GB!Keep this instruction booklet on hand in order to refer to
it when necessary. Take it with you when you move, and
should you sell this appliance or pass it on to another
party, make sure that this booklet is supplied along
with the dryer so that the new owner may be informed
about warnings and suggestions on how the dryer
works.
!Read these instructions carefully; the following
pages contain important information on installation
and suggestions on how the appliance works.
Door Reversal Instructions 
The door of your dryer is reversible and can easily be
changed. Exchange diagonally hinge brackets and
blanking screws. Exchange door latch and catch with
their opposite blanking plates (see diagram above).
Where to put your dryer 
Place your dryer at a distance from gas ranges,
stoves, heaters, or cook tops because flames can 
damage the appliance.
If you are going to install the appliance under a 
work counter, be sure to leave a 10mm space 
between the top and any other objects on or 
above the machine and a 15mm space between the
sides and lateral furnishings or walls. This is to ensure
proper air circulation. Make sure that the back vents
are not obstructed.
Ventilation
When the dryer is in use, there has to be adequate
ventilation. Make sure you put your dryer in an 
environment that is not damp and has proper air 
circulation throughout. Airflow around the dryer is
essential to condense the water produced during the
washing, the dryer will not operate efficiently in an
enclosed space or cupboard.
!If using the dryer in a small or cold room some 
condensation could be experienced.
Door catch
Door latchHinge
Hinge
Water drain
If your dryer is installed next to a drain the water can be
plumbed into this drain. This does away with the need to
empty the water container. Simply remove the top hose
from its top fitting at the rear of the dryer and plumb the
hose provided to the drain.
Electrical connections
Make sure of the following before you insert the plug
into the the electrical socket:
The socket must be grounded.
The socket must be able to sustain the machines 
maximum power, which is indicated on the rating 
label (see Dryer Description).
Power voltage must be within the values indicated 
on the rating label (see Dryer Description).
The socket must be compatible with the dryers plug.
Should this not be the case, replace the plug or the
socket.
!The dryer must not be installed outdoors, even if the
space is sheltered. It can be very dangerous if it is
exposed to rain or storms.
!Once installed, the dryers electrical wire and plug
must be within easy reach.
!Do not use extension cords.
!The power cord must not be bent or squashed.
!The power cord supplied should be checked 
periodicallyand replaced by a cord specially prepared
for this dryer and fitted only be authorised technicians
(see Service). New or longer power cords are supplied
at an extra charge by authorised dealers.
!The manufacturer denies any responsibility should any
of these rules not be followed.
!If in doubt about any of the above consult a qualified 
electrician.
Before you start using your dryer
Once you have installed your dryer and before you
use it, clean the inside of the drum to remove any dust
that could have accumulated during transport.

Easy Iron Programme
‘Easy Iron’ is a short 10 minute programme (8 minutes of heat followed by a 2 minute cool tumble period) which
fluffs the fibres of clothing that have been left in the same position/location for an extended period of time. The cycle
relaxes the fibres and makes them easier to iron and fold.
!‘Easy Iron’ is not a drying programmeand should not be used for wet articles of clothing.
For best results:
1. Do not load more than the maximum capacity. These numbers refer to the dry weight:
Fabric Maximum load
Cotton and Cotton mixtures 2.5kg
Synthetics 2kg
Denim 2kg
2. Unload the dryer immediately after the end of the programme, hang, fold or iron the articles and put 
them away in the closet. Should this not be possible repeat the programme.
The ‘Easy Iron’ effect varies from one fabric to the next. It works well on traditional fabrics like Cotton or Cotton mix,
and less well on acrylic fibres and on materials such as Tencel®.
Special sports
This is a programme for tumble dryer safe garments, such as Tracksuits and Shorts marked with the symbol     .
It can be used for load sizes up to 1.5kg
We recommend that garments are turned inside out before drying.
This programme will take up to 130 minutes. The actual time will vary depending on the size and density of the 
load and the spin speed used in your washer.
Loads dried using this programme are usually ready to wear, but on some heavier garments the edges may be 
slightly damp. Special shoes
This is a programme to dry one pair of sports shoes sized 37-46 (4-11).
The shoes must have been washed and spun at a minimum spin speed of 400rpm.
They must be used with the shoe rack provided. If you tumble shoes in the drum 
you will damage your dryer.
Remove the filter from its position in the front of the dryer and fit the rack.
Tuck the laces inside the shoes and load shoes with toes down and soles facing you.
Drying times will vary dependant on the size and style of shoe. If shoes are not 
completely dry at the end of the programme, run the programme again.
!Do not dry shoes with Gel inserts or flashing lights.
!Only dry shoes made from Synthetics or Canvas materials.
!When finished remove shoe rack and replace the filter.

