Alarm

Available on all programmes and allows the buzzer to
give a signal at the end of the drying cycle, to remind
you that the clothes are ready to be removed.
Press the button and the light will show that the option
is selected.

Post Creasecare

The clothes are occasionally tumbled after the end of
the drying and cool tumble cycles, to help prevent
creases developing should you not be available to
remove the load immediately the programme is complete.

Empty Water light / container

(If you have plumbed your dryer to a drain this light
can be ignored, as there is no need to empty the
water container).
When this light is on (not flashing) it reminds you to
empty the water container.
If the water container fills during a programme, the
heater turns off and the dryer does a period of Cool
Tumble then the light flashes and the buzzer sounds.
After this it stops and all 3 progress lights and the 3hr
delay light come on and the empty water light flashes.
You must empty the container and restart the dryer or
the clothes will not dry. After restarting the dryer the
light will take a few seconds to go out.
To avoid this, always empty the water container each
time you use the dryer (

see Maintenance

).

Door Opening

Opening the door during a programme will stop the
dryer and have the following effects:

All 3 progress lights come on.

During a delay phase the delay will continue to 
count down. The start button 

must

be pressed to 

resume the delay programme. 
One of the delay lights will flash to show the 
current delay setting.

The start button 

must

be pressed to resume the 

programme. The progress lights will change to 
show the current status.

During the cool tumble or post creasecare phase 
of a drying programme and anytime during an 
Airing or Cool Tumble programme, the programme
will finish. Pressing the start button will re-start a 
new programme at the beginning.

Changing the programmes knob will select a new 
programme, after you press the start button. You 
can use this to select the Cool Tumble programme
to cool the clothes, if you find them dry enough.

Note

If you have a power cut, switch off the power or
remove the plug, press the START button and the
programme will resume.

OPTION buttons / lights

These buttons are used to customise the selected

there will be one beep and the option light next to the
button lights to confirm the selection.

Progress (Drying, Cool Tumble, Post Creasecare) /
Delay (3hr 6hr 9hr 12hr) Lights

When the light next to the delay button is on, these lights
flash to indicate the delay time is selected. During other
programmes they indicate the progress of the dryer,
each one comes on as the corresponding phase starts.

Time Delay

The start of some programmes (

see Start and

Programmes

) can be delayed for up to 12 hours in 3hr

steps. Ensure the water bottle is emptied before setting
a delayed start.
When a delayed start is in progress the light next to the
delay button will be on and the selected delay period
light will flash (after the start button has been pressed).
To set a delayed start, press the Time Delay button,
and the light next to the button will come on together
with the 3hr delay light. Pressing the button again will
advance the delay setting to 6hr, the 3hr light goes
out and the 6hr light is on. Each time you press the
button the delay setting advances 3 hours, as indicated
by the corresponding light. If the 12hr light is on,
pressing the button again will cancel the delay.
You can also cancel the delay by turning the programmes
knob to 0, wait for the buzzer to beep and then turn
back to your selected programme.

Pre Creasecare

When a delayed start has been selected, the clothes
are tumbled occasionally during the delayed period to
help prevent creases developing.

High Heat

When available this button selects high heat. Press this
button and a high heat setting is selected and the light
alongside the button comes on. Timed programmes
have a default of low heat, if the light alongside the
button is on then pressing the button selects a low heat
setting and the light goes out.
