Progress ( Drying, Cool Tumble, End) /
Delay (3hr 6hr 9hr) Lights
When the light next to the delay button is on, these lights
flash to indicate the delay time selected. During other
programmes they indicate the progress of the dryer,
each one comes on as the corresponding phase starts.
Time Delay
The start of some programmes (see Start and
Programmes) can be delayed for up to 9 hours in 3hr
steps.
When a delayed start is in progress the light next to the
delay button will be on and the selected delay period
light will flash (after the start button has been pressed).
To set a delayed start, press the Delay Timer button,
and the light next to the button will come on together
with the 3hr delay light. Pressing the button again will
advance the delay setting to 6hr, the 3hr light goes
out and the 6hr light is on. Each time you press the
button the delay setting advances 3 hours, as indicated
by the corresponding light. If the 9hr light is on,
pressing the button again will cancel the delay.
Holding in the On/Off button will also cancel.
Crease Care
The pre-care option is only available if a delayed start has
been selected. It tumbles the clothes occasionally during
the delayed period to help prevent creases developing.
The post-care option occasionally tumbles the clothes
after end of the drying and cool tumble cycles to prevent
creases developing, should you not be available to
remove the load immediately the programme is complete.
The End light is on during this phase. Note: The
Start/Pause light flashes Amber during this phase.
Selecting this option enables both the pre and post care
functions if appropriate.
The Controls High Heat
Press this button and a high heat setting is selected and
the light next to the button comes on. If the light
alongside the button is on then pressing the button
selects a low heat setting and the light goes out.
Not all programmes allow you to change this setting.
Empty Water Light / Container
(If you have plumbed your dryer to a drain this light
can be ignored, as there is no need to empty the water
container).
When this light is on (not flashing) it reminds you to
empty the water container.
If the water container fills during a programme, the
heater turns off and the dryer does a period of Cool
Tumble then the light flashes and the buzzer sounds.
You must empty the water container and restart the
dryer or the clothes will not dry. After re-starting the
dryer, the light will take a few seconds to go out.
To avoid this always empty the water container each
time you use the dryer (see Maintenance).
