Adequate ventilation must be provided in the room where the

tumble dryer is located to prevent gases from appliances

burning other fuels, including open fires, being drawn into the

room during operation of the tumble dryer.

●Exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is

used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or

other fuels.

●Check regularly that the air flowing through the dryer is

not restricted.

●Check the fluff filter after use, and clean, if necessary.

●The inlet and outlets should be kept free from

obstructions. To ensure adequate ventilation the space

between the bottom of the machine and the floor must

not be obstructed. There should be a gap of at least

12mm between the machine and any obstructions.

●Prevent items from falling or collecting behind the dryer

as these may obstruct the air inlet and outlet.

●NEVER install the dryer up against curtains.

Installation of the

Discharge Hose

It is essential to use a venting hose to carry the hot moist air

away from the dryer unless the dryer is situated in a open

space with a good air flow around it. Re-recirculation of the

moist air will prevent the efficient operation of the dryer.

The hose is assembled to the machine as shown opposite.

The hose may be fitted through a wall or through an open

door or window. The hose is 110mm in diameter and will

extend 1.8 meters.

The following guidelines should be followed when installing

the discharge hose.

●Do not use two hoses joined together as the drying

performance will be reduced.

Ventilation

For your safety, this dryer must be correctly installed.

If there is any doubt about installation, call the national GIAS Service

number for advice.

(Eire 018301 666)

40004480.qxd 15/05/2006 19:35 Page 7

●Do not restrict the flow of air through the hose e.g. by kinking it or fitting a smaller diameter

connector to mount to a wall opening.

●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.

40004480.qxd 15/05/2006 19:35 Page 8

Before using the tumble dryer for the first time:

●Please read this instruction book thoroughly.

●Remove all items packed inside drum.

●Wipe the inside of the drum and door with a damp cloth

to remove any dust which may have settled in transit.

Clothes preparation

Make sure that the laundry you are going to dry is suitable for

drying in a tumble dryer, as shown by the care symbols on each

item.

Check that all fastenings are closed and that pockets are

empty. Turn the articles inside out. Place clothes loosely in the

drum to make sure that they don’t get tangled.

Maximum drying weight

●Cottons Max. 7 kg

●Synthetics Max. 3.5 kg

Sort the load as follows:

●By care symbols

These can be found on the collar or inside seam:

Suitable for tumble drying.

Tumble drying at high temperature.

Tumble drying at low temperature only.

Do not tumble dry.

If the item does not have a care label it must be

assumed that it is not suitable for tumble drying.

●By amount and thickness

Whenever the load is bigger than the dryer capacity,

separate clothes according to thickness (e.g. towels from

thin underwear).

●By type of fabric

Cottons/linen: Towels, cotton jersey, bed and table linen.

Synthetics: Blouses, shirts, overalls, etc. made of polyester

or polyamid, as well as for cotton/synthetic mixes.

●By drying level

Sort into: iron dry, cupboard dry, etc. For delicate articles

press the ‘ACRYLIC/SYNTHETIC’ button to select low

drying temperature.

Preparing the load

Do not overload the

drum, large items when

wet can exceed the

maximum admissible

clothes load

(for example: sleeping

bags, duvets).

40004480.qxd 15/05/2006 19:36 Page 9

Do not tumble dry:

Woollens, silk, delicate fabrics, nylon stockings, delicate

embroidery, fabrics with metallic decorations, garments with

PVC or leather trimmings, training shoes, bulky items such as

sleeping bags, etc.

Energy saving

Only put into the tumble dryer laundry which has been

thoroughly wrung or spin-dried. The drier the laundry the

shorter the drying time thus saving electricity.

ALWAYS

●Try to dry the maximum weight of laundry, this will save

time and electricity.

●Check that the filter is clean before every drying cycle.

NEVER

●Exceed the maximum weight, this will waste time and

electricity.

●Put dripping wet items into the tumble dryer, this may

damage the appliance.

Drying advice

During the last 15 minutes the load

is always tumbled in cool air.

IMPORTANT: Do not dry

articles which have

been treated with a dry

cleaning fluid or rubber

clothes (danger of fire

or explosion).
