Your New Tumble Dryer
This tumble dryer will give your wash that soft, relaxed feel whatever
the weather.
Extremely high quality standards both during development and
manufacturing guarantee a long service life for your appliance.
Maximum economy in the operation of your dryer is achieved through
very frugal electricity consumption and short drying times.
Energy saving tips
In the interest
of the environment
To save energy we recommend that you follow these
hints:
• Try to load the maximum capacity of the machine
as small loads are uneconomical.
• Materials marked with the symbol
are
recyclable.
• Always load well spun laundry. The higher the
spin speed, the lower the electricity consumption
and the shorter the drying times.
• Check with your local Council or Environmental
Health Office to see if there are facilities in your
area for re-cycling this appliance.
• Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and
• When the appliance is to be scrapped, cut off the
power supply cable and make the door closing
device unusable to prevent young children from
being trapped inside.
saves energy.
• Clean the filters regularly to avoid excessive
drying times and high electricity consumption.
• Help to keep your country tidy - use authorised
• Ventilate the room well. The room temperature

Drying Time Selector
1Programme Chart
The selector dial incorporates two drying cycles, one
of up to 150 minutes at a high temperature for cotton
and linen, and one of up to 100 minutes at a low
temperature for synthetic fabrics.
This will help you to select the correct time for
drying.
2Low Temperature
Button
To set the machine to the selected time, turn the dial
clockwise until the time you want coincides exactly
with the pointer.
Press this button to reduce the temperature when
drying particularly delicate cotton or linen items.
In this case you should select a longer drying time.
On the programmes for synthetics the temperature is
automatically reduced.
NEVER attempt to turn the dial in an anticlockwise
direction.
When selecting the drying time, you should
remember that it includes a 10 minute cooling phase
Therefore it is not necessary to depress this button.
(position
on the dial).
This phase should not be shortened, stopped or
avoided, as this could cause skin burns or damages to
the laundry.
3Start Button
After selecting the drying time press this button to
start the programme.
Additional drying
If the door is opened during drying, this button has to
be depressed again after closing the door to allow the
programme to continue.
If at the end of the programme the laundry is still too
damp, set the dial for a further period of drying
(remembering to take into account the cooling
period).

Hints & Tips on Drying
Before placing articles of laundry in your tumble
dryer, check the care labels to ensure they are
recommended for tumble drying.
• Always load well spun laundry. The higher the
spin speed the lower the electricity consumption
and the shorter the drying time.
• DO NOT load dripping wet laundry into the
dryer. Roll the article in a towel or spin to remove
excess water.
Care Labels you may find on your laundry
normal drying (high temperature)
delicate drying (low temperature)
may be tumble dried
• Close poppers and zips and fasten any buttons.
• Sort the laundry. Separate synthetics from
cotton/linens, and dry separately.
• Remove the laundry immediately after the
programme has finished.
do not tumble dry
• Use a fabric conditioning sheet to reduce static.
We recommend the sheet is pinned to an article of
laundry (using a safety pin).
Do not overload the appliance.
• Mix the load i.e. large and small articles.
• When drying large items such as sheets, we
recommend you periodically stop the dryer to
redistribute the load.
Here is a list of the approximate weight of some
common laundry items.

Cleaning the filters
Your dryer will only function well if the filters are
clean.
The filters collect all the fluff which accumulates
during drying and they must therefore be cleaned at
the end of each programme, before removing the
laundry, with a damp cloth.

The filter in the inner door must be removed for
cleaning.
Do not be alarmed by the amount of fluff. It is not due
to excessive wear caused by the dryer. All fabric
looses fluff when drying but it goes un-noticed in the
air. In a tumble dryer it simply collects in the filter.

Once in its permanent operating position, check that
the dryer is absolutely level with the aid of a spirit
level. If it is not, raise or lower the two adjustable
feet at the front of the machine until it is.
Unpacking
Warning !
Slide out the polythene bag containing the
polystyrene block before using the appliance.
Pull off adhesive strips from inside machine on
top of drum
P0046
The feet must never be removed.
Do not restrict the floor clearance through deep-
pile carpets, strips of wood or similar. This might
cause heat build-up which would interfere with
the operation of the appliance.
Important
When operating the tumble dryer, the room
temperature must not exceed 35°C, as it may affect
the performance of the appliance.
P1106
Positioning
It is recommended that, for your convenience, the
machine is positioned close to your washing
machine.
Fitting the vent hose
To simplify the installation, there is a choice of vent
outlets: one at the back, the others in the left and
right-hand side.
Connect the hose to whichever is the more
convenient by pulling the ring nut (A) from the vent
outlet at the back, screwing it on to the hose and
pushing it firmly back into place.
The unused vents should now be sealed with the
special snap covers provided
Whilst drying, the tumble dryer will expel a certain
amount of warm, very moist air, and this should be
removed from the room as quickly as possible to
prevent condensation. In an extremely well ventilated
room or close to an open window, this may occur
naturally.
However, in general, it is better to carry the dryer's
exhaust outside via the 100 mm diameter flexible
hose supplied with the appliance; ending either
temporarily at an open window, or permanently at a
fixed ventilation grille, fitted to an exterior wall or
window.
A
The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place,
where dirt does not build up.
Make sure there are no obstructing items or material
near the air-intake louvres provided at the back (e.g.
paper, rags etc.).
A
P1028
P1027
To keep vibration and noise to a minimum when the
dryer is in use, it should be placed on a firm, level
surface.
14
Advice: If the hose is long and the room temperature
low, the moisture might condense to water inside the
hose. This is an unavoidable natural phenomenon.
To prevent this water from lying in the hose or
flowing back into the tumble dryer, it is advisable to
drill a small hole (dia. 3 mm) in the lowest point of
the hose and to place a small container below it.(See
picture, point B).
In order to prevent the appliance from overheating, it
is important that the steam exhaust is unobstructed.
Therefore, in case of a permanent hose fitted to an
exterior wall or ceiling, it must be have an exhaust
capacity of at least 150 m3/h.
If the dryer is fitted next to kitchen units, make
sure that the vent hose is not squashed. If the hose
is partially squashed, drying efficiency will be
reduced, resulting in longer drying times and
higher energy consumption.
If the hose is completely squashed, the safety cut-
outs with which the machine is fitted may operate.
Door reversal
B
P1056
To make it easier to load or unload the laundry the
door can be reversed.
Once connected to the dryer, run the vent hose to the
desired outlet point, ensuring that the run’s overall
length is less than 2 m, and that it contains no more
than two bends. As to the outlet itself, if you have
decided on a fixed wall/window grille, a good local
builder’s merchant should be able to supply you with
the necessary fittings and installation advice.
This operation must be carried out by qualified
personnel.
Please contact the nearest Service Force Centre (Tel:
08705 929 929).
This will be a chargeable option.
Stacking kit
It should be possible to stack your new dryer on top
of your washing machine.
Please contact your Local Service Force Centre for
further advice.
It is important not to connect the vent
hose to, for example, a cooker hood, or
a chimney or flue pipe designed to
carry the exhaust from a fuel burning
appliance.
Note that to avoid condensation problems, it is
essential that the dryer be fitted with the flexible hose
to carry its “exhaust” at least beyond the kitchen units;
preferably outside the kitchen.
P1107

Electrical connection
The wire coloured blue must be connected to the
terminal «N» or coloured black.
Any electrical work required to install this appliance
should be carried out by a qualified electrician or
competent person.
The wire coloured brown must be connected to the
terminal marked «L» or coloured red.
Upon completion there must be no cut, or stray
strands of wire present and the cord clamp must be
secure over the outer sheath.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE
