All you have to do is turn the Timer Control clockwise until the required time appears in line with the indicator.

Empty Water Light This light will glow when the water container is full. You should not wait for this light to glow before emptying the water container, but empty it after each load (see section "Emptying the Water Container"). NOTE: When the light glows you must stop the dryer and empty the water container. If the water light glows during a drying cycle the timer will advance to the Cool Tumble Phase without drying the load. The light will take approximately 10 seconds to go out after replacing the empty container. 9 Sorting your laundry 1. Always separate laundry into the correct fabric groups before washing and drying. See that all zips are closed, hooks and eyes are fastened and belt, strings etc. are tied loosely in bows, you will normally have done this for each item before the washing stage. It is important to extract as much water as possible from each item before drying. Make sure that the items to be dried are suitable for tumble drying, or are not of a type requiring `special attention' (see"Wash Care Labels" section). Maximum load size Your dryer will hold a load of 6kg (13lb) dry weight of natural fabrics. if you are drying items of man-made fibres (synthetic or acrylics), the maximum load should not exceed 3kg (6. 6lb) dry weight. This difference is that man-made fibres require more space to tumbledry without creasing. WARNING: DO NOT OVERLOAD AS THIS COULD RESULT IN REDUCED DRYING PERFORMANCE AND A POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD.
