Avoid the hose making U shaped curves as this will restrict the flow of air and increase the chance that water will collect in the hose. Check the hose regularly to remove any build-up of fluff or water that may have collected in it. The following diagrams give examples of good and bad installations. Preparing the load Before using the tumble dryer for the first time: Please read this instruction book thoroughly. Check that the filter is clean before every drying cycle. NEVER Exceed the maximum weight, this will waste time and electricity.

The table on the next page lists the programmes and the function of each programme. For small loads and separate items or pre-dried fabrics with low moisture content, use the timed programmes. Set the programme between 30 and 75 minutes depending on the load size and dryness required, and select high or low heat depending upon the fabric type. If the sensor does not detect the item the dryer will only operate for 10 minutes before going into cooldown. If the load is too large or too wet to tumble dry the dryer will automatically go into cooldown after approximately 3 hours. 12 40006013Eng. qxd 06/07/2009 13:01 Page 13 Programme Bone Dry Extra Dry Cupboard Dry Iron Dry Wool Finish Description Select the degree of dryness that you require. This ranges from for bath towels and bathrobes, through for items that will be put away without ironing, to the programme that leaves the laundry suitable for ironing. A gentle programme specially created to get woollens softer after air-drying. This delicate warm air cycle, lasting 12 minutes, can also be used to get woollens 'refreshed' after being stored in the wardrobe. The dryer will heat the load for 9 minutes followed by a 3 minute cool down period and is especially good for garments which may have been left for some time prior to ironing, in a linen basket for example. Garments may also become stiffened when dried outside on a washing line or inside on radiators. This programme relaxes the creases in the fabric making ironing quicker and easier.
