Always follow basic safety precautions and accident prevention measures when using an electrical appliance, including the following:
Electrical safety and cord handling
- Voltage: Make sure your outlet voltage and circuit frequency correspond to the voltage indicated on the appliance rating label and your outlet socket is properly earthed. If this is not the case, do not use the dryer.
- Separate circuit: We strongly recommend you connect the appliance to a separate circuit serving only this appliance. This provides the best performance and prevents overloading the house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheating.
- Electrical hazard: Do not insert any objects into the appliance.
- No extension cord: Do not use this appliance with a power adaptor or extension cord.
CAUTION: If such a device must be used, the cord or outlet device must be positioned so that it is not subject to splashing or liquid ingress.
- Protect the power cord. Do not kink or damage the power cord. Position the cord out of the way so no one steps on or places anything on the cord or against it. Do not run the cord under floor coverings. Arrange the cord away from traffic areas where it will not become a tripping hazard.
- Disconnect: Unplug the clothes dryer from the power supply after use, before cleaning, servicing or moving the appliance. To disconnect, turn the appliance off, switch off the power outlet and remove the plug from the power outlet. Grip the plug when disconnecting; do not pull on the cord. After disconnection, wait at least two minutes before turning the appliance back on again.
- RCD: Unless your home is already fitted with a residual current device (safety switch), we recommend installing an RCD with a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30mA to provide additional safety protection when using electrical appliances. See your electrician for professional advice.
Usage conditions and restrictions
- Domestic use only: This appliance is intended for indoor household use only. It is not intended for industrial, commerical or trade use. Do not use it outdoors. Do not use it for anything other than its intended purpose (drying domestic quantities of washing), and only use it as described in this manual.
Installation requirements:
- Do not install the appliance in a tight fitting cabinet.
- Do not install it near heat sources such as radiators, heaters, air ducts or direct sunlight. If the clothes dryer is not wall-mounted, place it on a flat, firm, dry and stable floor in a well ventilated area. Use the adjustable legs to assist in levelling the dryer if required. Do not place it on any soft material such as foam or plastic.
- Ventilation: Do not block any ventilation openings. Ensure that vents are not covered by newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, etc.
- Before use: Make sure to remove transport packaging at the rear of the dryer.
- Suitability for tumble drying: Only load suitable items into the clothes dryer. See the box on the opposite page for which items and materials are unsuitable for the clothes dryer and may present a fire risk.
- Preparation: Make sure all pockets of clothing to be dried are empty. Hard, sharp objects such as coins, safety pins, bra wires, nails, screws, lighters or matches must be removed as they can cause extensive damage to the dryer.
- No dripping water: All clothes must be thoroughly spin-dried before placing them in the dryer. Dripping water may cause an electrical hazard.
- No open flames: Do not place open flame sources such as candles on the dryer.
- Hot surface: The door window may be hot after a long drying cycle. Always ensure children are kept away from the machine.
- Cool down: The final part of a clothes dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that the items are left at a temperature that will not damage them.
- Subsequent cycles: After turning off the power supply to the clothes dryer, wait at least two minutes before turning it back on again.
- Repair: Except for the filters that require cleaning, this appliance contains no user- serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt to open, disassemble or repair it yourself; only have it serviced by qualified personnel, call the after sales support line.

 |
Adequate ventilation has to be provided to avoid the backflow of gases into the room from appliances burning other fuels, including open fires. |
CAUTION!
The items listed below are UNSUITABLE for clothes drying.
They can cause fire in the clothes dryer or extensive damage.
DO NOT place the following items into the clothes dryer.
- Items containing foam rubber (also known as latex foam) or similarly textured rubber-like materials — when heated, these materials can spontaneously combust and cause a fire.
- Items that have been spotted or soaked with cooking oil, or with highly flammable substances — these substances constitute a fire hazard. Highly flammable substances used in domestic environments include acetone, alcohol, petrol, kerosene, some stain removers, dry-cleaning solvents, turpentine, waxes, wax removers and some hair care products. (This also includes items that have previously been cleaned or spotted with dry-cleaning solvents or other flammable or explosive substances.)
- Washing these items thoroughly beforehand in hot water with an extra amount of detergent will reduce, but not necessarily eliminate the hazard. The ‘cool down’ cycle of a clothes dryer should be used to reduce the temperature of the items. They should not be removed from the clothes dryer or piled or stacked while hot.
- Undergarments that contain metal reinforcements (such as underwire bras) — these parts can come loose during drying and damage the clothes dryer.
- Plastic articles such as shower caps or waterproof baby bibs.
- Rubber-backed articles, clothes fitted with foam rubber pads, pillows, galoshes and rubber coated tennis shoes.
- Fabric softeners or similar products, unless they are specifically recommended by the product manufacturer for use in a clothes dryer to eliminate the effects of static electricity.
CAUTION: HOT SURFACE!
