– Always keep the ventilation slots on the  
base of the dryer unobstructed;  
– Use the loading volumes specified in  
the programme overview;  
– Ensure you have good ventilation in the  
installation room;  
– Clean the micro-fine filter and fine  
strainer after each drying cycle;  
• Fabric softeners, or similar products  
should be used as specified by the fabric  
softener instructions.  
Caution - hot surface : Do not touch  
the door light cover surface when the light  
is switched on.  
– Spin the laundry well before drying.  
Energy consumption depends on  
spinning speed set in washing  
machine. Higher spinning speed -  
lower energy consumption.

accumulates during drying. To ensure that  
the dryer works perfectly, the fluff filters  
(micro-fine filter and fine strainer) must be  
cleaned after every drying cycle.  
The warning lamp Filter lights to remind you  
of this operation at the end of each cycle.  
Caution! Never operate the dryer  
without fluff filters or with damaged  
or blocked fluff filters.

cleaned after every drying cycle, but  
should be checked regularly and cleaned  
of fluff if necessary.  
If the fine filter is not fitted, the large  
mesh filter will not snap into place  
and the loading door cannot be  
closed.  
7. To do this, grip the top of the large  
mesh filter and pull it forwards until it  
comes loose from the two brackets.  
Cleaning the door seal

not suitable for drinking or for  
preparing foodstuffs.  
1. Take out drawer containing water  
reservoir completely 1 and pull up the

Lime in the water or cleaning agents  
may form a barely visible lining on the  
inside of the drum. The degree to  
which the laundry has been dried is  
then no longer detected reliably. The  
laundry is damper than expected  
when removed from the dryer.  
Use a standard domestic cleaner (e.g.  
vinegar-based cleaner) to wipe down  
the inside of the drum and drum ribs.  
6. When necessary, approx. once every 6  
months, remove the fluff from the heat  
exchanger using the sponge supplied.  
When doing this, please use rubber  
gloves.  
Tip: The fluff can be removed more easily if  
it is first dampened (e. g. with a laundry  
dampener) or with help of vacuum cleaner.

specially for dryers. The special bulb can be  
obtained from your local Service Force  
Centre.  
Warning! Before replacing the bulb,  
disconnect the mains plug; with a  
permanent connection: fully unscrew  
or deactivate the fuse.  
Important! When the appliance is  
switched on, the interior lighting switches  
itself off after 4 minutes when the door is  
open.  
1. Unscrew the cover above the bulb (this  
can be found directly behind the loading  
aperture, at the top; refer to  
“Description of machine” section.)

Important!  
• The appliance should not be installed in an  
environment such as a unheated garage or  
outbuilding. The combination of high  
humidity and low ambient temperatures  
could affect the performance or the  
appliance and therefore invalidate your  
guarantee.  
• The hot air emitted by the tumble dryer  
can reach temperatures of up to 60°C.  
The appliance must therefore not be  
installed on floors which are not resistant  
to high temperatures.  
Appliance positioning  
• 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  
round the appliance. Do not obstruct the  
front ventilation grille or the air intake  
grilles at the back of the machine.  
• To keep vibration and noise to a  
minimum when the dryer is in use, it  
should be placed on a firm, level surface.  
• 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.  
• Should the appliance be moved, it must  
be transported vertically.  
• The appliance must not be installed  
behind the lockable door, a sliding door a  
door with a hinge on the opposite side to  
that of the appliance in such a way that a  
full opening of the dryer is restricted.  
• 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.  
Removing transport  
safety packaging  
• The feet must never be removed. Do not  
restrict the floor clearance through  
deeppile carpets, strips of wood or  
similar. This might cause heat built-up  
which would interfere with the operation  
of the appliance.  
Caution! Before use all parts of the  
transport packaging must be  
removed.  
1. Open loading door  
2. Pull off adhesive strips from inside  
machine on top of drum.

Warning! THIS APPLIANCE  
MUST BE EARTHED.  
Should the appliance power  
supply cable need to be  
replaced, this must be carried  
out by a Service Force agent  
(see chapter: Repairs - after  
sales service).  
The manufacturer declines any  
liability should this safety  
measure not be observed.  
3. Remove foil hose and polystyrene  
padding from the machine.  
Before switching on, make sure the  
electricity supply voltage is the same as that  
indicated on the appliance’s rating plate.  
(See picture on page 6).  
The appliance is supplied with a 13amp plug  
fitted. In the event of having to change the  
fuse in the plug supplied, a 13amp ASTA  
approved BS 1363/A fuse must be used.  
Should the plug need to be replaced for any  
reason, proceed as described below. The  
wires in the mains lead are coloured in  
accordance with the following code:  
Warning! If the appliance was not  
transported in an upright position,  
leave it to stand for 12 hours before  
connecting it to the electricity supply  
and using it for the first time, so that  
the oil can flow back to the

If you fit your own plug, the colours of the  
wires in the mains lead of your appliance  
may not correspond with the markings  
identifying the terminals in your plug.  
Proceed as follows:  
1. Connect the Green and Yellow (earth)  
wire to the terminal in the plug which is  
marked with the letter "E" or the earth  
Warning! The manufacturer

Warning! The power supply  
cable must be accessible after  
installing the machine.  
2. Connect the Blue (neutral) wire to the  
terminal in the plug which is marked  
with the letter "N" or coloured black.  
3. Connect the Brown (live) wire to the  
terminal in the plug which is marked  
with the letter "L" or coloured red.  
4. Upon completion there must be no cut,  
or stray strands of wire present and the  
cord clamp must be secure over the  
outer sheath.  
Permanent connection  
In the case of permanent connection it is  
necessary that you install a double pole  
switch between the appliance and the  
electricity supply (mains), with a minimum  
gap of 3mm between the switch contacts  
and of a type suitable for the required load  
in compliance with the current electrical  
regulations.  
Warning! A cut off plug  
inserted into a 13 amp socket is  
a serious safety (shock) hazard.  
Ensure that the cut off plug is  
disposed of safely.  
The switch must not break the yellow and  
green earth cable at any point.  
Door reversal  
To make it easier to load or unload the  
laundry, the door can be reversed.  
Warning! The plug must still be  
accessible after the appliance  
has been installed.  
Warning! The door must only be  
reversed by an authorised service  
engineer.  
Warning! The appliance should  
not be connected to the  
electrical supply by means of an  
extension cable.  
Please contact your nearest John Lewis  
branch who will give you details of your local  
Service Force Centre. The engineer will  
carry out the door reversal at your cost.
