Important Safety Instructions
DRYING GUIDE
Your load, when dry must not exceed the rated capacity.
4kg for the 4kg Machine
5kg for the 5kg Machine
6kg for the 6kg Machine
(See page 6 for a table of average weights of laundry items)
Fabric softeners or similar products should not be used in a
tumble dryer to eliminate the effects of static electricity
unless this practice is specifically recommended by the
manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.

Always check your labels for the drying symbols which the
International Care Labelling Code now uses.
- take out as soon as
the dryer stops to reduce wrinkles.
- not recommended. Pull them to their
original shape, then dry them flat.
- may shrink, by varying
amounts, depending on their quality. Do not use the ‘hot’
setting for these fabrics. Always stretch them out
immediately after drying.
- always check the
manufacturer’s instructions.
- acrylic clothing or
sleepwear use only on the ‘warm’ setting.
- Do not dry any items made from
or containing rubber or plastics, such as aprons, bibs,
babies’ waterproof napkins, curtains, tablecloths,
shower caps, clothes fitted with foam rubber pads,
pillows, galoshes, or rubber coated tennis shoes.
- not recommended. Glass particles left in the
dryer could be picked up by your clothes the next time
you use the dryer, and irritate your skin.
During the drying cycle, if you want to
add or take out clothes, or
check the dryness of the load,
turn down the timer to ‘Airing’ for at least one minute before
opening the door. This is to prevent scorching or possible self
combustion of the fabric.

conditioners of the sheet type that are added to the
clothes in the drum. These products may lead to rapid
blockage of the lint filter and inefficient operation of your
dryer.

LINT BUILD-UP IS A FIRE HAZARD
A clean lint filter reduces drying times, saves energy and
avoids overheating. Overheating may also damage your
clothes.
What happens if I forget to clean the lint filter?
You must clean this lint filter after every load.
To avoid potential fire hazards, we recommend that you
pay a qualified service technician to periodically clean
your dryer. You must do this also when you change your
mounting from upright to inverted, or vice versa.
The lint filter is located
at the front of your
dryer at the bottom
of the door opening.
remove the lint filter open
the door and press the two
pads together. Pull the lint
filter out of the pocket.
Open apart the lint filter and
wipe or peel off the lint.
Ensure the lint filter ‘clicks’ when replacing. It can be inserted
into the pocket either way.
Never operate your dryer without the lint filter.
Do not allow lint to build up around your dryer.
A torn or damaged lint filter must be replaced
immediately.
Overloading can increase lint build-up because the
airflow is reduced.
