For your safety
ALWAYS When the dryer is not in use, switch off at the wall, remove plug
and close the door.
ALWAYS Comply with the specified electrical requirements.
ALWAYS Ensure that your dryer is installed correctly and has adequate
ventilation. (see, "Where to put and vent your dryer.")
ALWAYS Use the vent hose for optimum drying performance.
ALWAYS Finish every programme with the cool tumble cycle provided on
the control.
ALWAYS Clean the filter, it is essential that the filter is kept clear of fluff
after EACH drying cycle.
ALWAYS Observe the rules for drying garments:
In particular woollen articles should not be dried in a
tumble dryer unless they are labelled ‘Superwash’,
‘Machine washable’ or have the ‘May be tumble dried’
symbol:
If in any doubt do not dry wool in the machine.
Unlike other materials, the mechanism of wool
shrinkage is irreversible, i.e. it will not stretch back to
the original size and shape.
ALWAYS Buy genuine accessories and spares.
CAUTION:WHEN THE DRYER IS IN USE AVOID
TOUCHING THE REAR OF THE DRYER AS IT MAY BE
HOT.

WARNING: This appliance must be earthed!
REFER TO THE RATING PLATE FOR VOLTAGE AND CURRENT
REQUIREMENTS. (see diagram for location.)
The flexible mains lead is supplied fitted with a BS1363 plug and
with a 13 amp BS1362 fuse.
The plug should be connected to the mains supply via a suitable
switched socket which is accessible after installing your dryer.
If it is necessary to fit a replacement fuse, it must be a 13 amp
ASTA approved to BS1362 type.
If a replacement fuse holder/cover is required, it must be of the
same colour coding or wording as shown on the base of the plug.
Replacements are available from your Spares stockist.
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the
following:
GREEN/YELLOW - EARTH
BLUE - NEUTRAL
BROWN - LIVE
If a replacement plug is to be fitted, the appropriate wire must be
connected to the correct terminal,as follows:
Connect:
Green/Yellow to terminal marked Earth or Green or
Blue to terminal marked Neutral or N or Black
Brown to terminal marked Live or L or Red.
If the plug being replaced is a non-rewirable type then the cut-off
plug must be disposed of safely. DO NOT leave where it can be
inserted into a socket and create a shock hazard.
Should the mains lead ever require replacing at any time please
contact your nearest Service Centre. A charge will be made for the
replacement of the mains lead or if you require a longer lead.
The mains lead must only be replaced by a specially prepared
cable obtainable from your Spares Stockist and fitted by a
qualified electrician.

Where to put and vent your dryer
Your tumble dryer should NOT be located adjacent to a gas hob,
cooker, heater, or eye level grill as flames from the burners could
cause damage to your machine.
The dryer should be placed where air can freely circulate around
it, preferably near a window that can be opened to reduce the pos-
sibility of condensation occuring while the dryer is in use.
When operating the dryer, there has to be adequate ventilation to
avoid the back flow of gases into the room from appliances
burning other fuels, including open fires.
A vent hose is recommended for optimum performance.
DO NOT operate the dryer in an enclosed environment,
ensure the dryer is adequately ventilated.
If the dryer is enclosed or fitted under a work surface, a gap
of at least 50mm (2") must be allowed above the top across
the full width of the dryer and at least 25mm (1") either side.
This allows air to enter into the rear air inlet. The dryer must
NEVER be run in a cupboard with a closed door.
We do not recommend that the dryer is installed in a cupboard
but the dryer must never be installed behind a lockable door,
a sliding door or a door with a hinge on the opposite side to
that of the dryer door.
DO NOT allow clothes, towels etc., to hang down the front of
the dryer into the airstream. This obstructs the airflow and
may damage the dryer.
Ensure that the end of the hose is not directed towards the
air intake grille at the rear of the dryer.
NOTE:The vent hose should not exceed 2.4 metres in length,
and should be kept free of any possible accumulation of fluff
lint (and water) by frequently shaking it out. Always ensure
that the hose is not squashed.

Wall Hanging Kit This allows the dryer to be mounted on a wall of suitable strength to

mounted on top of a work surface to secure the dryer to the wall.
WARNING:
DO NOT DISCHARGE THE EXHAUST AIR INTO A FLUE WHICH
IS USED FOR EXHAUSTING FUMES FROM OTHER
APPLIANCES BURNING GAS OR OTHER FUELS.

Check that the fluff
filter is clean (see
section How to
remove and clean
the fluff filter).
4. Load the dryer
placing the
clothes carefully in
the drum, pushing
them well towards
the back and
away from the
door seal. Close
the door.
5. Select the
relevant heat setting
(see section “Sorting
your Laundry”).
Push IN for high heat, for cottons, linens
and synthetics.
Low setting - button OUT for acrylics and
acrylic mixtures.
6. Turn the Timer

Sorting your laundry
1. Always separate laundry into the correct fabric groups before
washing and drying.
2. See that all zips are closed, hooks and eyes are fastened and
belt, strings etc. are tied loosely in bows, you will normally have
done this for each item before the washing stage.
3. It is important to extract as much water as possible from each
item before drying.This saves you time and money.
4. Make sure that the items to be dried are suitable for tumble
drying, or are not of a type requiring ‘special attention’ (see“Wash
Care Labels” section).
Your dryer will hold a load of 3kg (6.6lb) dry weight of natural fabrics.
if you are drying items of man-made fibres (synthetic or acrylics), the
maximum load should not exceed 2kg (4.4lb) dry weight.
This difference is that man-made fibres require more space to
tumble-dry without creasing.
To help you estimate how many items it takes to make up a drying
load, the charts below show the approximate weights of some
everyday washing items.
If you group small cotton or terry-towelling items with a synthetic
fabric load they could be damp at the end of the drying cycle. If this
happens simply give them an additional short period of drying to
finish them off.

Wash Care Labels
Most of today’s fabrics can be tumble dried in your Dryer with no
trouble at all, but there are certain fabric finishes which should be
dried away from direct heat.
The majority of garments now have wash-care labels on them, giving
full washing and drying instructions. These should always be followed
carefully especially when you are drying something for the first time.
Typical symbols are:
May be tumble dried
Do not tumble dry
Or:
Tumble dry at high heat setting
Tumble dry at low heat setting
Those containing foam rubber or rubber-like materials or plastic
film (e.g. pillows, cushions, PVC rainwear), or any other articles
which are inflammable or contain inflammable substances (e.g.
towels contaminated with hair lacquer
Fibreglass (e.g. some types of curtains)
Items which have been dry cleaned
Woollens. Woollen items need as much care in drying as they do
in washing. The movement of the tumble-drying action causes the
woollen fibre to shrink and distort.
Garments with the ITCL Code (see ‘Items Requiring Special
Attention’).
Do not tumble dry.
Large bulky items e.g. continental quilts, sleeping bags, pillows,
cushions, double blankets and large bedspreads. These expand
when drying and would prevent airflow through the Dryer.
WARNING: THE DRYER IS INTENDED FOR USE ONLY
WHERE WATER SOLUTION IS USED FOR THE CLEANING
PROCESS. MISUSE OF A TUMBLE DRYER MAY CREATE A
FIRE HAZARD.
