Step 3
Turn the Program Selector knob to "OFF” When you have finished using the dryer to turn off the power, then switch off at the power point. It is recommended to power off the appliance when not in use.
After every load clean the lint filter to reduce drying time and avoid overheating.
Checking the Load
To check the dryness or add clothes during the cycle, simply open the door. The dryer will beep several times indicating the door is open.. If further drying is required, close the door and then press the Start/Pause button to continue.
For the best drying performance, only add or remove clothes at beginning of the drying cycle.
Next time you turn your dryer on it will be ready to go as it remembers the last program, Temperature and Option setting used. You can change the setting if you wish.
Hints
- Never tumble dry the following: Delicate items such as net curtains, woollen, silk, fabric with metal trim, nylon tights, bulky materials such as anoraks, blankets, eiderdown, sleeping bags, feather quilts and any item containing rubber foam or materials similar to foam rubber.
- Do not place in your dryer undergarments such as bras and corsets that contain metal reinforcements. Your dryer may be damaged if metal parts were to come loose from the garment. Place such items in a bag designed for this purpose.
- Check and empty pockets. Clips, pens, nails and pins can damage both the dryer and your clothes. Other iteras such as matches or cigarette lighters will cause a fire.
- Close all press studs, hooks, eyes and zips that may catch on something else. Tie all belts and apron strings to prevent tangling.
- Drying time will depend on fabric type and construction, load size and wetness. Save time and money and always spin the load as dry as possible in your washing machine.
- Drying time will also be affected by voltage fluctuations, room temperature and humidity. Clothes will dry more slowly on a cool or humid day.
- For best results, sort the load according to fabric types. Such as heavy items which may take longer to dry, eg towels, flannelette sheets etc, than ones which dry quickly, eg poly/cotton shirts and sheets.
- Avoid drying dark clothes with light coloured items such as towels as lint will show on the dark clothes.
Note: Some fabrics will collect lint from other clothes and items. Separate the lint "givers" and the lint "collectors" to minimise this problem.
Clothes that give lint include towels, nappies, chenille. Clothes that collect lint include corduroy, synthetics and permanent press garments.
- If individual items are still damp after drying, set a minute post drying time. This will be necessary particularly for multilayered items (eg collars, pockets, etc).
- Always clean the lint filter-this will reduce drying time and save you money.
- The laundry must be thoroughly spun before tumble drying.
- Easy-care items eg shirts, should be briefly pre-spun before drying (depending on the crease resistance approximately 30 seconds)
- To avoid static charge when drying is completed, use either a fabric softener when you are washing the laundry or a fabric conditioner specifically for tumble dryers.
- Remove the laundry when the dryer has finished drying.
- Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and saves energy.
- Clothes or towels containing sand or grit should be washed first.
- Due to variations in dryer load fabric texture and thickness it is possible that not all items will be dried evenly. It you experience uneven dryness on Cupboard program please use either Extra Dry or Timer Program but be mindful of the type of fabric being dried to avoid overdrying certain types of fabric. Always follow drying instructions attached to the items intended to be dried in a clothes dryer.
To help you, here is a list of the average weights a some common laundry items.
