6. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
ANY PR
OBLEMS
If you feel the appliance is not drying correctly, please carry out
these quick checks:
MIN.(SLO
W) ENERGY SETTING
Please note that this setting is 4 times as long as the
MAX.(FAST) Setting and is approximately 8 hours.
When using this setting, no heat can be felt from the
appliance.
MAX.(FAST) SETTING
When using this setting, the machine and load may feel
cooler than a conventional tumble dryer. This is due to it’s
energy saving capabilities and is perfectly normal.
Check that you used the correct heater setting (If
applicable).
Check that the lint filter has been has been cleaned and the
vent hose is not constricted. A blocked filter or
vent hose will restrict the airflow.
Check that your dryer is heating - below the door to the right
side
, should f
eel warm to the touch after the first 10-15
minutes of its programme. Failure to heat may indicate the
safety cut-out has operated. To reset, simply press the red
button at the rear of the machine. If it has operated, a sharp
“clic
k” will be heard.This cut-out only operates if the airflow
is se
v
erely restricted so mak
e sure the filter is clean, the air
inlets and outlets at the front and back are not blocked, and
that all other restrictions are removed before re-starting.
Check that the machine has the correct weight load in the
drum.
If the cut-out contin
ues to oper
ate after chec
king the abo
v
e
points, you should contact your service agent.
If your machine
does not work check the following before calling
a service engineer:
Check that there is a supply of electricity.
Check that the door has been properly closed and the
machine is switched on. Press the start button (if fitted)
Check the fuse in the moulded plug.

1. INSTALLATION
Open the door
.
Load clothes loosely into the drum.
Load sheets first, star
ting with one cor
ner.
Close the door.
Dr
y y
our hands
.
Plug in the machine.
Choose the final dryness level.
Select the required heat setting.
Select the required energy setting
and press star
t.
The drum will rotate in an anticlockwise direction, with the drying
status light (if fitted) flashing once.
The drum will now begin to rotate clockwise and will stop
automatically when y
our clothes are dr
y
.
The drum will stop and
rotate in the other direction for a short while every few minutes.
If a load is checked mid cycle restart the appliance by, closing the
door and pressing the start button.When drying large items such
as sheets
, w
e suggest y
ou per
iodically stop the dryer to
redistribute the load.
When drying mixed loads, the dryer may stop when the lighter
items are dry. These should be removed and the dryer restarted
to allo
w the hea
vier items to contin
ue dr
ying.
There is an automatic 12 minute cool down period at the end of
every cycle, during which the heater is switched off.This helps to
minimise creasing.
An anti crease cycle will contin
ue until the door is opened.
This
intermittently rotates the drum, to prevent creasing.
NEVER SWITCH THE DRYER OFF AND LEAVE A
HOT LOAD IN THE DRUM.
- RISK OF FIRE.
AFTER REMOVING THE DRIED CLOTHES:
ALWAYS CLEAN THE FILTER. Failure to clean the filter will
extend drying times and could cause the safety cut-out to
oper
ate
.
Pull the filter upwards and away
from the appliance.
Remove any threads or fluff by
hand or with a soft brush.
Slide the filter back.
Wash the filter occasionally in
detergent solution using a
soft brush to remove small
par
ticles
.
CARE LABELS YOU MAY FIND ON YOUR
FABRICS
Do not tumble dry woollen or wool mixture articles unless the
ar
ticle is labelled to be suitab
le
.This should avoid shrinkage.
Do not attempt to dr
y dripping wet articles.
Place delicate articles e.g. tights, scarves, inside a pillowcase.
To avoid the need to iron easycare polyester/cotton items it is
better to only dry small loads (i.e half fill drum).
It is better to dry small and large articles together.
We suggest a fabric conditioner be used to reduce static
electricity.
Do not overload the dryer or dry large bulky items such as
duvets or sleeping bags as it is important that the airflow through
the dr
yer is not obstructed.
Do not place items contaminated with inflammable substances
in the dryer, such as petrol, cleaning solvents, cooking oil, fat, or
hair lacquer.These can cause fires.For the same reason, do not
dr

Indicates that Anti crease is in operation and that the
clothes are ready to be removed from the dryer.
The neon will flash on at the start of the drying cycle.
C. DRYNESS SELECTOR
Choose the final dryness of the load by selecting the
desired dryness. (see programme chart).
Note: The use of an iron dry programme will use 30%
less energy than a cupboard dry programme.
D. MIN.(SLOW)
This can be selected at any time with any of the dryness
programmes.
Note: When selected, the drying time will be extended
by approximately 4 times, however the total energy
consumed per cycle is 30% less compared to the fast
mode
.
The savings from the use of the min.(slow) Energy mode
are additional to those from the use of the iron dry
programmes.
E. HEAT SELECTOR
To select full or half heat.
FRONT VENTING
T
his is a special type of dryer
which vents through a grille on the
plinth. The opening on the rear is
blanked off during manufacturing.
FIXED REAR VENTING
Venting is through the large
opening at the bottom of the
rear panel. A separate
extendible vent hose can be
attached if desired
EXTENDABLE REAR VENTING
A
long flexible hose is built into the
dryer and can be extended from
the large opening at the rear of the
machine.
Rear vented dryers can be used without a vent hose but not in a
confined space. Rear vented machines must have a vent hose if
they are installed under a work surface.To minimise condensation it
is preferable to vent through a vent hose to outside. This may be
through an open door or window.The best solution is to connect the
vent hose to a permanent connection through a wall or single glazed
window.
This is particularly recommended for small, cool rooms. A kit for this
purpose is available as an accessory. Front venting machines must
be converted to extendible rear venting before a permanent
connection can be made to the outside.
smell of burning will be caused by dust on
the heater and will quickly disappear.
Slide the filter into its oper
ating position
(see diagrams).
IMPORTANT : When using this dryer, the machine and
load may feel cooler than a conventional tumble dryer.
This is due to its energy saving capabilites and is
perfectly normal
PROGRAMME CHART
If your filter becomes damaged, replace it to ensure no damage
is caused to the dryer.
