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.

• This tumble dryer has been designed for

home, and not professional, use.

• Do not touch the appliance while barefoot

or with wet hands or feet.

• Unplug the machine by pulling on the plug,

not the cord.

• After using the dryer, turn it off and unplug

children do not use it as a toy.

•Children should be supervised to ensure

that they do not play with the dryer.

• Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be

made by children without supervision.

•Children of less than 3 years should be

kept away from the appliance unless

continuously supervised.

• The appliance must be installed correctly

and have proper ventilation. The air intake

at the front of the dryer should never be

obstructed (see Installation).

• Never use the dryer on carpeting where the

pile height would prevent air from entering

the dryer from the base.

• Check to see if the dryer is empty before

loading it.

• The back of the dryer could become very

hot.

Never touch it while in use.

• Do not use the dryer unless the filter,

watercontainer and condenser are securely

in place (see Maintenance).

• Do not overload the dryer (see Laundry

for maximum loads).

• Do not load items that are dripping wet.

• Carefully check all instructions on clothing

labels (see Laundry).

• Do not tumble dry large, very bulky items.

• Do not tumble dry acrylic fibres at high

temperatures.

• Complete each programme with its Cool

Tumble Phase.

• Do not turn off the dryer when there are still

warm items inside.

• Clean the filter after each use (see

Maintenance).

• Empty the water container after each use (see

Maintenance).

●• Clean the condenser unit at regular intervals (see

Maintenance).

• Never climb on top of the dryer. It could

result in damage.

• Always follow electrical standards and

requirements (see Installation).

• Always buy original spare parts and

accessories (see Service).

To minimise the risk of fire in

your tumble dryer, the following

should be observed:

• Tumble dry items only if they have been

washed with detergent and water, rinsed and

been through the spin cycle. It is a fire hazard

to dry items that HAVE NOT been washed

with water.

●• Do not dry garments that have been treated

with chemical products.

• Do not tumble dry items that have

been spotted or soaked with vegetable

or cooking oils, this constitutes a fire

hazard. Oil-affected items can ignite

spontaneously,especially when exposed to

heat sources such as a tumble dryer. The

items become warm, causing an oxidisation

reaction with the oil, Oxidisation creates

heat. If the heat cannot escape, items can

become hot enough to catch fire. Piling,

stacking or storing oil-effected items can

prevent heat from escaping and so create

a fire hazard.If it is unavoidable that fabrics

containing vegetable or cooking oil or those

that have been contaminated with hair care

products be placed in a tumble dryer they

should first be washed with extra detergent

- this will reduce, but not eliminate the

hazard. The cool tumble phase should

be used to reduce the temperature of the

items. They should not be removed from

the dryer and piled or stacked while hot.

• Do not tumble dry items that have

previously been cleaned in or washed in,

soaked in or soiled with petrol/gasoline,

dry cleaning solvents or other flammable

or explosive substances. Highly flammable

substances commonly used in domestic

environments including cooking oil,

acetone, denatured alcohol, kerosene,

spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax

removers. Ensure these items have been

washed in hot water with an extra amount

of detergent before being dried in the

tumble dryer.

●• Do not tumble dry items containing foam

rubber (also known as latex foam), or

similarly textured rubber like materials.

Foam rubber materials can, when heated,

produce fire by spontaneous combustion.

●• Fabric softener or similar products should

not be used in a tumble dryer to eliminate

the effects of static electricity unless the

practice is specifically recommended by the

manufacturer of the fabric softener product.

• Do not tumble dry undergarments that

contain metal reinforcements eg. bras

with metal reinforcing wires. Damage to

the tumble dryer can result if the metal

reinforcements come loose during drying.

●• Do not tumble dry rubber, plastic articles

such as shower caps or babies waterproof

covers, polythene or paper.

• Do not tumble dry rubber backed articles,

clothes fitted with foam rubber pads,

pillows, galoshes and rubber coated tennis

shoes.

• Remove all objects from pockets, especially

lighters.

! WARNING: Never stop the dryer before

the end of the drying cycle unless all

items are quickly removed and spread

out so that the heat is dissipated.

Save energy and respect the

environment

• Wring out all items to eliminate excess water

before tumble drying (if you use a washing

machine first, select a high spin cycle). Doing

this will save time and energy during drying.

• Always dry full loads - you save energy: single

items or small loads take longer to dry.

• Clean the filter after each use to contain energy

consumption costs (see Maintenance).
