	Drying Guide	Timer
Timer control	Turn the timer clockwise to select the required drying time.
	The timer controls the drying time for both heat settings. All you have to
	do is turn the Timer control clockwise, until the required time appears in
	line with the indicator.
	Never wind the timer control anti-clockwise.
	Turning the timer also starts the dryer, provided the door is closed and the
	machine is plugged in. The “Guide To Drying Times” section will tell you
	how much time you’ll need for various loads.
Heat Selection	The button is ‘OUT’ for LOW heat and ‘IN’ for HIGH heat.
	The choice of HIGH HEAT or LOW HEAT depends upon the fabric you wish
	to dry (see section, ‘Sorting your Laundry’)
Fresh Air Selection	The button is ‘OUT’ for normal drying and ‘IN’ for ‘Fresh Air’ drying.
	If selected, outside air will be drawn into the machine and gently blown
	through the drying load.
Drying Light	This light glows during any drying programme and goes out at the start of
	the ‘Cool Tumble/Fresh Air’ phase.
Fresh Air Light	This light glows during any drying programme when the Fresh Air option
	is selected.
The ‘Cool Tumble’/	About 20 minutes before the programme is completed, the heating
‘Fresh Air’ phase	elements will be switched off, and the programme enters either the final
/	‘Cool Tumble’ or ‘Fresh Air’ 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 other to be fully dried).
	We recommend that the clothes are removed immediately after the
	programme has finished to minimise creasing.
	NEVER SWITCH THE DRYER ‘OFF’ WITH A HOT LOAD IN THE DRUM.
	YOU MUST TERMINATE EVERY PROGRAMME WITH THE COOL TUMBLE
		OR FRESH AIR PHASE.
