Drying Hints

Before loading the laundry
Never tumble dry the following: Particularly delicate items such as net curtains, woolen, silk, fabrics with metal trim, nylon tights, bulky materials such as anoraks, blankets, eiderdowns, sleeping bags, feather quilts and any items containing rubber foam or materials similar to rubber foam.

• Always follow the instructions on garment labels:

  	maybe tumble dried
  	normal drying (high temperature)
  	delicate drying (low temperature)
  	do not tumble dry

• Close pillowcases and covers with fasteners to prevent small laundry items getting tangled inside Close press studs, zips and hooks and tie belts and apron strings. Sort laundry according to type and degree of drying required.
• Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and saves energy.
• Avoid drying dark clothes with light coloured fluffy items such as towels as they could attract the fluff.
• The laundry must be thoroughly spun before tumble drying.
• Easy-care items, too, e. g. shirts, should be briefly pre-spun before drying.
• Knitted textiles(knitted underwear) may shringk a little during drying. Please do not over-dry items of this type. It is advisable to allow for shrinkage when choosing the size of new purchases.
• You can also put starched items into your dryer. However, to achieve the desired starched effect, choose the programme "Iron dry".To remove any starch residues, wipe out the internal drum after drying with a moist cloth and then rub it dry.
• To avoid a static charge when drying is completed, use either a fabric softener when you are washing the laundry or a fabric conditioner specifically for tumble dryers.
• Remove the laundry when the dryer has finished drying.
• If individual items are still damp after drying, set a brief post-drying time, but at least 30 minutes, This will be necessary particularly for multilayered items (e.g. collars, pockets, etc.)

Make sure that no metal objects are left in the laundry (e.g. hair clips, safety pins, pins)
Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners, hooks and poppers. Tie any belts or long tapes. To avoid laundry becoming tangled: Close zips, button up duvet covers and tie loose ties or ribbons(e.g.of aprons). Turn items with double-layered fabrics inside out(e.g.with cottonlined anoraks, the cotton layer should be outermost).These fabrics will then dry better. Remove all objects from pockets such as lighters and matches.

Maximum loads
Recommended loads are indicated in the program charts:
General rules:
Cotton, linen: drum full but not too tightly packed;
Synthetics : drum no more than half full;
Delicate fabrics and woollens: drum no more than quarter full.
Try to load the maximum capacity of the machine as small loads are uneconomical.

Laundry weights
The following weights are indicative:

Drying programmes

If the weight of the laundry is less than 1 kg, it is more efficient to dry to select "Time controlled Drying" programme.

Positioning

Level adjustment

When pushing down the edges of the dryer top plate diagonally, the machine should not move up and down at all.(please check both of two directions) if the machine rocks when pushing the machine top plate diagonally, adjust the feet again.

• Loosen the locknuts
• Adjust the adjustable feet to lower the dryer by turning right and to ascend it by turing left.
• Tighten the locknut after insuring the dryer is level.

Note
The locknuts must be tightened after adjustment.
Any looseness can cause vibration and noise.

The feet must nevet 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.

The hot air emitted by the tumble dryer can reach temperatures of up to 60°C. The appliance must there not be installed in floors which are not resistant to high temperatures.

Fitting the vent hose

To simplify the installation, there is a choice of vent outlets: one at the back, the other in the left hand side. Connect the hose to whichever is the more convenient by pulling the ring nut (A)from the vent outlet at the back, aligning arrows of hose and ring nut, fastening by screwing hose to the direction of arrow and pushing it firmly back into place. The unused vents should now be sealed with the special snap cover(B)provided.

Advice:
If the hose is long and the room temperature low, the moisture might condense 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 small hole (dia.3 mm) in the lowest point of the hose and to place a small container below it. (See picture, point B).

Once connected to the dryer, run the vent hose to the desired outlet point, 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. Note that to avoid condensation problems, it is essential that the dryer be fitted with the flexible hose to carry its auste outside the kitchen. In order to prevent the appliance from overheating, it is important that the steam exhaust is unobstructed. 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.

Electrical connection
Any electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.

THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.

The manufacturer declines any liability should this safety measure not be observed. Before switching on, make sure the electricity supply voltage is the same as that indicated on the appliance's rating plate. Should the plug need to be replaced for any reason, proceed as described below. The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

• Green and Yellow-Earth
• Blue-Neutral
• Brown-Live

The wire coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal marked with the letter earth symbol or coloured green and yellow.

• A cut off plug inserted into a socket is a serious safety (shock) hazard.
• Ensure that the cut off plug is disposed of safely.
• Permanent connection
  In the case of permanent connection it is necessary that you install a double pole switch. The switch must not break the yellow and green earth cable at any point.

Packaging materials

• The materials marked with the symbol are recyclable.
  >PE<=polyethylene
  >PS<=polystyrene
  >PP<=polypropylene
• This means that they can be recycled by disposing of them properly in appropriate collection containers.
• Old machine
  Use authorized disposal sites for your old appliance. Help to keep your country tidy!
• The symbol on the product or on its packaging indicates that this product may not be treated as household waste. Instead it should be taken to the appropriate collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. By ensuring this product is disposed of correctly, you will help prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health, which could otherwise be caused by inappropriate waste handling of this product. For more detailed information about recycling of this product, please contact your local council, your household waste disposal service or the shop where you purchased the product.
• The Symbol mean: caution, risk of fire Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat sources such as in a tumble dryer. The items become warm, causing an oxidation reaction in the oil. Oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot escape, the items can become hot enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing oilaffected items can prevent heat from escaping and so create a fire hazard. If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or cooking oil or have been contaminated by hair care products be placed in a tumble dryer they should first be washed in hot water with extra detergent - this will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard.
