IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING! When using this appliance always exercise basic safety precautions

including the following:

Dryer use

■ The tumble dryer is intended only for drying textile material washed in water.

■ Undergarments that contain metal reinforcements should not be placed in the dryer.

Damage tothe dryer can result if the metal reinforcements come loose during drying.

If you wish todry these items use a drying rack or place in a garment bag.

■ Check and remove all objects from pockets, eg lighters and matches.

■ Never dry rubber articles, or any plastic items or film, eg plastic lined tablecloths

and baby bibs.

■ Clothes should go through the cool down/airing phase in the final part of the cycle.

This ensures items are left at a temperature where theywill not be damaged. If for

any reason the dryer is stopped before the cycle has finished, dry clothes should be

removed immediately and not left in the dryer. Clothes should be quickly spread out

flat tocool so heat can dissipate,not left bunched up, eg in a clothes basket.

■ This dryer has been designed for domestic use only, not for commercial applications,

such as massage/beauty clinics where there maybe increased lint accumulation or

flammable materials in the atmosphere or load.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS

■ Do not operate this product without the lint filter in place or allow lint to accumulate

in or around the dryer.

■ This dryer is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced

physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,

unless given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the dryer by a person

responsible for their safety.

■ Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the dryer.

■ Unplug the machine from the power supply when it is not in use.

■ Do not swing on or put weight on the door.

■ Your dryer is designed to stop operating in the event of power outage. When

power is resumed, the machine will remain off until the ‘Power’ button is

pressed. To restart the dryer, press ‘Power’, select your drying cycle and

press ‘Start / Pause’.

■ Never attempt to repair the dryer yourself.

■The only user-removable parts of the dryer are the lint filter. No other parts are

designed to be removed by anyone other than a Haier Repairer.

■For problems that cannot be solved from information in this User Guide, turn

off and unplug your dryer and contact a Haier Repairer.

■ When disposing of the dryer, it is recommended that the door is removed to

avoid children getting trapped inside, and that the electrical cable is cut off

close to the dryer.

IMPORTANT!

We do not recommend the use of extension cords or portable electrical outlet

devices for safety reasons.

Lint

■ Accumulated lint in the dryer can become a fire hazard; it also reduces the efficiency

of the dryer by causing longer drying times and increased power consumption.

■ Clean the lint filter before every load.

■ Ensure the area around the dryer is clear of lint.

■ At regular intervals have the interior of the dryer cleaned of any accumulated lint.

This must be done by a Haier trained and supported service technician.

This must be done when the dryer installation is changed from free standing or

inverted, or vice versa.

■ The dryer exhaust ducting should be inspected and cleaned periodically to remove

accumulated lint.

SAFETY AND WARNINGS

Spontaneous combustion

IMPORTANT!

To reduce the risk of fire in a tumble dryer the following should be observed:

■ Items that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable oil or cooking oil are a fire

hazard and should not be placed in a tumble dryer.

■ Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat

sources such as a tumble dryer. The items become warm causing an oxidation

reaction in the oil. This oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot escape the items

can become hot enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing oil-affected items

can prevent heat from escaping creating a fire hazard.

■ If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable oil, cooking oil or have been

contaminated by hair care products be placed in a tumble dryer, they should first

be washed in hot water with extra detergent – this will reduce, but not eliminate

the fire hazard. The cool down cycle of the dryer should be used to reduce the

temperature of these items. They should not be removed from the tumble dryer

and piled or stacked while hot.

■ Items that have previously been cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted

with flammable liquids or solids, eg petrol/gasoline, kerosene, dry cleaning

solvents, vegetable or cooking oil, acetone, denatured alcohol, some brands of

spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers or other flammable or

explosive substances should not be placed in a tumble dryer.

■ Do not dry unwashed items in the tumble dryer.

■ The dryer is not to be used if industrial chemicals have been used for cleaning.

■ Fabric Softeners or similar products should not be used in a tumble dryer to

eliminate the effects of static electricity, unless this practice is specifically

recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener product.

