This is a short programme of approximately 10 minutes to condition previously
dried clothes. See section ‘Easy Iron Programme’.
It consists of a period of heating followed by a short cool tumble period (as
detailed below).
Select HIGH heat for this programme.
It should not be used on damp loads, as it is NOT a drying programme.
To set the required time, all you have to do is turn the Timer Control clockwise
until the required time appears in line with the indicator.
Never turn the Timer Control anti-clockwise.
The chart in the section ‘Guide to Drying Times’ will tell you how much time you
will need for various loads.
This programme is particularly useful in cases where a damp load is required
for ironing or LOW heat drying is required and also for small loads.
About 10 minutes before the programme is completed, the heating elements
are switched off, and the programme enters the final ‘Cool Tumble’ phase.
During this phase, the fabric is cooled. You should always allow the dryer to
complete this phase.
By opening the door, the dryer will stop and you can check the dryness of the
load as often as you wish and if you want to remove (or add) some items before
they are fully dry. (This is particularly useful for a mixed load where you want
to Iron some items, but others to be fully dried).
After this cycle, the Audio (Buzzer) will sound (if selected) to remind you that
the clothes are ready to take out. To cancel turn the Timer to 0, or push the
option button. We recommend that the clothes are removed immediately this
programme ends to minimise creasing.
This light will glow when Auto drying is selected. It will stop glowing when the
load is dry and the programme advances to the cool tumble phase.
This light glows during any drying programme and goes out at the start of the
cool tumble phase.
The button is OUT for ‘LOW’ heat and IN for ‘HIGH’ heat.
The choice of HIGH or LOW heat depends upon the fabric you wish to dry (see
section ‘Sorting your Laundry’).
Your dryer is fitted with an alarm to remind you when the clothes are ready to
take out. The alarm is selected with the button IN and cancelled with the
button OUT.
NEVER SWITCH THE DRYER ‘OFF’ WITH A HOT LOAD IN THE
DRUM. YOU MUST TERMINATE EVERY PROGRAMME WITH THE
COOL TUMBLE PHASE.
