User manual

– This tumble dryer is intended for NORMAL DOMESTIC
USE ONLY.
– Please note it is not recommended that the dryer be
placed directly next to ovens or cookers, as the
performance of the dryer may be affected.
–Any electrical work required to install the appliance
should be carried out by a qualified person.
–It is important to clean the lint filter after each drying cycle
and the condenser every three or four months or the
restrictions to airflow will extend drying times and could
cause the safety cut-out to trip.
– Do not stack the tumble dryer on top of any other
appliances without the correct stacking kit.
– Under no circumstances should anything other than the
recommended articles be placed in the tumble dryer.
– The tumble dryer should be serviced by an appointed

–We recommend that the appliance is unplugged each
time after use. It should always be disconnected from the
electricity supply if it is to be left unattended for long
periods (i.e. weekends, holidays etc.)
– The rear of the dryer gets quite hot during use. Position
the dryer so that the back is not accessible while in
operation, but the sides have a space available to allow
air flow.
– It is important to clean fluff from the window of the dryer
and around the door seal after each drying cycle. Failure
to do so could result in water leaking.
– DO NOT use a two-way adaptor, or extension lead. The
dryer must be connected to its own socket.

dryer.

damaged in any way. Under no circumstances should you

THE CONDENSER
The condenser and ducting should be cleaned 3 or 4 times a year
or more frequently if the dryer is in constant use. See “CLEANING
THE CONDENSER” opposite.
NOTE: The condenser will discolour through use.
REMOVING THE
CONDENSER
– Slide the condenser grille
catch to the left.
– Firmly pull the condenser
out.
RE-INSTALLING
THE CONDENSER
– Carefully push the
condenser back into the
machine, until it is pushed
fully home and a “click” is
heard.
– Ensure all lint and fluff is
removed from around the
grille seal before closing or
water may leak.
– IMPORTANT: The dryer
may leak if the condenser
is not correctly re-installed.
CLEANING THE CONDENSER
CAUTION: For maximum efficiency, the plates are made from
very thin aluminium and are easily damaged. Do not try to poke
anything between the plates or use a hard object or tool for
cleaning. At all times, handle the condenser carefully and avoid
crushing the plates.
– Remove the condenser (see opposite).
– Flush the fluff from between the plates under running water
and carefully shake off excess water.
– Whilst the condenser is
removed, clean as much fluff
as possible from inside the
ducting by reaching a hand
into the machine. In particular,
keep the passage from the fan
clear (on the right hand side of
the condenser duct).
– After cleaning, re-install the condenser (see opposite).