■ Rubber backed articles, foam rubber (latex foam), clothes or pillows fitted with

foam rubber pads, fibreglass, shoes containing rubber, shower caps, baby’s

waterproof napkin covers and waterproof textiles should not be dried in the dryer.

These materials can, when heated, produce fire by spontaneous combustion.

■ The maximum mass of dry textiles depends on your model, The HDV60E1 model is

rated at 6kg. The HDV50E1 model is rated at 5kg. Do not overload your dryer.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Venting

Correct installation is very important for all dryers to ensure maximum efficiency and

safety.

IMPORTANT!

Never run the dryer unless the airflow system is free from

obstruction.

There must be adequate ventilation to avoid the back flow of gases into the room

from appliances burning fuels, including open fires, when operating the dryer.

Exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used for exhausting fumes

from appliances burning gas or other fuels.

External venting

Your dryer has been designed to be vented outside to provide the following

advantages:

■ Ensures optimum efficiency by preventing recirculation of moist air.

■ Eliminates condensation on walls and ceilings.

■ Reduces the chance of lint being sucked into the dryer.

■ Prevents lint and other fine particles being blown into the room.

The external venting system should be:

■ Made from 100mm diameter flexible plastic pipe where the vent system goes through the

wall.

■ Exhausted outside and not into another confined space, eg the roof cavity of a house.

■ Angled to avoid condensation and rain water running back into the dryer.

■ The vent system should be a maximum of two metres with no more than three 90°

bends.

Internal venting

The dryer is set up in the factory for front venting. If front venting is used there must

be adequate ventilation to avoid the build up of moisture in the room, which can

affect the performance of the dryer. Venting must comply with local by-laws and

regulations.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Free standing

The dryer stands on the floor and can easily be moved into position.

1 Move the dryer into the desired position. Do not

lift the dryer by the top panel.

2 Have a minimum clearance on all sides of at

least 20mm.

3 Have a minimum clearance at the rear of 75mm.

The spacers from the accessory wall mounting

kit can be used to set this distance.

4 Install the dryer on a stable and level floor.

IMPORTANT!

Do not put the heavy loads on the top of your dryer,

eg the wet clothes that were taken out of the washing machine.

Inverted wall mounting

Your dryer has been designed to be inverted and mounted on the wall above a

washer or tub. A wall mounting kit must be used. Inverting allows access to the

dryer control panel.

Tools and parts required:

■Drill and 3mm bit

■Phillips head screwdriver

Wall mounting kit includes:

■2 x Plastic spacers

■2 x Wall hanging brackets

■2 x Hanging hooks

■4 x Wood screws

■6 x Screws for hanging hooks

and plastic spacers

Min. 50mm clearance

Min. 880mm

Min. 50mm clearance

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Mounting dryer on wall

1 Determine the position of the dryer on the wall and mark the bracket position. A

minimum of 50mm is needed between the top of the dryer and the ceiling for ease

of installation. If mounting above a washing machine, allow sufficient room to open

the lid of the washer.

2 Fix the wall hanging brackets to the wall securely, ie into the stud. If the studs are

too far apart, fit a timber slat to the studs and then mount the brackets to the slat. If

a slat is used install a second slat behind the spacers to ensure the dryer is

horizontal. The distance between the centre of each bracket is 555mm (A).

3 To install the hooks onto the dryer, remove one screw from each side (B), reuse

these screws with two more (each side) from the kit to fasten the hooks in place.

4 Remove plastic plugs from the back of the dryer and screw the spacers provided in

place (C).

5 With assistance, mount the dryer on the wall brackets.

6 The inverted control panel is supplied in the accessories with your dryer. Fit inverted

control panel over the existing panel.

7 Adjust the display to read correctly on an inverted panel:

■ Press and hold the ‘Key Lock’ and ‘Option’ buttons for three seconds.

■ The dryer will beep to indicate you have made a correct selection, and the display

will change after three seconds.

■ Repeat the same steps to return the panel to the factory setting.
