Turn the timer clockwise to select the required drying time.The timer
controls the drying time for both heat settings.
Never wind the timer control anti-clockwise.
Turning the timer also starts the dryer, provided the door is closed and the
machine is plugged in. The “Guide To Drying Times” section will tell you
how much time you’ll need for various loads.
The button is ‘OUT’ for LOW heat and ‘IN’ for HIGH heat.
The choice of HIGH HEAT or LOW HEAT depends upon the fabric you wish
to dry (see section, ‘Sorting your Laundry’)
The button is ‘OUT’ for normal drying and ‘IN’ for ‘Fresh Air’ drying.
If selected, outside air will be drawn into the machine and gently blown
through the drying load.
This light glows during any drying programme and goes out at the start of
the ‘Cool Tumble/Fresh Air’ phase.
This light glows during any drying programme when the Fresh Air option
is selected.
About 20 minutes before the programme is completed, the heating
elements will be switched off, and the programme enters the final ‘Cool
Tumble/Fresh Air’ phase. For the dryer to switch into fresh air mode, it
must be pre-selected (button pressed) before the drying cycle begins.
During this phase, the fabric is cooled. You should always allow the dryer
to complete this phase.
To give your laundry a quick refresh simply select Fresh Air (press the
button), then turn the timer to the fresh air symbol .
Provided the door is closed and the power is on the machine will start.
To refresh without Fresh Air simply turn the timer to the cool tumble
symbol .
Each of these programmes will take approximately 20 minutes.
We recommend that the clothes are removed immediately after the
programme has finished to minimise creasing.
NEVER SWITCH THE DRYER ‘OFF’ WITH A HOT LOAD IN THE DRUM.
YOU MUST TERMINATE EVERY PROGRAMME WITH THE COOL TUMBLE
OR FRESH AIR PHASE.
