Easy Iron Programme  
‘Easy Iron’ is a short 10 minute programme (8 minutes of heat followed by a 2 minute cool tumble period) which  
fluffs the fibres of clothing that have been left in the same position/location for an extended period of time. The  
cycle relaxes the fibres and makes them easier to iron and fold.  
! ‘Easy Iron’ is not a drying programme and should not be used for wet articles of clothing.  
For best results:  
1. Do not load more than the maximum capacity.  
These numbers refer to the dry weight:  
Fabric  
Maximum load  
Cotton and Cotton mixtures  
Synthetics  
2.5kg  
2kg  
Denim  
2kg  
2. Unload the dryer immediately after the end of the programme, hang, fold or iron the articles and put  
them away in the closet. Should this not be possible repeat the programme.  
The ‘Easy Iron’ effect varies from one fabric to the next. It works well on traditional fabrics like Cotton or Cotton  
mix, and less well on acrylic fibres and on materials such as Tencel®.  
Sport programme

Special clothing items  
Times are approximate and can vary depending  
upon:  
GB  
Blankets and Bedspreads: acrylic items (Acilan,  
Courtelle, Orion, Dralon) must be dried with special  
care on LOW heat setting. Avoid drying for a long  
period of time.  
G
Amount of water retained in clothes after spin  
cycle: towels and delicates retain a lot of water.  
G
Fabrics: items that are the same type of fabric but  
Pleated or creased garments: read the manufacturer’s  
drying instructions on the garment.  
different textures and thicknesses may not have  
the same drying time.  
G
Starched articles: do not dry these with non-  
starched items. Make sure that as much of the starch  
solution is removed from the load as possible before  
placing it in the dryer. Do not over-dry: the starch will  
become powdery and leave your clothing limp, which  
defeats the purpose of starch.  
Quantity of laundry: single items or small loads  
may take longer to dry.  
G
Dryness: If you are going to iron some of your  
clothes, they can be taken out while still a bit  
damp. Others can be left longer if you need them

Periodically check the vent tube and any  
permanent venting fixture to make sure that there  
has been no accumulation of fluff or lint, and  
remove it.  
Clean the filter after each cycle  
The filter is an important part of your dryer:  
it accumulates lint and fluff that is formed while dry-  
ing.  
Small items could also become trapped in the filter.  
When finished drying, therefore, clean the filter by  
rinsing it under running water or with your vacuum  
cleaner. Should the filter become clogged up, the air-  
flow inside the dryer will be seriously compromised:  
drying times lengthen and you will consume more  
energy. It may also damage your dryer.  
G
Periodically clean the surface of the stainless  
steel sensor inside the drum with vinegar to  
remove water contaminates. Apply carefully with  
a cloth, this will maintain the drying performance  
of the dryer. The sensor is located on the plastic  
vane inside the drum towards the front of the  
dryer. Rotate the drum if necessary to locate it.  
G
Remove lint that collects around the filter and the  
outlet vents.  
The filter is found in front  
of the dryer trim  
! Do not use solvents or abrasives.  
(see diagram).  
! Your dryer uses special bearing components which  
do not need lubrication.  
! Have your dryer checked regularly by authorised  
technicians to ensure electrical and mechanical safe-  
ty (see Service).  
Removing the filter:  
1. Pull the plastic grip of  
the filter upwards (see  
diagram).  
2. Clean the filter and  
replace it correctly.  
Ensure the filter is fully  
located flush into the  
tumble dryer trim.  
! Do not use the dryer without replacing the filter.  
Check the drum after each cycle  
Turn the drum manually in order to remove small  
items (handkerchiefs) that could have been left  
behind.
