Adequate ventilation must be provided in the room where the
tumble dryer is located to prevent gases from appliances
burning other fuels, including open fires, being drawn into the
room during operation of the tumble dryer.
●Exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is
used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or
other fuels.
●Check regularly that the air flowing through the dryer is
not restricted.
●Check the fluff filter after use, and clean, if necessary.
●The inlet and outlets should be kept free from
obstructions. To ensure adequate ventilation the space
between the bottom of the machine and the floor must
not be obstructed. There should be a gap of at least
12mm between the machine and any obstructions.
●Prevent items from falling or collecting behind the dryer
as these may obstruct the air inlet and outlet.
●NEVER install the dryer up against curtains.
Installation of the
Discharge Hose
It is essential to use a venting hose to carry the hot moist air
away from the dryer unless the dryer is situated in a open
space with a good air flow around it. Re-recirculation of the
moist air will prevent the efficient operation of the dryer.
The hose is assembled to the machine as shown opposite.
The hose may be fitted through a wall or through an open
door or window. The hose is 110mm in diameter and will
extend 1.8 meters.
The following guidelines should be followed when installing
the discharge hose.
●Do not use two hoses joined together as the drying
performance will be reduced.
7
Ventilation
For your safety, this dryer must be correctly installed.
If there is any doubt about installation, call the national GIAS Service
number for advice.
08705 400 600
(Eire 018301 666)
40004495.qxd 05/06/2006 20:07 Page 7

●Do not restrict the flow of air through the hose e.g. by kinking it or fitting a smaller diameter
connector to mount to a wall opening.
●Avoid the hose making U shaped curves as this will restrict the flow of air and increase the chance
that water will collect in the hose.
●Check the hose regularly to remove any build-up of fluff or water that may have collected in it.
The following diagrams give examples of good and bad installations.
8
40004495.qxd 05/06/2006 20:07 Page 8

Before using the tumble dryer for the first time:
●Please read this instruction book thoroughly.
●Remove all items packed inside drum.
●Wipe the inside of the drum and door with a damp cloth
to remove any dust which may have settled in transit.
Clothes preparation
Make sure that the laundry you are going to dry is suitable for
drying in a tumble dryer, as shown by the care symbols on each
item.
Check that all fastenings are closed and that pockets are
empty. Turn the articles inside out. Place clothes loosely in the
drum to make sure that they don’t get tangled.
Maximum drying weight
●Cottons Max. 8 kg
●Synthetics Max. 4 kg
Sort the load as follows:
●By care symbols
These can be found on the collar or inside seam:
Suitable for tumble drying.
Tumble drying at high temperature.
Tumble drying at low temperature only.
Do not tumble dry.
If the item does not have a care label it must be
assumed that it is not suitable for tumble drying.
●By amount and thickness
Whenever the load is bigger than the dryer capacity,
separate clothes according to thickness (e.g. towels from
thin underwear).
●By type of fabric
Cottons/linen: Towels, cotton jersey, bed and table linen.
Synthetics: Blouses, shirts, overalls, etc. made of polyester
or polyamid, as well as for cotton/synthetic mixes.
●By drying level
Sort into: iron dry, cupboard dry, etc. For delicate articles
press the ‘ACRYLICS/SYNTHETICS’ button to select low
drying temperature.
9
Preparing the load
Do not overload the
drum, large items when
wet can exceed the
maximum admissible
clothes load
(for example: sleeping
bags, duvets).
40004495.qxd 05/06/2006 20:07 Page 9

Do not tumble dry:
Woollens, silk, delicate fabrics, nylon stockings, delicate
embroidery, fabrics with metallic decorations, garments with
PVC or leather trimmings, training shoes, bulky items such as
sleeping bags, etc.
Energy saving
Only put into the tumble dryer laundry which has been
thoroughly wrung or spin-dried. The drier the laundry the
shorter the drying time thus saving electricity.
ALWAYS
●Try to dry the maximum weight of laundry, this will save
time and electricity.
●Check that the filter is clean before every drying cycle.
NEVER
●Exceed the maximum weight, this will waste time and
electricity.
●Put dripping wet items into the tumble dryer, this may
damage the appliance.
Drying guide
The following table gives an indication of the drying times.
These times will depend on the load size, the moisture level
and the programme selected. The sensor system will manage
the drying time to ensure that the load is dried as required.
10
Drying advice
During the last 15 minutes the load
is always tumbled in cool air.
IMPORTANT: Do not dry
articles which have
been treated with a dry
cleaning fluid or rubber
clothes (danger of fire
or explosion).

The Hoover Sensor Dry machine gives many options for drying
the laundry to suit all circumstances.
The table below lists the programmes and the function of each
programme.
Note: The sensor may not detect a small load of small articles.
For small loads and separate items or pre-dried fabrics with
low moisture content, use the timed programmes. Set the
programme between 30 and 75 minutes depending on the
load size and dryness required, and select high or low heat
depending upon the fabric type.
If the sensor does not detect the item the dryer will only
operate for 10 minutes before going into cooldown.
If the load is too large or too wet to tumble dry the dryer will
automatically go into cooldown after 185 minutes.

Description
Select the degree of dryness that you require.
This ranges from Bone Dry for bath towels and
bathrobes, through Cupboard Dry for items that
will be put away without ironing, to the
programme that leaves the laundry suitable for
ironing.
A gentle programme specially created to get
woollens softer after air-drying.
This delicate warm air cycle, lasting 12 minutes,
can also be used to get woollens 'refreshed' after
being stored in the wardrobe.
The Fast Iron programme provides a conditioning
and anticrease function. The dryer will heat the
load for 9 minutes followed by a 3 minute cool
down period and is especially good for garments
which may have been left for some time prior to
ironing, in a linen basket for example. Garments
may also become stiffened when dried outside on
a washing line or inside on radiators. The Fast
Iron process relaxes the creases in the fabric
making ironing quicker and easier.
