Start and Programmes

GB	Choosing a programme
	1.	Plug the dryer into the electrical socket.
	2.	Sort your laundry according to fabric type (see
		Laundry).
	3.	Open the door and make sure the filter is clean
		and in place (see Maintenance).
	4.	Load the machine and make sure items are not
		in the way of the door seal. Close the door.
	5.	If the On/Off light is not lit: Press the ON/OFF
		button .
	6.	Choose a programme by checking the Programmes
		Guide (see Programmes) as well as the indications
		for each type of fabric (see Laundry).
		- select a programme by rotating the PROGRAMMES
		knob.
	7.	Set a delay time and other options if necessary.
	8.	The START/PAUSE light is flashing green:
		- press the START/PAUSE	button to begin.

The green light stops flashing and the display will show the estimated time to end.

During the drying programme, you can check on

your laundry and take out items that are dry while others continue drying. When you close the door again, press the START/PAUSE button in order to resume drying.

(When the door is opened the START/PAUSE light will flash Amber, after the door is closed and the START/PAUSE button pressed, the START/PAUSE light will stop flashing and show green.)

9.During the last few minutes of Drying Programmes, before the programme is completed, the final COOL TUMBLE phase is entered (fabrics are cooled), this phase should always be allowed to complete.

10.The buzzer will warn you when the programme is complete. Open the door, take the laundry out, clean the filter and replace it (see Maintenance). If the Post Creasecare Option has been selected and you do not remove the laundry immediately, the dryer will tumble occasionally for 10 hours or until you open the door.

11.Unplug the dryer.

Note:

This tumble dryer, in compliance with new energy saving regulations, is fitted with an automatic standby system which is enabled after about 30 minutes if no activity is detected. Press the ON/OFF button briefly and wait for the machine to start up again.

Easy Iron Programme

‘Easy Iron’ is a short 10 minute programme (8 minutes of heat followed by a 2 minute cool tumble period) which fluffs the fibres of clothing that have been left in the same position/location for an extended period of time.

The cycle relaxes the fibres and makes them easier to iron and fold.

!‘Easy Iron’ is not a drying programme and should not be used for wet articles of clothing. For best results:

1.Do not load more than the maximum capacity. These numbers refer to the dry weight:

Fabric	Maximum load
Cotton and Cotton mixtures	2.5kg
Synthetics	2kg
Denim	2kg

2. Unload the dryer immediately after the end of the programme, hang, fold or iron the articles and put them away in the closet. Should this not be possible repeat the programme.

The ‘Easy Iron’ effect varies from one fabric to the next. It works well on traditional fabrics like Cotton or Cotton mix, and less well on acrylic fibres and on materials such as Tencel®.

Wool Programme

●This is a programme for tumble dryer safe garments marked with the symbol .

●It can be used for load sizes up to 1kg (approximately 3 sweaters).

●We recommend that garments are turned inside out before drying.

●This programme will take about 60 minutes, but may take longer depending on the size and density of the load and the spin speed used in your washer.

●Loads dried using this programme are usually ready to wear, but on some heavier garments the edges may be slightly damp. Allow these to dry naturally as over-drying could damage garments.

!Unlike other materials, the mechanism of wool shrinkage is irreversible; i.e. it will not stretch back to original size and shape.

!This programme is not suitable for Acrylic garments.

The wool drying cycle of this tumble dryer has been approved by The Woolmark Company for the drying of Woolmark garments labelled as machine wash and tumble dry, provided that the garments are dried according to instructions on the garment label and those issued by the manufacturer of this tumble dryer (M0615).
