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  
To save energy we recommend that you follow these

are  
as small loads are uneconomical.  
I
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.  
I
I
I
I
I
Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and  
saves energy.  
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.  
Clean the filter regularly to avoid excessive drying  
times and high electricity consumption.  
Help to keep your country tidy - use authorised  
disposal sites for your old appliance.  
Ventilate the room well. The room temperature  
should not exceed +35°C during drying.  
How do we help to protect the  
environment? We use recycled paper!

1 Programme Chart  
This will help you to select the correct time for  
drying.  
3 Drying Time Selector Dial  
The selector dial incorporates two drying cycles, one  
of up to 120 minutes at a high temperature for cotton  
and linen, and one of up to 80 minutes at a low  
temperature for synthetic fabrics.  
2 Mains-On Light  
This lights up when the machine starts operating and  
goes out at the end of the programme.  
To set the machine to the selected time, turn the dial  
clockwise until the time you want coincides exactly  
with the pointer.  
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  
(position  
on the dial).  
This phase should not be shortened, stopped or  
avoided, as this could cause skin burns or damages to  
the laundry.

Operating Sequence  
Before using your tumble dryer for the first time, we  
recommend to place a few damp cloths inside the  
appliance and dry for approximately 20 minutes.  
There may be dust inside a brand new tumble dryer.  
1. Load the laundry  
Open the door by pulling the door handle forwards.  
Load the items one at a time, shaking them out  
loosely and close the door.  
Please check the laundry does not get caught between  
the door and filter.  
P0305  
2. Select the drying time  
Turn the selector dial clockwise to the desired time  
(in the high or low temperature range, according to  
the fabrics). The mains-on light illuminates and the  
programme starts.  
100  
P0486S  
3. When drying is completed  
The machine stops automatically and the mains-on  
light goes out.  
Open the door and take out the laundry.  
Clean the filter after every drying programme.  
A clean filter ensures correct functioning of the  
appliance.

Hints & Tips on Drying  
I
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.  
I
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  
I
I
Close poppers and zips and fasten any buttons.  
Sort the laundry. Separate synthetics from  
cotton/linens, and dry separately.  
I
I
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.  
Here is a list of the approximate weight of some  
common laundry items.  
I
I
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.  
Sheet  
700 to 1000 g  
Pillowcase  
Tablecloth  
Table Napkin  
Kitchen Towel  
Linen Hand Towel

Maintenance and Cleaning  
You must disconnect the appliance from the electricity  
supply, before you can carry out any cleaning or  
maintenance work.  
External cleaning  
Use only soap and water and then dry thoroughly.  
From time to time, apply a little wax furniture cream  
with a soft cloth.  
Important: do not use methylated spirit, diluents or  
similar products.  
Cleaning the door  
Clean periodically the interior part of the door to  
remove any fluff.  
Accurate cleaning ensures correct drying.  
P0328  
Cleaning the filter  
Your dryer will only function well if the filter is clean.  
The filter collects all the fluff which accumulates  
during drying and it must therefore be cleaned at the  
end of each programme, before removing the  
laundry, with a damp cloth.  
The filter cannot be removed.  
P0767  
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.

Positioning  
It is recommended that, for your convenience, the  
machine is positioned close to your washing machine.  
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 a 100 mm diameter flexible hose  
available trough your dealer; ending either  
temporarily at an open window, or permanently at a  
fixed ventilation grille, fitted to an exterior wall or  
window.  
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.).  
To keep vibration and noise to a minimum when the  
dryer is in use, it should be placed on a firm, level  
surface.  
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.  
The feet must never be removed.  
P0046  
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.  
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.  
A
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.

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).  
B
P1056  
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.  
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.  
P0055  
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;  
preferable outside the kitchen.  
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 ensured 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.
