This is a short programme of approximately 10 minutes to condition previously dried clothes. See section ‘Easy Iron Programme’.

It consists of a period of heating followed by a short cool tumble period (as detailed below).

Select HIGH heat for this programme.

It should not be used on damp loads, as it is NOT a drying programme.

To set the required time, all you have to do is turn the Timer Control clockwise until the required time appears in line with the indicator.

Never turn the Timer Control anti-clockwise.

The chart in the section ‘Guide to Drying Times’ will tell you how much time you will need for various loads.

This programme is particularly useful in cases where a damp load is required for ironing or LOW heat drying is required and also for small loads.

About 10 minutes before the programme is completed, the heating elements are switched off, and the programme enters the final ‘Cool Tumble’ phase.

During this phase, the fabric is cooled. You should always allow the dryer to complete this phase.

By opening the door, the dryer will stop and you can check the dryness of the load as often as you wish and if you want to remove (or add) some items before they are fully dry. (This is particularly useful for a mixed load where you want to Iron some items, but others to be fully dried).

After this cycle, the Audio (Buzzer) will sound (if selected) to remind you that the clothes are ready to take out. To cancel turn the Timer to 0, or push the option button. We recommend that the clothes are removed immediately this programme ends to minimise creasing.

This light will glow when Auto drying is selected. It will stop glowing when the load is dry and the programme advances to the cool tumble phase.

This light glows during any drying programme and goes out at the start of the cool tumble phase.

The button is OUT for ‘LOW’ heat and IN for ‘HIGH’ heat.

The choice of FULL HEAT or LOW HEAT depends upon the fabric you wish to dry (see section ‘Sorting your Laundry’).

Your dryer is fitted with an alarm to remind you when the clothes are ready to take out. The alarm is selected with the button IN and cancelled with the button OUT.

NEVER SWITCH THE DRYER ‘OFF’ WITH A HOT LOAD IN THE

DRUM.

YOU MUST TERMINATE EVERY PROGRAMME WITH THE COOL

TUMBLE PHASE.

The TDL54 features a variety of drying programs tailored to specific fabric types, including cotton, synthetic, and delicates, ensuring optimal care for your garments. One of its standout features is the Sensor Dry technology, which automatically stops the drying cycle once the desired dryness level is reached. This not only prevents over-drying but also saves energy, making it an environmentally friendly choice.

Next, the Hotpoint TVM55 presents a slightly different approach as a vented tumble dryer. With an 8 kg capacity as well, it is designed with user convenience in mind. The TVM55 incorporates a unique Anti-Tangle feature that helps to reduce tangling of clothes during the drying process, resulting in wrinkle-free laundry.

Energy efficiency is another hallmark of the TVM55, making it an economical option for families looking to manage utility bills without compromising on performance.

Finally, the Hotpoint TDL52 model stands out as a compact vented tumble dryer, perfect for smaller spaces such as apartments or utility rooms. With its 6 kg capacity, it is designed for users with lighter laundry loads. However, it does not compromise on functionality; the TDL52 offers multiple drying programs to accommodate different fabric types. Additionally, it features a reverse tumble action that helps to keep clothes separated during drying, further preventing creases and ensuring a more effective drying cycle.
