Position of filter
WARNING: NEVER USE SHEET
FAB-
RIC CONDITIONER. IT MAY FALL INTO
THE FILTER AND RESTRICT THE AIR-
FLOW THROUGH THE DRYER
To remove the filter
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 restrict-
ed. 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.
Small items, e.g. babies socks, may fall onto the filter.
These should be removed so that the filter is not
restricted.
WARNING: DO NOT OPERATE THE DRYER
WITHOUT CLEANING THE FILTER AFTER
EACH DRYING CYCLE.
FAILURE TO CLEAN
THE FILTER MAY RESULT IN A FIRE HAZARD.
Grip the centre rib and pull the filter upwards and for-
wards through the door seal (see diagram).
Open the filter, and remove the fluff that has collected
on the inside.
Wash or vacuum clean the filter occasionally.
Don't be alarmed by the amount of fluff you may find on
the filter. It's part of the wearing, washing and drying
process.
WARNING: DO NOT OPERATE THE DRYER
WITHOUT THE FILTER IN POSITION.
It is essential that the filter is replaced correctly. It must
be fitted so that the symbols, shown on the filter above,
face towards the front of the dryer. Ensure the filter is
fully located into the tumble dryer duct.
Guide to Drying Times
Please note that the Drying Times stated below and on appliance
control panel are a GUIDE only and drying times are affected by:
The amount of
Items such as towelling retain a lot of water after spinning, also the
water remaining in
suggested wash programme for small items such as T-Shirts may
the clothes after
sometimes incorporate a low spin speed which has the same effect.
spinning
The type of fabric
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
ironing, you may wish to remove some clothes when they are slightly
damp, ready for ironing and then continue to dry the remainder until
they are fully dry.
The heat setting
The label on the garment should tell you the correct heat setting to
you have selected
select. See 'Wash Care Labels'.
The temperature
If the room in which the dryer is situated is cold, your clothes will take
of the room
longer to dry than if the room is warm.

and we do advise that you remove these items several times, shake
them and return them to the dryer. THERE ARE HOWEVER SOME
ITEMS THAT WE DO NOT ADVISE YOU TO DRY. SEE 'ITEMS NOT
SUITABLE FOR TUMBLE DRYING'

All fabrics contain a little natural moisture even when 'dry' and this
Be careful not to
overdry
natural moisture should not be lost if the clothes are to remain soft
and fluffy. Clothes that are dried for too long tend to wrinkle and will
need more ironing than usual giving you extra work that the dryer
was designed to remove.
