Unpacking
Warning !
To keep vibration and noise to a minimum when the
dryer is in use, it should be placed on a firm, level surface.
Once in its permanent operating position, check that the
dryer is absolutely level with the aid of a spirit level. If it is
not, raise or lower the feet until it is.
Slide out the polythene bag containing the
polystyrene block before using the appliance. Pull
off adhesive strips from inside machine on top of drum.
Keep all packaging away from children.
The feet must never be removed.
Do not restrict the floor clearance through deeppile carpets, strips of wood or similar. This might
cause heat build-up which would interfere with the
operation of the appliance.
Important
The hot air emitted by the tumble dryer can reach
temperatures of up to 60°C. The appliance must be sited
in a well ventilated room but not be installed on floors
which are not resistant to high temperatures.
P1106
Should the appliance be moved, it must
be transported vertically.
When operating the tumble dryer, the room temperature
must not be lower than +5°C and higher than +35°C, as it
may affect the performance of the appliance.
Remove the rack
Stacking kit (optional accessory)
The drying rack offers the possibility of drying washable woollen
fabrics and sports shoes. The drying rack does not turn with the
tumble dryer drum. This enables the drying of woollen garments
or sports shoes. When wet, the wool must be moved as little as
possible because it tends to become matted. Sports shoes could
damage the drum due to their weight.
1. Lift the rack out of the polystyrene protection used for
transport and remove it from the tumble dryer drum.
2. Remove the pieces of polystyrene from the drum one
at a time.
3. Remove the elastic band from the rack and the rack
container.
It should be possible to stack your new dryer on top of a
front loading washing machine with cover’s depth
between 48 and 60 cm.
Read carefully the instructions supplied with the stacking
kit.
Please contact your local John Lewis branch for further
advice.
P1148
Door reversal
Positioning
To make it easier to load or unload the laundry the door
can be reversed.
This operation must be carried out by qualified
personnel.
Please contact The telephone number given under
Repairs - After Sales Service (page 21).
It is recommended that, for your convenience, the
machine is positioned close to your washing machine.
The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place,
where dirt does not build up.
Air must be able to circulate freely all around the
appliance. It is important to ensure the air intake grills on
the back of the dryer are not obstructed with any
materials (e.g. paper, rags etc.). Obstructing the grills
could be dangerous or at least seriously impair the
efficiency of the tumble dryer.

Hints & Tips on Drying
Before placing articles of laundry in your tumble
dryer, check the care labels to ensure they are
recommended for tumble drying.
• Always load well spun laundry. The higher the spin
speed the lower the electricity consumption and the
shorter the drying time.
Care Labels you may find on your laundry
• DO NOT load dripping wet laundry into the dryer. Roll
the article in a towel or spin to remove excess water.
• Close poppers and zips and fasten any buttons.
may be tumble dried
• Sort the laundry. Separate synthetics from
cotton/linens, and dry separately.
normal drying (high temperature, e.g. cottons)
• Remove the laundry immediately after the programme
has finished.
delicate drying (low temperature, e.g. synthetics)
• Use a fabric conditioning sheet to reduce static. We
recommend the sheet is pinned to an article of laundry
(using a safety pin).
do not tumble dry
• Mix the load i.e. large and small articles.
• When drying large items such as sheets, we
recommend you periodically stop the dryer to
redistribute the load.
Do not overload the appliance.
DO NOT use the tumble dryer to dry the
following:

Maintenance and Cleaning
After a while, a whitish coating due to detergent residue
on laundry forms on the filters. When this occurs, clean
the filters with warm water using a brush. Remove the
filter in the door opening as per picture (it can be
positioned with the tooth facing to the left or to the
right).
You must disconnect the appliance from the
electricity supply, before you can carry out any
cleaning or maintenance work.
External cleaning
Use only soap and water and then dry thoroughly.
Important: do not use methylated spirit, diluents or
similar products.

Do not use the appliance without filters.
Cleaning the condenser unit
Clean the air condenser when the CONDENSER light
illuminates.
The condenser is situated at the lower part of the cabinet
behind a small door. To open the door, push the catch as
per picture.
P1150
Cleaning the filters
Your dryer will only function well if the filters are clean.
The filters collect all the fluff which accumulates during
drying and they must therefore be cleaned at the end of
each programme, before removing the laundry, with a
damp cloth. The FILTER light reminds you to carry out
this operation.

To pull out the condenser, first turn the two red stops
downwards as shown below and then remove the
condenser unit holding it with the handle.

P1151
The filter in the inner door must be removed for cleaning.
Do not be alarmed by the amount of fluff. It is not due to
excessive wear caused by the dryer. All fabric looses fluff
when line-drying but it goes un-noticed in the air. In a
tumble dryer it simply collects in the filter.

Clean it with a brush and rinse it under the shower if
necessary.
The reservoir must be re-inserted correctly.
If this is not done the pilot light FULL TANK comes on
during next drying and the programme stops, leaving the
laundry damp. The buzzer will sound.
After inserting the reservoir the START/PAUSE button
has to be depressed again to allow the programme to
continue.
Handy tip: The condensed water may be used in a
steam iron or to top up a battery, etc. In this case it must
be filtered (e.g. through a coffee filter).
P0639
Also clean the outside, removing all fluff.
Cleaning the air intake grill
Clean the rubber seal round the condenser cabinet and in
the inner part of the small door with a damp cloth.
Using a vacuum cleaner remove the fluff from the air
intake grill at the back of the appliance.
Important! Do not use pointed objects or utensils to
clean the spaces between the plates, as this could damage
the condenser and make it permeable.
Re-fit the condenser, turn the red stops upwards and
close the door.
Do not use this appliance if the
condenser has not been fitted.
P1162
Emptying the water reservoir
Cleaning the drum
Water extracted from the laundry condenses inside the
machine and is collected in a reservoir.
The reservoir must be emptied after each drying cycle to
ensure efficient operation when the machine is next used.
The FULL TANK light reminds you to perform this
operation.
If the laundry is not drying to the level of dryness you
have set, either too dry or too damp, we advise you to
clean the inside of the drum with a cloth soaked in
vinegar.
This will eliminate the slight residues of detergent and
softeners used in the washing, or to any residues of lime
contained in the water. A build up of these residues will
prevent the sensors from correctly measuring the degree
of dryness of the laundry.
Proceed as follows:
• Pull out the reservoir
• Turn it upside down and let water empty
• Re-fit the reservoir
