Hoover VTC 680C manual Preparing the Load, Always, Never

Page 6

Before using the tumble dryer for the first time:

Please read this instruction book thoroughly.

Remove all items packed inside drum.

Wipe the inside of the drum and door with a damp cloth to remove any dust which may have settled in transit.

Clothes Preparation

Make sure that the laundry you are going to dry is suitable for drying in a tumble dryer, as shown by the care symbols on each item.

Check that all fastenings are closed and that pockets are empty. Turn the articles inside out. Place clothes loosely in the drum to make sure that they don't get tangled.

Do Not Tumble Dry:

Woollens, silk, delicate fabrics, nylon stockings, delicate embroidery, fabrics with metallic dec- orations, garments with PVC or leather trimmings, training shoes, bulky items such as sleeping bags, etc.

IMPORTANT: Do not dry articles which have been treated with a dry cleaning fluid or rubber clothes (danger of fire or explosion).

During the last 15 minutes the load is always tumbled in cool air.

Energy Saving

Only put into the tumble dryer laundry which has been thoroughly wrung or spin-dried. The drier the laundry the shorter the drying time thus saving electricity.

ALWAYS

Try to dry the maximum weight of laundry, this will save time and electricity.

Check that the filter is clean before every drying cycle.

NEVER

Exceed the maximum weight, this will waste time and electricity.

Put dripping wet items into the tumble dryer, this may damage the appliance.
