Safety Information

Dryer Saftey

- WARNING: Failure to follow these safety instructions could damage the clothes dryer or your clothes. You may then not be covered by warranty for this damage.

- Only plug this appliance directly into an AC power supply which is properly earthed and had the correct voltage. Refer to the appliance rating plate (located on the rear of your clothes dryer) for the voltage information.

- CAUTION! If this appliance is supplied from an extension cord, power-board or other power adapter, the extension cord/power-board must be positioned so that it is not subject to moisture or risk of moisture. For safety reasons, we strongly advise against the use of double adaptors, power-boards, extension leads or other similar devices.

- This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Important Safety Instructions

- If the electrical cord of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by the Manufacturer, Authorised Service Agent or similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard. Damage to the appliance, including the power cord, is not covered under the manufacturer's warranty and a fee for service may be payable.

- These dryers are for drying clothes, towels and linen at home. They are not designed or intended for use in Commercial environments. Do not use them for any other purpose.

- The dryer is not to be used with any clothing articles which have had industrial chemicals used for cleaning.

- This appliance is only intended for use indoors only within a domestic environment.

- The lint trap must be cleaned frequently- we strongly recommend this is done after each use.

- Adequate ventilation must be provided.

- Never dry unwashed items with your clothes dryer.

- Never use your clothes dryer to dry items such as latex, foam rubber, waterproof textiles, rubber backed articles, or pillows fitted with foam.

- Ensure all objects are removed from pockets.

- Lint must not be allowed to accumulate around the tumble dryer.

- Do not dry unwashed items in the tumble dryer.

- Always check your clothing items care labels to ensure they are suitable for use within your dryer.

- WARNING: The final cycle of your clothes dryer programs is a cool down cycle to reduce the temperature of your clothes. This is incredibly important to ensure that your clothing items won't be damaged. Never stop a tumble dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.

Fire Hazards

Some fabrics are not suitable for tumble drying.

The following MUST NOT be placed in your dryer due to the risk of a fire or an explosion:

- Item(s) that have been spotted or soaked with vegetable oil, cooking oil, suntan oil, linseed oil, salad oil, lubrication oil or grease. Oil affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat sources such as in a tumble dryer. The items become warm, causing as oxidation reaction in the oil. Oxidation creates heat. If heat cannot escape, the items can become hot enough to ignite. Pilling, stacking or storing oil-affected items can prevent heat from escaping and create a fire hazard. If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or cooking oil or have been contaminated by hair care products be placed in a tumble dryer, they should first be washed is hot water with extra detergent - this will reduce, but not eliminate the hazard. The final part of tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat (Cooling cycle) to ensure that the items are left at the temperature that ensures that the items will not be damage.

- Item(s) that have previously been cleaned in, washed in, or spotted with petrol/gasoline, industrial chemicals used only for cleaning, dry-cleaning solvents or other flammable or explosive substances are highly flammable. Highly flammable or explosive commonly found around the house include acetone, (nail polish remover) denatured alcohol, petrol/gasoline, kerosene, some spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers should not be put in the dryer. Items containing foam rubber (also known as latex foam) or similarly textured rubber-like materials. Foam rubber materials can produce fire by spontaneous combustion when heated.

Safety Information

- Rubber-backed articles, clothes fitted with foam rubber pads, pillows, rubber boots and rubber-coated sports shoes.

For your safety, and to reduce the risk of fire or an explosion, DO NOT store or use petrol or other inflammable vapours and liquids near your dryer.

Cleaning the Lint Filter

- WARNING! LINT BUILD-UP IS A FIRE HAZARD.

- A clean lint filter greatly improves your dryers efficiency and reduces drying times, saves energy and avoids overheating. Overheating may also damage your clothes.

- TIP! If your lint filter isn't emptied between drying loads, we estimate the drying time can double after 4-5 cycles and triple after 8 cycles. Aside from creating a risk of fire, this results in a significant increase in energy consumption to dry your clothes.

- You must empty your lint filter after each and every load.

- The lint filter is located on the inside of the door- shown below (Figure 1).

Close-up view of a white washing machine vent with perforated lid and ventilation slots (no text or symbols visible)

Figure 1: Lint filter location within your vented dryer.

To remove the lint filter, open the dryer door and simply lift the plastic filter out from its housing. You can click the lint filter open to allow easy access to remove the lint. Ensure that the plastic filter is clicked closed again before replacing into your clothes dryer.

TIP! The lint filter can only be inserted into its housing in one way.

