IMPORTANT

Using your Tumble Dryer is easy.

Nevertheless, for your own safety and to get the best results it is important to know your

Dryer by reading right through this handbook before using your dryer for the first time.

A CHILD COULD CLIMB INTO OR TAMPER WITH AN UNATTENDED

TUMBLE DRYER.

WHEN THE MACHINE IS NOT IN USE SWITCH OFF, REMOVE THE PLUG AND

CLOSE THE DOOR.

IMPORTANT

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.

Changing

the plug

Rewirable plug

Changing the

mains cable

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.

WARNING:The plug must not be used without a fuse cover.

NOTE: IF IN DOUBT ABOUT ANY OF THE ABOVE CONSULT 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. When the dryer is fitted under a

work surface allow space for air to enter the rear grille, 10mm above

the dryer minimum.

DO NOT use 2-way adaptors or extension leads.

The Dryer dries your washing by drawing in air that is cool, clean

and relatively dry, heating it and then blowing it through the clothes

as they are gently tumbled. The moisture laden air is then blown out

at the back of the dryer through the vent hose which is

recommended for optimum performance.

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 must always be fitted when the dryer is used in

conjunction with Mobile Venting.

The hose must be fitted securely into the back of the dryer (see

diagram on previous page). If possible, it is always best to connect

the hose to a permanent outlet close to the dryer (see instructions

below).

Ensure that the end of the hose is not directed towards the air

intake grille at the rear of the dryer.

If permanent installation is not possible, the dryer will work just as

well with the hose passed through a partly-opened window.

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.

See diagram on previous page.

Fitting the Vent

Hose Kit

Where to put and vent your dryer

In conjunction with the vent hose we recommend the use of a

Wall/Window Vent Kit. These are available from your retailer or

nearest Spares Centre.

Fitting instructions are supplied with the kits, which can be mounted

through a wall or window. Details of positioning for wall mounting

are as follows:- Break a hole through the wall to the left of the

proposed position for the dryer. Keep the hose as short and straight

as possible to prevent condensed moisture running back into the

dryer. Similarly the duct inserted into the wall should slope

downwards to the outside. For window venting with stacked dryer,

the hole in the window should ideally be made below the outlet and

the hose should be kept as short as possible.

Depending on the frequency of use, it is essential that the areas

A and B in the illustrations are checked periodically and any fluff

or debris removed.

It is particularly important that the vent hose adaptor is fitted

securely thus preventing any moisture laden air from being

emitted back into the room.

NOTE: The dryer should not be pushed so far back that the

hose adaptor is pulled out of position or the hose squashed.

The hose should be kept clear of the air intake grille and kinks

or ‘U’ bends avoided as these will obstruct the hose or trap

condensation.

For open window venting it must be possible for the end of the hose

to be directed downwards to prevent warm, moist air condensing in

the room or in the dryer.

WARNING:

1. ENSURE THAT THE DRYER IS ADEQUATELY

VENTILATED AND THAT THE END OF THE VENT HOSE

IS NOT DIRECTED TOWARDS THE AIR INTAKE DUCT.

2. THE DRYER MUST NOT RECYCLE EXHAUST AIR.

3. THE VENT HOSE MUST ALWAYS BE FITTED FOR

OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE.

4. MAKE SURE THAT THE VENT HOSE AND AIR INTAKE

GRILLES ARE NOT OBSTRUCTED OR BLOCKED.

5. MISUSE OF A TUMBLE DRYER MAY CREATE A FIRE

HAZARD.

6. DO NOT DISCHARGE THE EXHAUST AIR INTO A FLUE

WHICH IS USED FOR EXHAUSTING FUMES FROM

OTHER APPLIANCES BURNING GAS OR OTHER FUELS.

Turn the timer clockwise to select the required drying time.

The drying time for both heat settings is controlled by the timer. All you

have to do is turn the Timer Control clockwise slightly past the required

time and then back to the required time.

Do not rotate the knob beyond 120 (maximum drying time) or past the

zero stop. If you have selected more time than you require turn the knob

anti-clockwise to select the correct time required.

This operation also starts the dryer, provided the door is closed and the

machine is plugged in. The “Guide to Drying Times” section will tell you

how much time you’ll need for various loads.

To open door, grip handle and pull towards you.

If the door is opened while the dryer is in use, the drying programme cuts

out automatically and the machine stops. When the door is closed the

dryer will restart but you will not need to reset the timer control.

You can however reset the Timer Control at any stage should you wish.

To select high heat (Cottons and Synthetics), the Heat Selection switch

must be IN.

To select Low heat (Acrylics) the Heat Selection switch must be OUT.

See section “Guide to Drying Times”.
