GETTING STARTED QUICKLY

If you make an invalid selection the dryer will beep to alert you. 

When the cycle finishes, your dryer will beep and then turn off automatically. If the 
‘Wrinkle Free’ option has been selected the dryer will rotate the drum periodically 
blowing cool air into the drum to help minimise wrinkling and creasing of your load.

If you wish to change a cycle once a drying cycle has started, touch the   button then 
select the new cycle. Touch   to restart the dryer with the new cycle. This may affect 
drying performance.

IMPORTANT!

If you wish to stop the dryer before the cycle has finished you MUST remove the 

clothes IMMEDIATELY and spread them out to cool. DO NOT leave the clothes in the 

dryer or bunched up in a clothes basket. Take extreme care as the drum and the load 

items may be extremely hot. 

Failure to follow the advice in this guide may result in damage to your garments and 

your expectations of drying performance may not be met.
