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.
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 air-flow exists.
Always check your clothing articles care instructions to ensure they are suitable for use within a clothes dryer. Not all clothes are suitable for use within clothes dryers. The table below explains common symbols on care instructions for clothing:

Installation Instructions

POWER SOURCE AND GROUNDING
It’s recommended to use the dryer on it’s own dedicated power outlet for both convenience and safety. The power outlet must be grounded.
Important! If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by Residentia Group or one of it’s authorised service representatives. Please contact 1300 11 HELP (4357) and ensure the appliance is completely disconnected from the power supply.

SIMPLE INSTALLATION:

Step 1: Dryer should be placed in a ventilated area with a minium of 80mm between the top of the dryer and ceiling and with no less than 10cm distance from the wall or cabinetry. It is also recommended that there are no obstacles within 1.5m of the dryers front, to ensure ease of operation and ventilation. Determine a location to mount the dryer and attach both horizontal and
vertical screw position templates to the wall (Fig. 1). Ensure each bracket position can be securely fastened (eg. Into the stud). Fit timber slats (not supplied) if necessary.

Step 2: Fix the wall hanging brackets and both left/right support brackets to the wall securely in accordance with the template (Fig. 2).

Ensure power cord and plug is accessible and reaches a power source.
Mounting Into Wood: Fix all brackets to the wall securely (eg. Into the stud) with M8012 expansion screw (not supplied). Fit additional timber slat(s) (not supplied) between the studs to mount the bracket onto if the stud position is too wide.
Mounting Into Concrete: Drill 8 holes on the wall with the diameter of 012 according to the screw position templates. Fix all brackets to the wall securely with expansion screw bolts supplied.

Step 3: With assistance, mount the dryer on wall bracket, upright or inverted depending on personal preference.
WARNING: Weight Hazard. Two or more people required to lift and install the dryer.

Ensure brackets are fixed to the wall securely.
Ensure hanging brackets are pushed into position and dryer is placed on the support brackets before slowly releasing the full weight onto the brackets (Fig. 3).

Step 4: Remove and then replace the control panel with the supplied inverted control panel. Install the plastic cover on the top of the dryer.
Note: Use a spirit level to ensure that your dryer is horizontally level, whether it be on the ground or wall mounted. As with all appliances with moving internal parts, it’s essential that the dryer is level as it will effect it’s balance and operation.

Important! Please ensure that the dyer is only ever installed in an internal environment only (and not outside), or an environment where the dryer could become wet. Never place the dryer near combustible surfaces (such as curtains) and ensure the dryer isn’t operating near gas or other flammable materials.

DETAILED OPERATION:

PREPARATION BEFORE DRYER
- 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 Residentia Group on 1300 11 HELP (4357).
CHECK THE FILTER
- Make sure that the filter is always clean and in the correct position.
- The filter must be cleaned regularly.
LOAD THE DRYER
- For faster drying results, load the dryer to 1/2 -> 2/3 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 fibers, 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.
  REFERENCE WEIGHTS OF CLOTHING (WHEN DRY):
CLOSE THE DRYER DOOR
SET YOUR DESIRED DRYER PROGRAM.
PROGRAM FUNCTIONS: Note: At the completion of a drying program, the clothes dryer will circulate cold air. This ensures that your clothing is left at a temperature and that your clothes aren’t damaged. The Anti-Crease function adds a short amount of time at the end of your drying program to shake the clothes and reduce creasing.
Note: The energy rating was calculated using the Cotton program and Extra dryness level.
Warning! Always follow the care instructions on each of your garments.
END OF THE DRYING PROGRAM
- At the completion of the program, an audible tone will sound to remind you to remove the clothes from the dryer.
TAKE OUT THE PLUG
- Just to be safe, always unplug the dryer after each use.
CLEAN THE FILTER AND INNER DRUM
- Accumulated dust and fibers will effect the air circulation inside the dryer and will cause longer drying times.
- Always ensure the dryer is switched off and unplugged before cleaning.

Cleaning and 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.

CLEANING THE FILTER

Remove the lint filter, located within the door opening.
Clean the filter by wiping it with a damp cloth.
Once dry, re-fit the lint filter into the door opening.

Important! Clean the filter after each use.

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.

Troubleshooting

OPERATION IN CASE OF EMERGENCY

In the event of an emergency you should:

Switch off the clothes dryer using the Power button
Switch the clothes dryer off at the power point and unplug the unit. If the power point isn’t accessible, switch the relevant circuit off at your fuse box/switch board.
Call the Residentia Support Team on 1300 11 HELP (4357).
Some minor faults can be fixed by referring to the instructions given in the Troubleshooting section below and on the following page. Alternatively, please see our self-help section online at: support.residentiagroup.com.au.

FURTHER PROBLEM SOLVING

SAFETY RESET

These dryers have a safety cut out switch which is activated by temperature.
The safety reset button is on the backboard. If your dryer not heating this button must be reset before the dryer will operate again. You may need to wait 10 minutes for cooling to occur.
The most common reason for the dryer to overheat is a blocked filter. Clean the lint filter after each load to prevent overheating of the dryer.
It will only be necessary to press the safety reset button if the dryer not heating. Allow the dryer at least 10 minutes to cool down before pressing the button .Press the white button in until you feel the reset click. Cleaning the filter after each load will avoid repetitive operation of the safety cut out switch.

The cut out switch may operate for the following reason:

Lint filter is blocked.
Exhaust outlets blocked at the back of the dryer.
Poor ventilation in the laundry or room-open a window or door
Lightweight garment eg. Handkerchief, sucked over the filter.

Safety Reset Button:
Use your finger or a pencil to press the button in until you feel it click.
