TUMBLE DRYER

IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THESE

INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY BEFORE USING
THIS APPLIANCE. KEEP THEM IN A SAFE PLACE FOR
FUTURE REFERENCE.

IMPORTANT USER INFORMATION
These notes are provided in the interest of safety.
You must read them before installing or using the
appliance.

- This tumble dryer is intended for NORMAL DOMESTIC
USE ONLY.

- This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years
and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if
they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use
of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards
involved. Children shall not play with the appliance.
Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children
without supervision. Children of less than 3 years should be
kept away unless continuously supervised.

- Adequate ventilation must be provided to avoid back flow of
gases into the room from appliances burning other fuels,
including open fires.

- Exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used
for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other
fuel.

- Please note it is not recommended that the dryer is placed
directly next to ovens or cookers as the performance of the
dryer may be affected.

- A carpet must not obstruct the ventilation openings in the
base of the dryer.

- Do not stack the tumble dryer on top of other appliances
without the correct stacking kit.

- Any electrical work required to install the appliance should
be carried out by a qualified person.

- It is important to clean the lint filter after each drying cycle
or the restrictions to airflow will extend drying times and
could cause the safety cut-out to trip.

- Under no circumstances should anything other than the
recommended articles be placed in the tumble dryer.

- The tumble dryer should be serviced by an appointed service
organisation and only genuine parts used.

- It is dangerous to alter or modify the product in any way
other than fitting authorized accessories.

- We recommend that the appliance is unplugged each time
after use. It should always be disconnected from the electricity
supply for long periods (i.e. weekends, if it is to be left
unattended for holidays etc.)

- The rear of the dryer gets quite hot during use. Position the
dryer so that the back is not accessible while in operation, but
ensure that the sides have a space available to allow airflow.

- The special mains cable and plug assembly must only be
replaced with a genuine part by the manufacturer or his service
agents in order to avoid a hazard.

- It is important to clean fluff from the window of the dryer and
around the door seal after each drying cycle. Failure to do so
could result in water leaking.
WARNING: Never stop a tumble dryer before the end of a
drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread
out so that heat is dissipated.
Remove all objects from pockets such as lighters and matches.
DO NOT use a two-way adaptor, or extension lead. The dryer
must be connected to its own socket.
DO NOT block the air inlets at the base and side of your
dryer.
DO NOT allow fluff to accumulate around the tumble dryer.
Risk of fire

DO NOT exceed the recommended maximum load.
DO NOT dry unwashed items in the tumble dryer
DO NOT place articles in the dryer if anything other than a

water solution has been used in the cleaning process.

DO NOT attempt to dry dripping wet articles.
DO NOT use the tumble dryer if you suspect that it is

damaged in any way. Under no circumstances should you
attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by
inexperienced persons may cause serious
injury. Consult your local appointed service engineer and
insist on genuine spare parts.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Many outlets sell “universal” tumble dryer accessories. These may not fit satisfactorily and could impair the
efficient operation of your tumble dryer and may even cause air-flow restrictions not covered by our guarantee.
Crosslee always obtains test house approval for dryer accessories so use this order form to obtain genuine authentic
accessories.

INSTALLATION

Position the tumble dryer so that the plug remains accessible after installation. Do not block the vent at the side or
base of the dryer, as this will impair the working of the machine. This appliance must not be installed behind a
lockable door, a sliding door or a door with hinges on the opposite side to that of the tumble dryer.

TUMBLE DRYER VENTING

Your tumble dryer may be supplied with a vent hose (If not, one is available as an accessory).
A vent hose allows you to direct the warm, damp air expelled from the rear of the dryer to an open door or
window.
The best solution is to make a permanent connection through either a wall or a window. This is particularly
recommended for small, cool rooms and a kit for this purpose is available as an accessory.

When using a vent hose, remember the following points:
The vent hose must be at least 10cm (4 ins) in diameter.
No more than three right-angled bends should be allowed when positioning the vent hose.
Do not distort or constrict the vent hose as this will reduce the airflow.
When drying, the vent hose must always be extended to an open door or window.

The vent hose must not be shared with other appliances, for example, a cooker hood outlet.
Note: Do not obstruct or add a mesh to the vent hose outlet during use and ensure that it cannot be blocked
or bent sharply which may obstruct the airflow.
It is recommended that the interior of the hose be periodically inspected and cleaned if necessary.

FINAL INSTALLATION

Push the filter into its operating position as shown in the
diagram. Remove any dust by wiping the drum and door with
a damp cloth. Any initial smell of burning will be caused by
dust on the heater and will quickly disappear.
