Safety Instructions
To remove the lint filter, open the dryer door and simply lift the plastic filter out from its housing. You can click the
lint filter open to allow easy access to remove the lint. Ensure that the plastic filter is clicked closed again before
replacing into your clothes dryer.
Tip! The lint filter can only be inserted into its housing in one way.
Important!
•
Never operate your dryer without the lint filter in its correct position.
•
Do not allow lint to build up around the dryer (on the door itself, inside the drum, around the lint filter itself,
etc).
•
A torn or damaged lint filter must be replaced immediately- cease use until this is replaced.
•
Do not overload your dryer. Overloading can increase lint build-up because the airflow is reduced.
Tip! To avoid potential fire hazards, we recommend that you pay for a qualified appliance technician to inspect
and clean your dryer periodically.
OPERATING YOUR DRYER
Your dryer is rated to 7kg of dry clothing. Loads must not exceed this rated capacity.
Important! Always check your clothing's care label information to ensure they are suitable for use within dryers.
Excessive drying is one of the most damaging things we do to our laundry. International drying symbols (Figure 2
below) help you select a dryer cycle and a temperature.
Figure 2- International drying symbols used on your clothing care labels.
•
If the care label has a circle inside a square, your item can be tumble dried.
•
The more dots on the iron symbol suggests the temperature of heat that can be applied:
•
1 dot = low temperature
•
2 dots = medium temperature
•
3 dots = high temperature
•
If there is a cross over the tumble dry symbol, you should not tumble dry the item. It's recommended for air-
drying only.
Some guidelines for various fabric types:
•
Permanent press and synthetics - take out as soon as the dryer stops to reduce wrinkles.
•
Woollen articles - not recommended. Pull them to their original shape, then dry them flat. Vented dryers can
shrink woollen articles.
•
Woven and loop knit materials - may shrink, by varying amount, depending on their quality. Do not use the
"Extra" Dryness setting for these fabrics, Always stretch them out immediately after drying.
•
Fibre or leather materials - always check the manufacturer's instructions.
•
Baby clothes and night gowns - acrylic clothing or sleepwear use only on the "Light" Dryness setting.
•
Rubber and plastics - Do not dry any items made from or containing rubber or plastics, such as aprons, bibs,
babies' water proof napkins, curtains, tablecloths, shower caps, clothes fitted with foam rubber pads, pillows,
galoshes, or rubber coated tennis shoes.
•
Fibreglass - not recommended, glass particles left in the dryer could be picked up by your clothes the next
time you use the dryer and irritate your skin.
