DETAILED OPERATION:
1. PREPARATION BEFORE DRYER
• Clothes should be washed before use within the dryer.
• Always ensure the same types of clothes are dried together.
• Try to sort your clothes to be dried into load that take a similar time to dry (for example heavier items separate
from light items).
• Make sure any decorations or buttons on your clothing items are safe for high temperatures and well protected.
• It is recommended to turn your clothes inside-out.
• Please ensure that the power cord is in perfect condition before use. Should there be any damage
to the power cord or plug, please immediately isolate the dryer from power and contact us on
1300 11 HELP (4357).
2. CHECK THE FILTER
• Make sure that the filter is always clean and in the correct position.
• The filter must be cleaned regularly.
3. LOAD THE DRYER
• For faster drying results, load the dryer to 1/2 -> 2/3 capacity of the drum. This will allow the clothes and air to
circulate evenly.
• When drying a small load of clothes or even expensive clothes, it’s best to add some towels that won’t lose fibers,
as this will help the wet clothes to dry more evenly.
• To avoid creases or static charges on your clothes, it’s important to ensure you don’t over-dry your items.

PROGRAM FUNCTIONS:
Note: At the completion of a drying program, the clothes dryer will circulate cold air.
This ensures that your clothing is left at a temperature and that your clothes aren’t damaged. The Anti-
Crease function adds a short amount of time at the end of your drying program
to shake the clothes and reduce creasing.
Note: The energy rating was calculated using the Cotton program and Extra dryness level
WARNING! Always follow the care instructions on each of your garments.
6. END OF THE DRYING PROGRAM
• At the completion of the program, an audible tone will sound to remind you to remove the clothes from
the dryer.
7. TAKE OUT THE PLUG
• Just to be safe, always unplug the dryer after each use.
8. CLEAN THE FILTER AND INNER DRUM
• Accumulated dust and fibers will effect the air circulation inside the dryer and will cause longer drying times.
• Always ensure the dryer is switched off and unplugged before cleaning.

Troubleshooting

15
Further problem solving:
Safety Reset
1. These dryers have a safety cut out switch which is activated by temperature.
2. The safety reset button is on the backboard. If your dryer not heating this button must be reset before the dryer
will operate again. You may need to wait 10 minutes for cooling to occur.
3. The most common reason for the dryer to overheat is a blocked filter. Clean the lint filter after each load to
prevent overheating of the dryer.
It will only be necessary to press the safety reset button if the dryer not heating. Allow the dryer at least 10
minutes to cool down before pressing the button .Press the white button in until you feel the reset click. Cleaning
the filter after each load will avoid repetitive operation of the safety cut out switch.
The cut out switch may operate for the following reason:
1. Lint filter is blocked.
2. Exhaust outlets blocked at the back of the dryer.
3. Poor ventilation in the laundry or room-open a window or door
4. Lightweight garment eg. Handkerchief, sucked over the filter.
Safety Reset Button:
Use your finger or a pencil to press the button in until you feel it click.
