Setting the Timer and starting the
Dryer
Consult the Drying Guide (on the
opposite page) for drying times
(times are also shown on the facia
panel) and set the Timer by turning it
clockwise to the required time. This
will start the Dryer provided the door
is closed and the Dryer plugged in.
You can check the dryness of the
load as often as you wish - and, if
you want to, remove some items
before they are fully dry. (This is
particularly useful for a mixed load
where you want to iron some items
but leave others to be fully dried.)
If the door is opened, while the Dryer
is in use, it will stop. The programme
will resume from where it left off as
soon as the door is reclosed without
need to reset the Timer.
Should you wish, of course, the
Timer can be reset at any stage of the
programme.

The ‘Cool Tumble’ phase
As the minutes tick by, the Timer will
move towards the OFF (O) position.
Approximately 10 minutes before the
programme is completed, the heating
elements will be switched off, and the
programme enters the final ‘Cool
Tumble’ phase. During this phase,
the fabric is cooled. You should allow
the Dryer to complete the ‘Cool
Tumble’ phase before removing the
clothes as this minimises creasing