IMPORTANT!

- Never operate your dryer without the lint filter in its correct position.

- Do not allow lint to build up around the dryer (on the door itself, inside the drum, around the lint filter itself, etc).

- A torn or damaged lint filter must be replaced immediately-cease use until this is replaced.

- Do not overload your dryer. Overloading can increase lint build-up because the airflow is reduced.

- TIP! To avoid potential fire hazards, we recommend that you pay for a qualified appliance technician to inspect and clean your dryer periodically.

Operating your Dryer

- Your dryer is rated to 7kg of dry clothing. Loads must not exceed this rated capacity.

- IMPORTANT! Always check your clothing's care label information to ensure they are suitable for use within dryers.

- Excessive drying is one of the most damaging things we do to our laundry. International drying symbols (Figure 2 below) help you select a dryer cycle and a temperature.

Figure 2: International drying symbols used on your clothing care labels.

- If the care label has a circle inside a square, your item can be tumble dried.

- The more dots on the iron symbol suggests the temperature of heat that can be applied:

- 1 dot = low temperature

- 2 dots = medium temperature

- 3 dots = high temperature

- If there is a cross over the tumble dry symbol, you should not tumble dry the item. It's recommended for air-drying only.

Safety Information

Some guidelines for various fabric types:

• Permanent press and synthetics - take out as soon as the dryer stops to reduce wrinkles.
• Woollen articles - not recommended. Pull them to their original shape, then dry them flat. Vented dryers can shrink woollen articles.
• Woven and loop knit materials - may shrink, by varying amount, depending on their quality. Do not use the "Max" Dryness setting for these fabrics, Always stretch them out immediately after drying.
• Fibre or leather materials - always check the manufacturer's instructions.
• Baby clothes and night gowns - acrylic clothing or sleepwear use only on the "Low" Dryness setting.
• Rubber and plastics - Do not dry any items made from or containing rubber or plastics, such as aprons, bibs, babies' water proof napkins, curtains, tablecloths, shower caps, clothes fitted with foam rubber pads, pillows, galoshes, or rubber coated tennis shoes.
• Fibreglass - not recommended, glass particles left in the dryer could be picked up by your clothes the next time you use the dryer and irritate your skin.
• CAUTION! Fabric softeners or similar products should not be used in a tumble dryer to eliminate the effects of static electricity unless this practice is specifically recommended by the manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.
• NOTE: We strongly advise against the use of fabric conditioners of the sheet type that are added to the clothes in the drum. These products may lead to rapid blockage of the lint filter and inefficient operation of your dryer.

Operating Instructions

Before First Use

Step 1. Power source and grounding

- The dryer employs alternative current with the rated voltage and frequency. When the voltage fluctuates between 6% of rated voltage, the dryer can work normally. Your clothes dryer should be on a dedicated power socket for both convenience and safety. Refer to safety notes in section 1.1 of this manual.

Step 2. Precautions

• Ensure all packaging, user manuals, paper and plastic are removed from within the clothes dryer before operation.
• Ensure the vents aren't blocked and adequate airflow exists with your chosen location.
• Always check your clothing articles care instructions to ensure they are suitable for use within a clothes dryer. Not all fabric types/clothing articles are suitable for use within vented clothes dryers.

Preparation Before Drying

• Before starting the appliance ensure the power plug has been inserted into the socket. Next place your laundry gently inside the drum, ensuring it weighs below the 7kg limit.
• Clothes should be washed before use within the dryer.
• Always ensure the same types of clothes are dried together.
• Try to sort your clothes to be dried into load that take a similar time to dry (for example heavier items separate from light items).
• Make sure any decorations or buttons on your clothing items are safe for high temperatures and well protected.
• It is recommended to turn your clothes inside-out.
• Please ensure that the power cord is in perfect condition before use. Should there be any damage to the power cord or plug, please immediately isolate the dryer from power and contact our After Sales Service Team.

Check the Filter

• Make sure that the filter is always clean and in the correct position.
• The filter must be cleaned regularly, after each use.

Loading Suggestions

• For faster drying results, load the dryer to 12 - 23 capacity of the drum. This will allow the clothes and air to circulate evenly.
• When drying a small load of clothes or even expensive clothes, it's best to add some towels that won't lose fibres, as this will help the wet clothes to dry more evenly.
• To avoid creases or static charges on your clothes, it's important to ensure you don't over-dry your items.
• TIP! Refer to the Reference weights of clothing articles (when dry) in the table below, to assist with avoiding overloading your dryer.

