This appliance is heavy. Care should be taken
when moving it.
n
It is dangerous to alter the specifications or
attempt to modify this product in any way.
n
Any electrical work required to install this
appliance should be carried out by a qualified
electrician or competent person.
n
Care must be taken to ensure that the appliance
does not stand on the electrical supply cable.
n
If the machine is situated on a carpeted floor,
please adjust the feet in order to allow air to
circulate freely.
n
If the tumble dryer is placed on top of a washing
machine, it is compulsory to use the stacking kit
(optional accessory).
Child Safety
n
This appliance is designed to be operated by
adults. Children should not be allowed to tamper
with the controls or play with the product.
n
Pets and children have been known to climb into
tumble dryers. Please check your drum before
use.
n
Keep all packaging well away for children.
Use
n
Do not overload the appliance (see programme
chart).
n
Clothes which are dripping wet should not be
placed in the dryer.
n
As some bulky items such as duvets and
eiderdowns should be dried in large commercial
machines because of their bulk, check with the
manufacturer of the item if it is suitable for drying
in a domestic machine, even if the dry weight of
the item is within the limit advised.
n
Do not dry canvas shoes or sports shoes, as they
could get stuck between the door and the drum,
thus blocking this latter.
n
Please make sure that no gas lighters have
accidentally been left in pockets of garments to be
loaded into appliance.
n
Danger of explosion: Never tumble dry items that
have been in contact with inflammable solvents
(petrol, methylated spirits, dry cleaning fluid and

could cause an explosion. Tumble dry only items
washed with water.
n
In order to avoid danger of fires caused by
excessive drying, do not use appliance to dry the
following items:
n
Cushions, quilts and the like (these items
accumulate heat).
n
Items containing rubber foam or materials similar
to rubber foam.
n
Leave the door slightly ajar when the appliance is

This tumble dryer will give your wash that soft, relaxed feel whatever
the weather.
Extremely high quality standards both during development and
manufacturing guarantee a long service life for your appliance.
Maximum economy in the operation of your dryer is achieved through
very frugal electricity consumption and short drying times.

In the interest
of the environment
n
Materials marked with the symbol are
recyclable.
n
Check with your local Council or Environmental
Health Office to see if there are facilities in your
area for re-cycling this appliance.
n
When the appliance is to be scrapped, cut off the
power supply cable and make the door closing
device unusable to prevent young children from
being trapped inside.
n
Help to keep your country tidy - use authorised
disposal sites for your old appliance.
How do we help to protect the
environment? We use recycled paper!
Energy saving tips
To save energy we recommend that you follow these
hints:
n
Try to load the maximum capacity of the machine
as small loads are uneconomical.
n
Always load well spun laundry. The higher the
spin speed, the lower the electricity consumption
and the shorter the drying times.
n
Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and
saves energy.
n
Clean the filter regularly to avoid excessive drying
times and high electricity consumption.
n
Ventilate the room well. The room temperature
should not exceed +35°C during drying.

Before placing articles of laundry in your tumble
dryer, check the care labels to ensure they are
recommended for tumble drying.
Care Labels you may find on your laundry
normal drying (high temperature)
delicate drying (low temperature)
do not tumble dry
Do not overload the appliance.
Here is a list of the approximate weight of some
common laundry items.
Sheet 700 to 1000 g
Pillowcase 100 to 200 g
Tablecloth 400 to 500 g
Table Napkin 50 to 100 g
Kitchen Towel 70 to 120 g
Linen Hand Towel 100 to 150 g

Bath Towel 700 to 1000 g
Bathrobe 1000 to 1500 g
Shirt 200 to 300 g
Apron 150 to 200 g
n
Always load well spun laundry. The higher the
spin speed the lower the electricity consumption
and the shorter the drying time.
n
DO NOT load dripping wet laundry into the dryer.
Roll the article in a towel or spin to remove
excess water.
n
Close poppers and zips and fasten any buttons.
n
Sort the laundry. Separate synthetics from
cotton/linens, and dry separately.
n
Remove the laundry immediately after the
programme has finished.
n
Use a fabric conditioning sheet to reduce static.
We recommend the sheet is pinned to an article of
laundry (using a safety pin).
n
Mix the load i.e. large and small articles.
n
When drying large items such as sheets, we
recommend you periodically stop the dryer to
redistribute the load.
DO NOT use the tumble dryer to dry the following:
n
Articles contaminated with inflammable
substances e.g. petrol, cleaning solvents, cooking
oil, fats or hair lacquer.
n
Woollen and synthetic/wool mixtures unless the
item is labelled as suitable for tumble drying.
n
Very delicate articles such as silk.
n
Very large and bulky items such as duvets or
sleeping bags.
Hints & Tips on Drying
i
10
You must disconnect the appliance from the
electricity supply, before you can carry out any
cleaning or maintenance work.
External cleaning
Use only soap and water and then dry thoroughly.
From time to time, apply a little wax furniture cream
with a soft cloth.
Important: do not use methylated spirit, diluents or
similar products.
Cleaning the filter
The tumble dryer cannot operate efficiently with a
clogged filter. The filter collects all the fluff which
forms during drying and it is therefore essential to
remove and clean this filter after each drying
programme.
You should not be alarmed by the amount of fluff
which collects on the filter; this is due to normal
wearing of the fabrics dried and not to incorrect
operation of your machine. Rubbing of the fibres
during normal wear and washing forms fluff. If
laundry is dried on a line, this fluff simply flies away,
whereas inside the tumble dryer it collects together
and swells considerably as a result of the drying
action.
P1026
Cleaning the condenser unit
Clean the air condenser periodically, 3 or 4 times a
year depending on how frequently the dryer is used.
Pull out the condenser, holding it at the top, and
remove all fluff. Clean it with a brush and rinse it
under the shower if necessary.
Also clean the outside, removing all fluff.
Clean the rubber seal round the porthole door and the
seal of the condenser in the inner door with a damp
cloth.
Emptying the water reservoir
Water extracted from the laundry condenses inside
the machine and is collected in a reservoir.
The reservoir must be emptied after each drying
cycle to ensure efficient operation when the machine
is next used.
If this is not done a safety device trips: pilot light
on the control panel comes on and the programme
stops, leaving the laundry damp.
The reservoir can be emptied even in the middle of a
programme. After inserting the reservoir depress
START button to re-start the programme.
The reservoir must be re-inserted correctly.
Handy tip: The condensed water may be used in a
steam iron or to top up a battery, etc. In this case it
must be filtered (e.g. through a coffee filter).

Positioning
It is recommended that, for your convenience, the
dryer is positioned close to your washing machine.
The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place,
where dirt does not build up.
Air must be able to circulate freely all round the
appliance. Do not obstruct the front ventilation grille
or the air intake grilles in the back of the machine.
To keep vibration and noise to a minimum when the
dryer is in use, it should be placed on a firm, level
surface.
Once in its permanent operating position, check that
the dryer is absolutely level with the aid of a spirit
level. If it is not, raise or lower the four adjustable
feet until it is.
The feet must never be removed.
Do not restrict the floor clearance through deep-
pile carpets, strips of wood or similar. This might
cause heat build-up which would interfere with the
operation of the appliance.
Important
When operating the tumble dryer, the room
temperature must not exceed 35°C, as it may affect
the performance of the appliance.
P0046
Stacking kit
A special stacking kit is available through your
dealer, to enable the mounting of the dryer on top of
your washing machine.
Door reversal
