Safety instructions Hints and tips Environmental information

Your New Tumble Dryer

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.

Energy saving tips

To save energy we recommend that you follow these hints:

■

Try to load the maximum capacity of the machine as small loads are uneconomical.

■

Always load well spun laundry. The higher the spin speed, the lower the electricity consumption and the shorter the drying times.

■

Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and saves energy.

■

Clean the filter regularly to avoid excessive drying times and high electricity consumption.

■

Ventilate the room well. The room temperature should not exceed +35°C during drying.

In the interest of the environment

■

Materials marked with the symbol are recyclable.

■

Check with your local Council or Environmental Health Office to see if there are facilities in your area for re-cycling this appliance.

■

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.

■

Help to keep your country tidy - use authorised disposal sites for your old appliance.

The Control Panel

1 Programme Chart

This will help you to select the correct time for drying.

2 Low Temperature Button

Press this button to reduce the temperature when drying particularly delicate cotton or linen items. In this case you should select a longer drying time. On the programmes for synthetics the temperature is automatically reduced. Therefore it is not necessary to depress this button.

3 Cool Tumble Button

By depressing this button the heat is cut off. This is particularly useful to freshen the laundry (e.g. to remove a persistent odour of moth-balls). Select 2030 mins max.

4 Mains-On Light

This lights up when the machine starts operating and goes out at the end of the programme.

5 Drying Time Selector Dial

The selector dial incorporates two drying cycles, one of up to 120 minutes at a high temperature for cotton and linen, and one of up to 80 minutes at a low temperature for synthetic fabrics.

To set the machine to the selected time, turn the dial clockwise until the time you want coincides exactly with the pointer.

NEVER attempt to turn the dial in an anticlockwise direction.

When selecting the drying time, you should remember that it includes a 10 minute cooling phase (position on the dial). This phase should not be shortened, stopped or avoided, as this could cause skin burns or damages to the laundry.