Operating Instructions

General Advice

• Never tumble dry the following: Delicate items such as net curtains, woollen, silk, fabric with metal trim, nylon tights, bulky materials such as blankets, eiderdown, sleeping bags, feather quilts and any item containing rubber foam or materials similar to foam rubber.
• Do not directly place undergarments such as bras and corsets that contain metal reinforcements, into your dryer. Your dryer may be damaged if a metal part were to come loose from the garment. Place such items in a bag designed for this purpose.
• Check and empty pockets. Clip, pens, nails and pins can damage both the dryer and your clothes. Other item such as matches or cigarette lighters will cause a fire.
• Close all press studs, hooks, eyes and zips that may catch on something else. Tie all belts and aprons string to prevent tangling.
• Drying time will depend on fabric type and construction, load size and wetness. Save time and money and always spin the load as dry as possible your washing machine.
• Always clean the lint filter-this will reduce drying time and save you money.
• The laundry must be thoroughly spun before tumble drying. Do not place hand washed items that have not been spun, into the dryer.
• To avoid static charge when drying is completed, use either a fabric softener when you are washing the laundry or a fabric conditioner specifically for tumble dryers.
• Remove the laundry when the dryer has finished drying.
• Do not over-dry laundry, this avoids creasing and saves energy.
• Clothing or towels containing sand or grit should be washed first.
• Due to variations in dryer load fabric texture and thickness it is possible that not all items will be dried evenly. If you experience uneven dryness on the Standard program please use the Extra Program but be mindful of the type of fabric being dried to avoid over drying certain types of fabric. Always follow drying instructions attached to the items intended to be dried in a clothes dryer.

• Drying time will also be effected by voltage fluctuations, room temperature and humidity. Clothes will dry more slowly on a cool or humid day.

• For best results, sort the load according to fabric. Such as heavy items which may take longer to dry (i.e. towels, flannelette sheets, etc) than ones which dry quickly (i.e. cotton shirts and sheets).

• Avoid drying dark clothes with light coloured items such as towels as lint will show on the dark clothes.
• Some fabrics will collect lint from other clothes and items. Separate those articles prone to causing lint and those prone to collecting lint, to minimise this problem. Clothes that give lint include towels, nappies, chenille. Clothes that collect lint include corduroy, synthetics and permanent press garments.
• If individual items are still damp after drying, you may need to run another program, or allow the items to finish drying naturally outside the dryer. This will be necessary particularly for multi-layered items (i.e. collars, pockets, etc).

Care & Maintenance

By ensuring proper cleaning and maintenance of your Esatto Vented Dryer, you can ensure that it will have a long and fault free operation.

WARNING! To avoid an electric shock, always unplug your dryer before cleaning.

Tips for Cleaning Your Dryer

Clean the dryer with a clean, damp cloth only. Do not use any solvent, abrasive cleaners, glass or all-purpose cleaners, as these sprays can damage plastic surfaces and other parts. Always wear gloves while cleaning to maintain safety.

For best results prepare a clean, damp cloth. Clean the door, especially the inside window. Next clean the sealing around the door opening, followed by the humidity sensor inside the drum. Following the guide included on this page, remove the lint filter and clean it as instructed. Finally, before starting the dryer ensure you dry all parts using a separate, soft and dry cloth.

Cleaning the Lint Filter

IMPORTANT! CLEAN THE FILTER AFTER EACH USE.

1. To clean the lint filter, first open the dryer door. You will notice the built in lint filter at the base of the opening, which can be easily lifted up.

1. Next open up the filter gently, and using your hands, a damp cloth, a soft brush or a small vacuum remove the lint on the filters. If the lint is particularly dusty, you can use water to help.
2. Once dry, re-fit the lint filter into the door opening.
3. Take extra notice of the correct orientation of the filter before reinserting. Ensure the filter is dry before reinstalling.

WARNING: The lint accumulated on the filter will block air circulation inside the dryer. Not cleaning the filter regularly will increase the time it takes for clothes to dry, and increase energy consumption. Ensure you clean the filter at least once a week.

WARNING: Never under any circumstances should you operate the dryer without the lint filter equipped.

Cleaning the Inner Drum

• Use a soft damp cloth to wipe the inner drum and cabinet.
• Ensure that the cloth is only slightly damp and never use excessive amounts of water.
• Do not use scouring pads or other abrasives as these will cause damage to your dryer.
• Do not use alcohol wipes or harsh cleaning chemicals.
