Instructions
Preparing the load
• Prior to loading the dryer, check that none of the items have the following symbols on
them, which indicate that items are UNSUITABLE for clothes drying (Fig. 7).
CAUTION!
Make sure you read all safety precautions in this manual and are aware of the items
(listed on page 7) that may NOT be placed in a clothes dryer as they cause a hazard.
Fig. 7
• The clothes dryer is intended only for drying textile material that has been washed
in water and well spin-dried. Dripping water may cause an electrical hazard. Thor-
oughly spin the laundry in your washing machine on a high spin speed, which can
reduce the drying time and save energy consumption.
• As the dryer heat may permanently set stains, ensure you check prior to drying.
• For uniform drying results, sort the laundry according to fabric type and drying
program. Separate dark and light coloured items as you would do when washing.
• Ensure that the items to be dried do not have combustible materials or foreign
objects (such as lighters, hair pins, coins) inside pockets.
• Turn items with zippers inside out, close zippers, hooks and eyelets, fasten
buckles and tie fabric belts. This will also help reduce impact noise when the items
hit against the turning drum.
Loading the dryer
• Make sure the lint filter is clean and properly in place. It must be cleaned regularly.
• To avoid items getting tangled up in the dryer, which results in uneven drying, we
recommend placing items into the dryer one at a time.
• Place small, delicate items in a mesh bag, but do not add too many to one bag. (It
is not recommended to dry underwire bras in a clothes dryer.)
• When drying delicate items or a very small load (<1.5kg), add a few lint-free cloths
to aid even drying.
• When drying large items such as blankets or sheets, include a few small items to help
balance the load. You may also need to open the dryer door and shake out the item
from time to time, then place it back in the drum to ensure even drying.
• When closing the dryer door prior to starting the unit, ensure that items are not
jammed in the door.
• To avoid creasing or static cling, do not over-dry your clothes.
