Program chart  
Which program should I use?  
Timed drying  
This program chart is designed to help you dry your laundry correctly. The program/timer knob has two different  
sections, each with its own drying temperature and time scale:  
is used to represent cotton. Here you can set the dryer for up to 120 minutes, because cotton and thick  
non-synthetic fabrics need longer to dry.  
is used to represent synthetic fabrics and delicate items. Because these are more sensitive than cotton, they  
need a lower drying temperature. Here you can set the dryer for up to 80 minutes.  
Do not overdry your laundry. It can make it difficult to iron, and harsher to the touch, besides wasting energy.  
During the last 8-12 minutes of each program, the load is cooled to reduce the risk of creasing.

If the laundry is spun at less than 800 rpm, the residual dampness will be higher and consequently the  
drying time should be increased. If the laundry is spun at 1000 rpm or higher the residual dampness will be  
lower and consequently the drying time can be reduced.

General washing and drying information  
Sorting  
Items which should not be tumble  
Always sort loads for drying according to the type of  
textile (check the care labels) and how much you want to  
dry them. Load items loosely into the drum. Do up zip  
fasteners and tie loose ribbons, tapes or fabric belts.  
Close any tapes or fasteners on duvet covers and pillow  
cases to prevent smaller items from getting trapped  
inside.  
dried  
Items which are especially delicate, such as curtains of  
synthetic fabric, woollen garments, silk, textiles with a  
metal component, nylon socks/stockings.Garments made  
mostly from foam rubber or rubber-like materials must  
NOT be dried in the tumble dryer.  
Spinning (water extraction)  
Obviously, you must not dry garments in the  
machine which are unsuitable for tumble  
drying. These are usually labelled with this  
symbol.  
Loads should be well spun. The higher the spin speed,  
the faster your tumble dryer will dry the load, and the  
more energy-efficient the whole process will be. Do not  
tumble dry dripping wet garments.  
Garments which have been treated with  
flammable liquids (benzine, alcohol, stain  
removal products) should not be dried in the  
tumble dryer on account of the risk of fire.  
Always follow the recommendations of the  
garment/item manufacturer.  
Getting the load size right  
An overloaded tumble dryer will cause creasing. Drying  
loads which are too small is uneconomical.  
Fluff  
The first time you use the tumble dryer, you will  
probably be surprised at the amount of fluff produced.  
This is perfectly normal, and does not mean that your  
tumble dryer is wearing out your clothes. When  
garments are worn and washed by hand or machine,  
fibres and fluff are released, but remain on the surface of  
the material. If dried outdoors on a line these fibres will  
be blown away by the wind. In a tumble dryer the fluff is  
collected in the filter and accumulates through the drying  
process.  
Tumble drying beneficial  
Do not tumble dry  
Dry flat  
Shrinkage  
To avoid shrinking, garments should not be overdried.  
Always check the care labels on your fabrics.

Regular care of your tumble dryer  
The filters  
For your tumble dryer to function properly, the filters need  
to be cleaned before or after every load dried. To clean  
them:  
A
1. Open the door.  
2. Open the coarse filter upwards (Fig. A).  
3. Brush the fluff off the fluff filter (Fig. B), which is  
under the coarse filter. Sometimes you may need to  
remove the fluff filter to clean it on both sides.  
Make sure that you put the fluff filter back  
B
correctly after cleaning, before closing the coarse  
filter.  
Never start the dryer unless the fluff filter is clean  
and correctly in place. Do not use the dryer if the  
fluff filter is damaged (this could cause overheating).  
C
D
The condenser  
As in all types of tumble dryer, the air circulated through  
the dryer picks up fluff. As a result, some fluff will  
accumulate in the condenser, so it needs to be cleaned  
occasionally. To clean the condenser:  
1. Open the door and open the coarse filter upwards.  
2. Remove the fluff filter and close the coarse filter  
again.  
3. Grasp the recesses at the top of the condenser with  
your fingers and use your thumbs to press against the  
door (Fig. C & D). The condenser will come free,  
allowing you to lift it outwards/ upwards. Be careful  
not to damage the sensitive aluminium section.  
4. Turn it upside down, and clean it on both sides using  
a vacuum cleaner. Remove the red drain plug on the  
lower edge of the condenser (Fig E). Lay the  
condenser flat and fill it with water through the filter  
opening. Now leave the condenser to soak in  
water for about five minutes, then spray hot water  
through it (e.g. with a hand-held shower) from  
both sides (Fig. F). Dry the condenser carefully  
afterwards. Don’t forget to put back the red drain  
plug (Fig. G).  
E
F
5. Put the condenser back in the dryer. Make sure  
that its base is lined up in the slots in the condenser  
cavity inside the dryer door. Press the condenser  
carefully into place until you feel and hear a  
gentle “snap”. Put back the fluff filter and close  
the coarse filter.

