Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to
heat sources such as in a laundry dryer. The items become warm, causing
an oxidation reaction in the oil. Oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot
escape, the items can become hot enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or
storing oil-affected items can prevent heat from escaping and so create a
fire hazard.
•
If ii is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or cooking oil or have been contaminated
contaminated by hair care products be placed in a laundry dryer they should first be washed
in bot water with extra detergent-this will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard.
•
Do not dry unwashed items in the laundry dryer.
•
Items that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, petrol,
kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers should be washed in hot
water with an extra amount of detergent before being dried in the laundry dryer.
•
Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubber backed
articles and clothes or pillows fitted with foam rubber pads should not be dried in the
laundry dryer.
•
Fabric softeners, or similar products, should be used as specified by the fabric softener
instructions.
•
The final part of a laundry dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that
the items are left at a temperature that ensures that the items will not be damaged.
•
Remove all objects from pockets such as lighters and matches.
WARNING: Never stop a laundry dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all items
are quickly removed and spread out so that heat is dissipate.

Operating your dryer
Electrical Requirements
The unit is required to be plugged into a three
pin socket that is reliably grounded.
Plug the power cord into the socket.
Loading the dryer
It is recommended that items are placed into
the dryer one at a time. This ensures they are
not tangled which results in uneven drying.
When closing the dryer door prior to starting
the unit ensures that items are not jammed in
the door.
Tips before drying
Prior to loading the dryer check that the items
do not have the following symbols anywhere
on them. If they do, do not laundry dry these
items.

•
Dryer heat may permanently set stains,
ensure you check prior to drying that stains
are removed
•
Separate dark and light colored items as
you would do when washing.
•
For best results load the dryer with similar
fabrics. Place small delicate items in a mesh
bag and do not overload the dryer.
•
The maximum mass is 3.0 kilogram's of dry
textile material for the dryer and do not
overload. The laundry dryer is intended
only for drying textile material washed in
water.

Drying times can be affected by many
factors, such as material, bulkiness, how full
the dryer is etc. The above list is only a guide
only.

Select 'High Dry' for items that are particularly bulky or large
quantities. Select 'Low Dry' for delicate items such as silk, nylon,
linen etc.
Drying Program Selector
There are five drying combinations available: Cool, Anti-wrinkle, Warm, Hot and
Air dry.
Air Dry: This function runs
with cool air, primarily to
air items that require
freshening. i.e.: clothes
that have been stored for
a long period of time.
OFF: When the 'Drying
Timer' dial is in the 'OFF'
position no power is
supplied to the unit. As
soon as the dial is turned
clockwise to the desired
program, the dryer will
start.
OFF: When the 'Drying
Timer' dial is in the 'OFF'
position no power is
supplied to the unit. As
soon as the dial is turned
clockwise to the desired
program, the dryer will
start.
Cool: This function is generally
used to cool the items that have
just been dried. This helps to
prevent creasing. Instead of the
motor pushing heat into the drum
of the dryer
it will
generate cool air.
Anti-wrinkle: This is used for items
that are difficult to iron i.e.: cotton
shirts and linen. Using the heat
selector knob, choose 'Low'. Set th
drying timer knob between 30-60
minutes depending on the amount
of items in the dryer. Once the
timer stops (including the cool
program) the items will still contain
moisture, making the ironing
process easier.
Hot: For drying large quantities or bulky
items (More than 0.5 times the rated
capacity). Select the 'High' heat option
and set the timer for more that 120
minutes.
Warm: This function will dry and cool items
and in most cases leave items wrinkle free
(depending on material). Select the 'High' heat
option and set the timer for more that 60-120
minutes.

Operation
Precautions
Delicate items should be placed into a nylon
net bag prior to drying. It is not
recommended to dry under wire bras in this
unit.
Ensure that foreign objects do not find their
way into the dryer. All pockets should be
emptied, buttons, buckles and zips
fastened. This will also help reduce impact
noise when the items hit against the turning
drum.
Do not add items into the dryer whilst it is
in operation.
If drying large items such as a blanket, it is
recommended that from time to time you
open the dryer door, shake the item, place
the item hack in the dryer and close the
door. This will ensure even drying

To ensure you get the most out of the
Anti-wrinkle function do not overload the
dryer and remove the dried items from the
dryer immediately and hang on coat
hangers. Iron the items if desired.
Reduced load
To minimize the risk of fire in a laundry
dryer, the following should be observed:
•
Items that have been spotted or soaked
with vegetable or cooking oil constitute
a fire hazard and should not be placed
in a laundry dryer.
Oil-affected items can ignite
spontaneously, especially when exposed to
heat sources such as in a laundry dryer. The
items become warm, causing an oxidation
reaction in the oil. Oxidation creates heat.
If the heat cannot escape, the items can
become hot enough to catch fire. Pil ing,
stacking or storing
oil-affected items can prevent heat from
escaping and so create a fire hazard.
If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or cooking oil or have been
contaminated by hair care products be placed in a laundry dryer they should first be washed
in hot water with extra detergent this will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard.
The 'cool down' cycle of laundry dryers should be used to reduce the temperature of the
items. They should not be removed from the laundry dryer or piled or slacked while hot.
Items that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in or spotted with petrol/
gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents or other flammable or explosive substances should not be
placed in a laundry dryer.
Highly flammable substances commonly used in domestic environments include acetone,
denatured alcohol, petrol/gasoline, kerosene, spot removers(some brands), turpentine,
waxes and wax removers.
•
Items containing foam rubber (also known as latex foam) or similarly textured rubber,
like materials should not be dried in a laundry dryer on a heat setting.
Foam rubber materials can, when heated, produce fire by spontaneous combustion.
•
Fabric softeners or similar products should not be used in a laundry dryer to eliminate
the effects of static electricity unless this practice is specifically recommended by the
manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.
•
Undergarments that contain metal reinforcements should not be placed in a laundry
dryer.
Damage to the laundry dryer can result if metal reinforcements come loose during drying.
When available a drying rack could be used for such items.
•
Plastic articles such as shower caps or babies' waterproof napkin covers should not
be placed in a laundry dryer.
•
Rubber-backed articles, clothes fitted with foam rubber pads, pillows, galoshes and
rubber-coated tennis shoes should not be placed in a laundry dryer.

INSTALLATION
The appliance must stand vertically on a flat, even surface. It is not recommended to stand
the appliance on a carpeted surface.
Do not restrict the floor clearance with thick carpet or other objects, as this might cause
heat to build up which could interfere with the operation of the appliance or cause a fire.
Before use, all packing materials should be removed.
Do not expose the appliance to damp conditions, open air, or rain.
Do not install the dryer in a room where there is a risk of frost.
Place the tumble dryer in a dry well-ventilated area.
Position the dryer away from heat and direct sunlight.
There should be at least 15cm between the dryer and the walls.
Do not lift the appliance by the door when moving.
It is not recommended to p lace the appliance in a wall recess, fitted cabinet or furniture, as
this will not allow adequate ventilation and could be a potential fire hazard.
The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place, where dirt does not accumulate. Air
must be able to circulate freely around the appliance. Ensure that vents are not covered.
The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place, where dirt does not accumulate. Air
