavoidable to dry in the dryer items that have

been soiled with substances such as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers, or that have been contaminated by hair care products, should be washed in hot water with an extra amount of detergent before being dried in the dryer. These items may give off vapours that could ignite or explode. Such washing will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard.

n This appliance is not intended for use by persons

(including children under 8 years of age) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instructions concerning use of the appliance by persons responsible for their safety.

n Cleaning and user maintenance by children must be

supervised.

n Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not

play with the appliance.

n Children less than 3 years of age should be kept away

from the appliance unless continuously supervised.

n The dryer should not be used if industrial chemicals have

been used for cleaning.

To reduce the risk of re, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the dryer, follow basic precautions,



Remove all objects from pockets, such as lighters and matches, before placing items in the dryer.

n Before the dryer is removed from service or discarded,

remove the doors to the drying compartment.

n Do not reach into the dryer if the drum is moving.

A door switch is tted for your safety.

n Do not install or store the dryer where it will be exposed

to the weather.

n Do not tamper with controls. n Do not continue to use this appliance if it appears to be

faulty.

n Do not repair or replace any part of the dryer or attempt

any maintenance unless specically recommended in this Use and Care Guide. Repairs and servicing should only be carried out by competent service personnel.

n Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static

unless recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product. Follow their instructions.

n Clean dryer lint screen before or after each load.

Do not operate dryer without lint screen in place.

n Keep area around the exhaust and inlet openings and

adjacent surrounding areas free from the accumulation of lint, dust, and dirt.

n The interior of the dryer and exhaust vent should be

cleaned periodically by qualied service personnel.

n See Installation Instructions for earthing instructions. n Do not dry unwashed items in this dryer. n The nal part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat

(cool down cycle) to ensure that the items are left at a temperature that ensures the items will not be damaged.

n Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps,

waterproof textiles, rubber backed articles and clothes or pillows tted with foam rubber pads must only be dried on a clothesline.

n If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the

manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualied person in order to avoid a hazard.

WARNING: Never stop a tumble dryer cycle before the

end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.

Specications

These units are sold in multiple regions with different requirements for measuring capacity. Below are a few of the valid forms of measure posted on this product:

Dry Linen Capacity: A weight measure that reects a maximum load size that can be loaded into the dryer.

IEC Capacity: The capacity measure that represents the maximum capacity of dry linens and textiles which the manufacturer declares can be treated in a specic cycle.

SANS61121:2015 Energy information

This dryer has an Annual Energy Consumption of 472 kWh. Consumption per year is based on 160 drying cycles of the

Timed Dry cycle at full and partial loads, and the consumption of the low-power modes. Actual energy consumption per cycle will depend on how the appliance is used in Settings for Energy tests.

Full load: 6.0 kg – 80 minutes maximum Time setting with High (heavy) Temperature/Fabric setting

Partial load: 3.0 kg – 60 minutes Time setting with High (heavy) Temperature/Fabric setting

Energy consumption per cycle is 2.95 kWh.

Check Your Vent System for Good Air Flow

To maintain good air ow:

n

Clean your lint screen before each load.

n

Replace plastic or foil vent material with 102 mm (4") diameter heavy, rigid vent material.

n

Use the shortest length of vent possible.

n

Use no more than four 90° elbows in a vent system; each bend and curve reduces air ow.

Good Better

Good air ow

Along with heat, dryers require good air ow to efciently dry laundry. Proper venting will reduce your drying times and improve your energy savings. See Installation Instructions.

The venting system attached to the dryer plays a big role in good air ow.

Service calls caused by improper venting are not covered by the warranty and will be paid by the customer, regardless of who installed the dryer.

n

Remove lint and debris from the exhaust hood.

n

Remove lint from the entire length of the vent system at least every 2 years. When cleaning is complete, be sure to follow the Installation Instructions supplied with your dryer for nal product check.

n

Clear away items from the front of the dryer.

102 mm

Use Automatic Dry Cycles for Better Fabric Care and Energy Savings

Use the Automatic Dry cycles to provide the most energy savings and enhanced fabric care from the dryer. During Automatic Dry cycles, drying air temperature or moisture level are sensed in the load. This sensing occurs throughout the drying cycle and the dryer shuts off when the load reaches the selected dryness. The Energy Preferred cycle will provide optimal energy savings.

With Timed Dry, the dryer runs the amount of time set and sometimes results in shrinkage, wrinkling, and static due to over-drying. Use Timed Dry for the occasional damp load that needs a little more drying time or when using the drying rack.
