Your drying load may contain the same type of fabric but of different
thicknesses. Thinner items will take less time to dry. Some fabrics,
such as those used for jeans are of closer texture than others and
although light when dry will be heavy after washing and spinning.
The quantity of
Single items of clothes or small loads may take disproportionally
clothes to be dried
longer to dry. It is more energy efficient to dry larger loads.
How dry you want
As it takes longer to fully dry clothes than to have them ready for
the clothes

damp, ready for ironing and then continue to dry the remainder until
they are fully dry.

How to remove and clean the fluff filter

To remove the filter

Caring for your Dryer

Your tumble dryer needs very little attention. The following simple
steps will keep it performing well.

After each load
Always clean the filter and turn the drum by hand to check that small
items like handkerchiefs do not get missed.
As necessary

polish only. Regularly check and clean if necessary, the vent hose and
any permanent venting fixture to ensure that there has been no
accumulation

bleach or metal polish to clean any part of the machine. These could
damage the machine.
Lubrication

the user is not necessary and must not be attempted.
We strongly recommend that all appliances are regularly checked for
electrical and mechanical safety.
A very important part of your dryer is the fluff filter at
the front edge of the drum. It's there to trap the parti-
cles of lint and fluff which are
normally blown away
when clothes are dried on the washing-line.
if the filter is allowed to become blocked, the passage
of warm air through the drum will be severely restricted.
This means your clothes will take much longer than
normal to dry and the cost of drying them will be
increased. it may also damage your dryer.
WARNING: DO NOT OPERATE THE DRYER
WITHOUT CLEANING THE FILTER AFTER
EACH DRYING CYCLE.