period of drying.Wash Care Labels
Look at the labels on your garments, especially when
tumble drying for the first time. The following symbols
are the most common:
May be tumble dried
Do nottumble dry
Tumble dry at high heat setting
Tumble dry at low heat setting
Items not suitable for tumble drying
Articles that containing rubber or rubber-like 
materials or plastic film (pillows, cushions, or PVC 
rainwear), any other flammable articles or objects 
that contain flammable substances (towels soiled 
with hair spray).
Glass fibres (certain types of draperies)
Items which have been dry cleaned
Items with the ITCL Code       (see Special 
clothing items). These can be cleaned with special
at-home dry cleaning products. Follow instructions
carefully.
Large bulky items (quilts, sleeping bags, pillows, 
cushions, large bedspreads etc). These expand 
when drying and would prevent airflow through 
the dryer.

GB
Laundry
Special clothing items
Blankets and Bedspreads:acrylic items (Acilan,
Courtelle, Orion, Dralon)must be driedwith special
care on LOW heat setting.  Avoid drying for a long
period of time.  
Pleated or creased garments:read the manufacturer’s
drying instructions on the garment.
Starched articles:do not dry these with non-starched
items. Make sure that as much of the starch solution is
removed from the load as possible before placing it in
the dryer. Do not over-dry: the starch will become
powdery and leave your clothing limp, which defeats
the purpose of starch.

Times are approximate and can vary depending
upon:
Amount of water retained in clothes after spin 
cycle: towels and delicates retain a lot of water.
Fabrics: items that are the same type of fabric but 
different textures and thicknesses may not have 
the same drying time.
Quantity of laundry: single items or small loads 
may take longer to dry.
Dryness: If you are going to iron some of your 
clothes, they can be taken out while still a bit 
damp. Others can be left longer if you need them 
to be completely dry.
Heat setting.
Room temperature: if the room where the dryer is  
located is cold, it will take longer for the dryer to 
dry your clothes.
Bulk: some bulky items can be tumble dried with 
care. We suggest that you remove these items 
several times, shake them out, and return them to 
the dryer until finished.
!Do not over-dry your clothes.
All fabrics contain a little natural moisture, which
keeps them soft and fluffy.

General safety
This tumble dryer has been designed for home, 
and not professional use.
This dryer must be used by adults, and the 
instructions in this booklet should be followed carefully.
Do not touch the appliance while barefoot or with 
wet hands or feet.
Unplug the machine by pulling on the plug, not 
the cord.
Children must not be in proximity of the dryer 
when in use. After using the dryer, turn it off and 
unplug it. Keep the door closed to make sure that 
children do not use it as a toy.
The appliance must be installed correctly and

Recycling and disposal information
As part of our continued commitment to helping the
environment, we reserve the right to use quality recycled
components to keep down customer costs and minimise
material wastage.
Disposing of the packaging material: follow local 
regulations, so the packaging can be recycled.
To minimise risk of injury to children, remove the 
door and plug - then cut off mains cable, flush 
with the appliance. Dispose of these parts separately
to ensure that the appliance can no longer be 
plugged into a mains socket.
Disposal of old electrical appliances
The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical
and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old
household electrical appliances must not be disposed
of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream.
Old appliances must be collected separately in order
to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials
they contain and reduce the impact on human health
and the environment. 
The crossed out “wheeled bin” symbol on
the product reminds you of your obligation,
that when you dispose of the appliance it
must be separately collected.
Consumers should contact their local authority or
retailer for information concerning the correct disposal
of their old appliance.
Saving energy and respecting the 
environment
Wring out 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).

!Your dryer uses special bearing components which
do not need lubrication.
!Have your dryer checked regularly by authorised
technicians to ensure electrical and mechanical safety
(see Service).
Switching off the electricity
!Unplug your dryer when not using it, when cleaning
it and during all maintenance operations.
Clean the filter after each cycle
The filter is an important part of your dryer: 
it accumulates lint and fluff that is formed while drying. 
When finished drying, clean the filter by rinsing it
under running water or with your vacuum cleaner.
Should the filter become clogged up, the airflowinside
the dryer will be seriously compromised: drying times
lengthen and you will consume more energy. It may
also damage your dryer.
The filter is found in front of the dryer trim (see diagram).
Removing the filter:
1. Pull the plastic grip of the filter upwards (see diagram).
2. Clean the filter and replace it correctly.
Ensure the filter is fully located flush into the tumble
dryer trim.
!Do not use the dryer without replacing the filter.
Empty the water container after each
cycle
Pull the container out of the dryer and empty it into a
sink or other suitable drain. 
Replace the water container securely.
Check the drum after each cycle
Turn the drum manually in order to remove small items
(handkerchiefs) that could have been left behind.
