features

1. Super capacity

Now you can dry extra-large loads. Our 9kg, 8kg, and 7kg capacity dryers have large drums,

circulating large volumes of air through your clothes, and drying them faster. Reverse tumble

and anti-wrinkle features give a better wrinkle-free result and makes ironing easier.

2. Visible water tank indicator

A ﬁrst for condenser dryer design, you can now see the level of the condensed water inside

of the tank through the transparent section of the panel. No more coming home only to ﬁnd

incomplete drying. If the tank is close to needing emptied, you can see it and ﬁx it.

3. Sensor drying (fully automatic drying)

By adopting humidity and temperature sensors, the operating time and energy usage is

controlled using digital technology. Consistent levels of drying, much safer care for your

fabrics, and more ﬂexibility for easy ironing settings or getting ready for short term or long

term cupboard storage.

4. Interior lamp (DV9, DV8 Series)

No more sock hunting in the dark; the interior lamp allows easy viewing of the drum, aiding a

lot in making sure you picked up every item every time.

5. Rack drying (DV9 Series Only)

This is a low-temperature drying function developed to allow new ﬂexibility in what you can

dry in this appliance. Delicates can be protected better using the platform to avoid tumbling

action, great for tights, or vulnerable fabrics not usually suitable for a dryer. Even sport shoes,

which are not appropriate for tumbling, can be dried safely in this way.

6. Reversible door for easier door opening at any location

Our dryers will ﬁt into more spaces without a door conﬂict, because the opening direction

of our easy reversible door can be changed with ease. This is great for location options,

but also helps in case you stack the dryer over the washing machine. You can change the

direction left/right opening to whatever suits your home.

7. Diamond drum for fabric care

The Diamond-shaped drum reduces abrasion and oers excellent protection to your laundry.

8. High energy eciency

Heat Pump dryers oer a great way to save energy and still receive the services of a high

performance drying appliance. This machine has been designed and optimised to make the

most ecient use of power we can oer, and this appliance is much more ecient than the

original Condenser Dryer technology.
