Candy Heat Pump Tumble Dryer with Sensor Dry and AI Smart Move
Heat pump technology for everyday energy efficiency:
The Candy GD9N2-80 uses heat pump drying technology that recycles warm air through the drum rather than expelling it. This Candy heat pump tumble dryer is rated D on the current EU energy label.
Sensor Dry stops the cycle at the right moment:
Sensor Dry monitors moisture levels inside the drum throughout the cycle and stops automatically when the load reaches the selected dryness level - from Iron Dry through to Cupboard Dry across 4 settings. This prevents over-drying, which can cause shrinkage and unnecessary wear on fabrics over time.
AI Smart Move adapts to every load:
The AI Smart Move system continuously adjusts drum rotation speed and pattern based on the size and type of load detected during the cycle. Clothes move more evenly through the drum, reducing tangling and helping fabrics dry consistently from a small 2 kg quick load to a full 9 kg wash.
Fast cycles and specialist programmes for varied loads:
Up to 7 rapid cycles complete in under 60 minutes, covering smaller loads when time is short. The programme list also includes Easy Iron Plus for reduced creasing, Soft Touch for gentle care of delicate items, a Wool Care cycle, and an Eco programme for everyday loads. The Memory function saves a preferred programme for one-touch recall.
Practical design for day-to-day use:
The Soft Drum interior has a smooth surface to reduce friction on fabric during tumbling. The EasyCase water reservoir is integrated into the door for straightforward emptying, and a drain hose is included in the box if you prefer a permanent direct-drain setup. A 24-hour delay start, Child Lock, end-of-cycle indicator, and a time-to-end display add day-to-day convenience for a busy home.

Setup and Care
Positioning:
The GD9N2-80 is a freestanding dryer that can be positioned anywhere with access to a standard 3-pin mains socket. The drain hose can be connected to a permanent drain outlet for continuous condensate removal, or the EasyCase reservoir can be emptied manually after each use.
First use:
Before the first cycle, wipe the drum interior with a damp cloth and run a short empty cycle to remove any transport residue. Refer to the instruction manual to select the correct programme for the fabric type being dried.
Filter care:
The fluff filters should be cleaned after every cycle to maintain airflow and drying efficiency. The heat exchanger filter requires periodic cleaning according to the schedule in the instruction manual - a blocked filter indicator on the display will prompt you when attention is needed.
Water reservoir:
If using the EasyCase reservoir rather than the drain hose, empty and rinse it after each use. The full tank indicator on the display will alert you if it fills during a cycle.