Emptying the water tank  
A warning light on the control panel will come on  
when it is time to empty the water tank. If it is operating  
when this happens, the dryer will stop automatically  
until the tank is emptied. It is a good idea to get into the  
habit of emptying the tank either before or after each  
load.  
A
B
To empty the tank:  
1. Open the door.  
2. Pull out the tank (Fig. A).  
3. Open the tank lid and pour the water out (Fig. B).  
4. Close the lid and push the tank back into place.  
Press it home until you can feel that it is  
properly “engaged” in place.

The adjustable feet must not be removed.  
They ensure that there is adequate ventilation  
underneath the dryer.  
Choosing where to install the dryer  
You can install this dryer in a number of different ways.  
We will show you the most suitable of these. Whichever  
way you install it, here are some points to bear in mind:  
Always ensure that the dryer is level.  
The temperature in the room should not exceed  
+35°C when the dryer is operating. If it does, open  
a door or window while the dryer is on.  
The area around the dryer should be as dust-free as  
possible.  
If you install the dryer with its door hinge side  
towards a wall, or next to a cupboard or wall unit  
which is more than 370 mm deep, you will need to  
leave a space on the hinge side at least 30 mm wide.  
This is to allow the door to open wide enough for  
removing the water tank.  
Electrical supply  
The dryer is supplied with a lead and electrical plug for  
connection to an earthed wall socket, 240 V, 13 A. If the  
dryer is to have fixed wiring to the electrical supply, this  
should only be carried out by a qualified electrician or  
competent person.  
Ensure the air ducts are not obstructed.

Worktop installation  
If you prefer to install your dryer on a worktop, you must  
anchor it at the top rear to prevent it from tipping  
forwards.  
Method:  
Begin by placing the dryer on the worktop in the  
position where it is to be installed.  
Level the dryer with the aid of its adjustable feet.  
On the wall, mark the position of the hole needed  
for the screw eye. The correct place is opposite the  
centre of the left-hand bracket on the top rear of the  
dryer. Drill a hole for a 5.5 mm diameter plastic  
wall plug.  
40 mm  
Screw the screw eye supplied (1) into place. Once  
in place, the “eye” (aperture) of the screw eye needs to  
be 40 mm from the wall.  
Position the dryer so that the eye is correctly  
aligned in the bracket.  
Fit the pin (2) through bracket and eye, and lock it  
in place with the split-pin (3).  
- 15 -  
 
370 mm deep, don’t forget to leave a space at least 30  
mm wide on the left of the dryer so that the door can  
open wide enough.There should be a clear space at least  
200 mm high between the top of the dryer and the  
ceiling or any cupboard above the dryer, to ensure  
adequate ventilation at the top.  
Wall mounting  
Before deciding on the wall mounting site, it is important  
to check that the electrical lead will reach the wall socket  
once the dryer is in place. All electrical work performed on  
the dryer should be done by a qualified electrician or  
competent person.If you are installing the dryer between  
wall-mounted cupboards, you should use the wall  
mounting kit. If the adjacent cupboards are more than
