the lid and slide the water container back
into position. PUSH FIRMLY INTO PLACE.
NNOOTTEE::
If you have the option of drainage near
the dryer it is possible to use the discharge kit to
provide a permanent drain for the water
collected by the dryer. This will remove the need
to empty the water tray. All the information for
assembly of the kit is contained in the kit
envelope.

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 180 minutes.

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
programmes that leave the laundry suitable for
ironing.
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.
