Operation

1. Open the door and load the drum with
laundry. Ensure that garments do not
hinder closure of the door.
2. Gently close the door pushing it slowly
until you hear the door 'click' shut.
3. Press the 'ON/OFF' (
switch on the dryer. The indicator will
light.
4. Turn the PROGRAM dial to select the
required drying program:
e.g. if you are drying cotton laundry
and would like it suitable for ironing
please select the iron dry option.
The PRE-IRONING setting shown by
the symbol
dial provides a conditioning and anti-
crease function. The dryer will heat the
load for 9 minutes followed by a 3
minute cool down period and is
especially good for garments which
may have been left for some time prior
to ironing, in a linen basket for
example. Garments may also become
stiffened when dried outside on a
washing line or inside on radiators. The
PRE-IRONING process relaxes the
creases in the fabric making ironing
quicker and easier.
5. If drying delicate items on the 'timed'
programs press the 'DELICATES' (
button to reduce the heat level. Press
again on completion, to select high
temperature.

Drying sensor
A sensor will detect when the load is
dry. The drying cycle will then go into
the cooldown period and the
'COOLING' ( ) indicator will light.
After 10 minutes of cooldown the
drum will stop rotating automatically.
Note:
(i) The sensor may not detect a small
load of small articles. For small loads
and separate items or pre-dried fabrics
with low moisture content, utilise the
timed programmes. Set the programme
between 30 and 75 minutes depending
upon the load size and dryness required
and select high or low heat depending
upon the fabric type. If this is not
carried out the dryer will only operate
for 10 minutes before going into
cooldown.
(ii) If the sensor does not operate, for
example when a load is too large or too
wet to tumble dry, the dryer will
automatically go into cooldown after
180 minutes.
The dryer can be set to start up to 9 hours
after the program has been set.
To set the time delay option press and
release the 'START-DELAY' (
until the required delay (shown in hours)
appears on the display and then press the
'START' button. The display will flash.
