When the container is full the `EMPTY WATER' indicator on the control panel will light, and the container MUST be emptied. However, we recommend that the container is emptied after each drying cycle. NOTE: Very little water will collect during the first few cycles of a new machine as an internal reservoir is filled first. To remove the container 1. When it is full the water container will weigh about 4kg. 2. Open the the lid located on the top of the container and empty the water out. PUSH FIRMLY INTO PLACE. NOTE: If you have the option of drainage near the dryer it is possible to use the discharge kit to provide a permanent drain for the water collected by the dryer. All the information for assembly of the kit is contained in the kit envelope. 13 40003597. qxd 25/07/2005 15:06 Page 14 Condenser To remove the condenser 1.

The table below lists the programmes and the function of each programme. For small loads and separate items or pre-dried fabrics with low moisture content, use the timed programmes. Set the programme between 30 and 75 minutes depending on the load size and dryness required, and select high or low heat depending upon the fabric type. If the sensor does not detect the item the dryer will only operate for 10 minutes before going into cooldown.
