TECHNICAL DATA
SAFETY INFORMATION
You should read all of these instructions before starting to use the dryer.
The dryer should only be used by persons who have read and understood
the contents of this publication, and who can be expected to comply with the
instructions, including the safety information.
• The appliance must be connected to an electrical supply which is earthed.
If the appliance is to have fixed wiring to the electrical supply, this work
may only be carried out by a qualified electrician.
• The appliance must be secured to the wall behind it, to prevent it from tip-
ping forward. Failure to secure it in this way will invalidate the guarantee.
• The room or area in which the appliance is installed must be suitably venti-
lated.
• The appliance is designed from the evaporation of water only.
• Laundry and other items which have been in contact with volatile solvents
(dry-cleaning fluid, stain-removing solvents etc.) must not be dried in this
appliance, on account of the risk of fire.
• Before any servicing or other work is undertaken on the appliance it must
first be fully isolated from the electrical supply, either by removing the
electrical plug from the socket, or taking the appropriate action if it has
fixed wiring.
IDENTIFICATION OF PARTS
INSTALLATION
• Position the dryer in the place where it is to be installed. Adjust the feet to
ensure the dryer is level (horizontally and vertically). Check the level
using a spirit level. See Fig. 1.
N.B. Important so that the door will tighten against the cupboard.
• Use the wall-plugs, washers and screws supplied to secure the dryer to the
wall. The dryer needs to be in its permanent installation site when you are
drilling and securing it to the wall. See Figs. 1 and 2.
• The vent hose connector and exhaust vent hose should connected to an
existing ventilation system as shown in Figs. 1 and 7. In some cases it
may be difficult to ensure an adequate exhaust air flow to remove moistu-
re as required, in account of restricted space, poor existing ventilation and
so on. In these cases the dryer should be connected to the ventilation
system without using the special air terminal fitting (designed to ensure a
flow of air from the room, independent of the dryer) shown at No. 2 in Fig
1. For this alternative, follow Fig. 8: move the valve from the room venti-
lation system to inside the top of the dryer and connect the exhaust vent
hose directly to the ventilation duct using a spigot connection sleeve. A
spigot connection sleeve is not supplied with the appliance on account of
variation in the required dimensions. In installations of this type the air in-
take on the top of the dryer must not under any circumstances be cove-
red, because the ventilation of the room will now be provided via the dry-
er.
• Install the relevant control knobs on their rods on the front of the dryer.
See Fig. 1.
• Install the dryer racks as shown in Fig. 5, and press them firmly home in
their holders. The racks can be lowered when required, by lifting them
straight up out of their holders and folding them down against the back
wall. See Fig. 5.
• Connect the dryer to an earthed electrical socket.
• To change the side from which the door opens you have to change over
the door hinges and fittings diagonally. See Fig. 6.
ADVICE ON USING THE DRYER
• All types of washing, wet clothes, shoes and equipment can be dried just
as gently as required in a cabinet dryer.
• The load should be hung up to dry in a way which allows air to circulate ef-
ficiently. Items should be distributed evenly throughout the dryer. See Fig.
3.
• Do not overload the dryer racks. Use more than one arm on the racks to
support heavy items.
• The temperature used must not be too high for the specific load. Garment
care labels may provide useful information on suitable temperatures.
To be dried at ”normal” temperature 70°C
To be dried at ”low” temperature no more than 50°C
Guidelines in the absence of labelling:
Cotton and linen 70°C
Synthetics, wool, silk 30 50°C
• When drying shoes or boots, the base of the dryer can be protected with
newspaper or equivalent, which can be discarded later.
Using a cabinet dryer allows you to control not only the drying time and
temperature, but also the level of energy consumption. The dryer has a
built-in thermostat and timer. The temperature control knob has a range of
0 – 70°C, and the timer can be set for up to 4 hours. The dryer is started
and stopped by means of the timer control. See Fig. 1.
From the point of view of energy conservation, longer drying times (at lower
temperatures) are preferable.
The most economical option for drying is to hang the load inside the dryer
and leave the door in its airing position, without either the fan or the heating
switched on.
Another economy option is to set the temperature control at 0°C, put the
door in airing position, and operate the fan only.
For the door airing position, see Fig. 4.
Guideline drying times and energy consumption figures are shown in the ta-
ble below.
The figures quoted are for a 3 kilogram load (weight when dry) which has
been spun at 900 rpm (70% of moisture remaining). Wash loads which have
been spun at speeds higher than this and with less moisture remaining requi-
re less drying time and less energy to dry.
In houses with mechanical ventilation systems there is frequently the option
of accelerating the total exhaust air flow from the dwelling. If experience
shows that the air humidity is frequently too high when the dryer is in use,
this humidity can be reduced significantly if the air flow is accelerated at the
start of the drying time.
CARE
Use only water and a soap solution for cleaning the dryer.
Important: Never use volatile solvents.
If water accumulates inside the base of the dryer it should be removed with
a sponge or cloth. The base of the dryer should be kept as clean as possible
at all times. It will generally be dry, in which case it can be cleaned with a
vacuum cleaner.
FAULT-TRACING
If the fan fails to operate, check:
— that the timer is on
— that the electrical plug is in the socket and switched on
— that no fuses have blown
— that the thermal cutout has not tripped (see the section the
thermal cutout).
If the dryer is not heating, check:
— that the temperature control is set at the required temperature
Thermal cutout. If this is tripped, both the fan motor and the heating ele-
ments will cut out.
To restart the dryer, turn the timer control to ”0”, then after about five minu-
tes turn it to the required drying time.
Always investigate why the thermal cutout has tripped, and rectify the pro-
blem if you can. Two possible causes are that the air intake on the top of
the dryer has become blocked or covered, or that the dryer load has been
hung up in a way which prevents adequate circulation of air.
SERVICE
If you cannot identify the cause of or rectify a malfunction, contact
the service company authorised by the machine’s supplier.
Use only genuine spare parts.
Before contacting the service company, make a note of the machi-
ne model, product number and serial number. This information can
be found on the data plate inside the dryer.
