Important Safety Instructions
When using electrical appliances, in order to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or
injury to persons, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including
•This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their
safety. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
•The tumble dryer is not to be used if industrial chemicals have been used for cleaning.
•The lint trap has to be cleaned frequently.
•The lint trap must to be allowed to accumulate around the tumble dryer.
•Adequate ventilation has to be provided to avoid the back flow of gases into the room from
appliance burning other fuels, including open fires.
•Do not dry unwashed items in the tumble dryer.
•Items that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, petrol,
kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers should be washed in hot water
with an extra amount of detergent before being dried in the tumble dryer.
•Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps, rubber backed articles and clothes or
pillows fitted with foam rubber pads should not be dried in the tumble dryer.
•Fabric softeners, or similar products, should be used as specified by the fabric softener
instructions.
•The final part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that the
items are left at a temperature that ensures that the items will not be damaged.
•The exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used for exhausting fumes from
appliances burning gas or other fuels.
•The appliance must not be installed behind a lockable door, a sliding door or a door with a hinge
on the opposite to that of the tumble dryer, in such a way that a full opening of the tumble
dryer door is restricted.
•If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or
similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
•Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat sources such as in
a tumble dryer. The items become warm, causing an oxidation reaction in the oil. Oxidation
creates heat. If the heat cannot escape, the items can become hot enough to catch fire. Piling,
stacking or storing oil-affected items can prevent heat from escaping and so create a fire
hazard.
•If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or cooking oil or have been contaminated
by hair care products be placed in a tumble dryer they should first be washed in hot water with
extra detergent - this will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard.
•The maximum mass of dry load is 7 Kg.
•WARNING: Never stop a tumble dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all items
quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.
•WARNING: The appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device, such as a
timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by a utility.
•WARNING: This appliance is only to be serviced by a qualified person. There are no user-
serviceable parts inside.
