When the light next to the delay button is on, these lights flash to indicate the delay time selected. During other programmes they indicate the progress of the dryer, each one comes on as the corresponding phase starts.

Delay Timer

The start of some programmes (see Start and Programmes) can be delayed for up to 9 hours in 3hr steps. Ensure the water bottle is emptied before setting a delayed start.

When a delayed start is in progress the light next to the delay button will be on and the selected delay period light will flash (after the start button has been pressed).

Holding in the On/Off button will also cancel.

Pre Care

When a delayed start and this option have been selected the clothes are tumbled occasionally during the delayed period to help prevent creases developing.

High Heat

Available for Timed Drying Programmes. Press this button and a high heat setting is selected and the light next to the button comes on. Timed programmes have a default of low heat, if the light alongside the button is on then pressing the button selects a low heat setting and the light goes out.

Post Care

When selected, the clothes are occasionally tumbled after the end of the drying and cool tumble cycles, to help prevent creases developing should you not be available to remove the load immediately the programme is complete. The End light is on during this phase.

Empty Water Light / Container

(If you have plumbed your dryer to a drain this light can be ignored, as there is no need to empty the water container).

When this light is on (not flashing) it reminds you to empty the water container.

If the water container fills during a programme, the heater turns off and the dryer does a period of Cool Tumble then the light flashes and the buzzer sounds. You must empty the water container and restart the dryer or the clothes will not dry. After re-starting the dryer, the light will take a few seconds to go out.

To avoid this always empty the water container each time you use the dryer (see Maintenance).

●The Start/Pause button must be pressed to resume the programme. The progress lights will change to show the current status and the Start/Pause light will stop flashing and turn green.

●During the Post Care phase of a drying programme, the programme will finish. Pressing the Start/Pause button will re-start a new programme at the beginning.

●Changing the programmes knob will select a new programme and the Start/Pause light will flash

green. You can use this to select the Cool Tumble programme to cool the clothes, if you find them dry enough. Press the Start/Pause button to begin a new programme.
