The tumble dryer is intended only for drying textile material washed in water.

Undergarments that contain metal reinforcements should not be placed in the dryer.
Damage to the dryer can result if the metal reinforcements come loose during drying. If

z
Check and remove all objects from pockets, eg lighters and matches.
z
Unplug the machine from the power supply when it is not in use.
z
Do not swing on or put weight on the door.
z
Clothes should go through the cool down/airing phase in the final part of the cycle.
This ensures items are left at a temperature where they will not be damaged. Ifforany
reason the dryer is stopped before the cycle has finished, dry clothes should be
removed immediately and not left in the dryer. Clothes should be quickly spread out
flat to cool so heat can dissipate, not left bunched up, eg in a clothes basket.

Do not under any circumstances dry an electric blanket or any other electrical, plastic
or rubber items in your dryer, unless the care label specifically states it is safe to do so.
Never dry these items at high temperatures.
z
Do not dry curtains in your dryer. Sunlight makes them brittle and they may
disintegrate during drying.

Do not use the water collected in the water tank for drinking or food processing.
z
Never run the dryer without the water tank in place.
