IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read and follow all of the instructions even if you feel you are familiar with the
product, and nd a place to keep this manual handy for future reference.
General Safety
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed:
• Do not insert a damaged plug or a plug with a damaged cable into a socket.
• If the plug or the lead is damaged, they must be replaced by a qualied service
engineer/ electrician.
• Do not plug into the power supply or touch the appliance while barefoot or with
wet hands or feet.
• Do not remove the plug from the socket by pulling the cable. Always remove it by
pulling the plug itself.
• In case of failure, unplug the machine. Do not attempt to repair it; consult the
trouble shooting guide for possible solutions. If you still have a problem, call
customer services on 0844 848 5861.
• Do not plug it in multiple socket or extension lead.
• After using the dryer, turn it o and unplug it. Keep the door closed to make sure
that children do not use it as a toy.
• This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above if they have
been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance in a safe
way and understand the hazards involved.
• This appliance can be used by persons with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and
understand the hazards involved.
• Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children
• Keep the appliance and its cord out of reach of children.
• Children shall not play with the appliance.
• The appliance must be installed correctly and have proper ventilation.
• Never direct the vent hose towards the air inlet vents on the back of the dryer.
• Never use the dryer on carpeting where the pile height would prevent air from
entering the dryer from the base.
• Check to see if the dryer is empty before loading it and do not overload it.
• The back of the dryer could become very hot: do not touch it while the appliance is
in use.
• Do not use the dryer unless the lter is securely in place.
• Do not load items that are dripping wet.
• Carefully check all instructions on clothing labels.
• Do not tumble dry large, very bulky items.
• Do not tumble dry acrylic bres at high temperatures.
• Do not allow lint to collect around the dryer and clean the lter after each use.
• Never climb on top of the dryer. It could result in damage.
• Always follow electrical standards and requirements.

To minimise the risk of re in your tumble dryer, the following should be
observed:
• Tumble dry items only if they have been washed with detergent and water, rinsed
and been through the spin cycle. It is a re hazard to dry items that HAVE NOT
been washed with water.
• Do not dry garments that have been treated with chemical products.
• Do not tumble dry items that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable
or cooking oils, this constitutes a re hazard. Oil-aected items can ignite
spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat sources such as a tumble dryer.
The items become warm, causing an oxidisation reaction with the oil, Oxidisation
creates heat. If the heat cannot escape, items can become hot enough to catch
re. Piling, stacking or storing oil-eected items can prevent heat from escaping
and so create a re hazard. If it is unavoidable that fabrics containing vegetable
or cooking oil or those that have been contaminated with hair care products be
placed in a tumble dryer they should rst be washed with extra detergent - this will
reduce, but not eliminate the hazard. The cool tumble phase should be used to
reduce the temperature of the items. They should not be removed from the dryer
and piled or stacked while hot.
• Do not tumble dry items that have previously been cleaned in or washed in, soaked
in or soiled with petrol/gasoline, dry cleaning solvents or other ammable or
explosive substances. Highly ammable substances commonly used in domestic
environments including cooking oil, acetone, denatured alcohol, kerosene, spot
removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers. Ensure these items have been
washed in hot water with an extra amount of detergent before being dried in the
tumble dryer.
• Do not tumble dry items containing foam rubber (also known as latex foam), or
similarly textured rubber like materials. Foam rubber materials can, when heated,
produce re by spontaneous combustion.
• Fabric softener or similar products should not be used in a tumble dryer to
eliminate the eects of static electricity unless the practice is specically
recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener product.
• Do not tumble dry undergarments that contain metal reinforcements, e.g. Bras
with metal reinforcing wires. Damage to the tumble dryer can result if the metal
reinforcements come loose during drying.
• Do not tumble dry rubber, plastic articles such as shower caps or babies
waterproof covers, polythene or paper.
• Do not tumble dry rubber backed articles, clothes tted with foam rubber pads,
pillows, galoshes and rubber coated tennis shoes.
• Remove all objects from pockets, especially lighters.
• Complete each programme with the relative cool drying phase.
WARNING: Never stop the dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all
items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.

Where to Install the Appliance
• Install the appliance away from heat sources such as radiators, ranges, hobs and stoves.
• Leave a minimum gap of 10cm above and to the rear of the dryer to ensure sucient air
circulation.
• Do not install the appliance in a damp environment.
• Adequate ventilation must be available to ensure that there is no back ow of gasses into the
room from appliances burning other fuels including open res. It is advisable to leave a window
open in the room when drying.
• Take care not to obstruct the air inlet which is located at the lower rear of the appliance on the
left hand side as viewed from the rear.
INSTALLATION
Levelling the Appliance
The appliance must be level. This can easily be achieved by means of the four fully adjustable feet.
Level from side to side rst, then from front to back.
Electrical Connection
Please check the data plate to ensure that the supply voltage is correct for this appliance.
Fitting a Dierent Plug
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance
may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the
terminals on your plug, proceed as follows:
1. Connect the green-yellow or green (earth) wire to the terminal
in the plug marked ‘E’ or with the symbol of f or coloured
green and yellow or green.
2. Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the terminal in the plug
marked ‘N’ or coloured black.
3. Connect the brown (live) wire to the terminal in the plug
marked ‘L’ or coloured red.
With the alternative plugs a 13A fuse must be tted either in the
plug or adaptor or in the main fuse box. If in doubt contact a
qualied electrician.
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
Connect the appliance directly to the supply using the 13amp plug provided. Do not plug
into an adaptor or extension lead.
9
Flexible Vent Hose
• Connect the exible vent hose to the air outlet. This is located at the lower rear on the right hand
side of the appliance as viewed from the rear.
• To optimize the performance of this appliance, always use the vent hose supplied.
• The telescopic exible hose may be extended as necessary to reach the outside.
• It is recommended that the exible vent hose is permanently connected to an outlet near the
appliance where possible. Permanent vent systems for walls, windows and doors are available
from your retailer. However, the tumble dryer will operate perfectly well if the exible vent hose is
passed through a partially opened window.
• The exible vent hose must never be directed at the air inlet, which is located at the lower rear of
the appliance on the opposite side to the outlet.
• The end of the exible vent hose must always face slightly downwards to prevent condensation
forming.
• Keep the length of the exible hose as short as possible to prevent impedance of the air ow.
• Check the exible vent hose frequently to ensure that it is clear of debris and u.
• Do not crush the exible vent hose or allow it to be restricted by the installation as this will
reduce the drying eciency and may cause the dryer to malfunction or repeatedly activate the
reset button.
