  • Page 18: Sorting And Loading

    SORTING AND LOADING When preparing your load there are some important things to consider: Sorting We recommend sorting your garments before placing them into the dryer. Sort into loads of similar items, and loads that will likely take similar times to dry. Heavier items (eg towels, and flannelette sheets) are best dried separately from lightweight items (eg synthetics, polyester-cotton sheets and shirts).
  • Page 19 SORTING AND LOADING Before you load Check pockets for items that could damage your clothes or get caught in the dryer. Close zippers, hooks and eyes, and other fastenings (ie fasten the openings of duvet/ doona covers), and remove loose bra wires. These may damage both your dryer and your clothes.
  • Page 20 SORTING AND LOADING Drying times Drying very small loads is inefficient. Try to dry medium to large loads. Heavier items (towels, flannelette sheets) will take longer to dry than light items (synthetics and polyester cotton sheets and shirts). Drying times can be reduced by spinning the wash load at the highest spin speed suitable for the load type in your washing machine.
  • Page 21: Getting Started Quickly

    GETTING STARTED QUICKLY Check if the lint filter is clean and the water tank is empty before every load. Ensure both are replaced correctly before using your dryer. Sort and load items into the dryer drum, ensuring no items are in the way of the door. Close the door (you will hear it click shut).
  • Page 22: Customising Drying Cycle

    CUSTOMISING DRYING CYCLE Delay Start The ‘Delay Start’ option enables you to delay the start of the drying cycle from between 5 minutes and 12 hours. Delayed start options are 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, then hourly up to 12 hours. This can be useful to time your drying to finish when you arrive home from work, or to start when power rates are lower.

    CARING FOR YOUR DRYER When you have finished using your dryer Unplug the machine from the power socket. Wipe around the door to remove any remaining condensation and foreign matter.

Cleaning your dryer Before you start cleaning your dryer, ensure that it is disconnected from the power (ie unplug the machine from the power socket).
