If something goes wrong
First, don’t panic! There may be nothing wrong at all. Look for your problem below, then check the things we suggest. More often than not, this will give you the answer to your problem, and you’ll be able to carry on without having to telephone your Service Office.
If after this you still cannot get your machine to work, follow the advice given on the next page.
Problem | Check these things first |
‘It won’t start’ 1. Is the machine plugged in and switched on at the socket?
2.Is the timer control set to required time?
3.Is the door securely closed?
4.Has the start button been pressed hard enough? Try pressing again.
5.Has the fuse blown? (Try plugging in another appliance to check)
6.Have you used an extension lead? Many are not suitable. Try plugging the dryer directly into a socket to check.
‘It is taking a long time to dry’
1.Have you forgotten to clean the filter? It should be cleaned after each load.
2.Does the water container need emptying? Is the Empty water light glowing? The bottle should be emptied after every load.
3.Does the condenser need cleaning? It should be cleaned every month.
4.Have you selected the correct Heat setting for the type of fabric you are drying?
5.Have the air intake grille or rear vents of the Dryer been obstructed?
6.Were the clothes ‘excessively wet’ when they were put in?
7.Was the correct time selected?
8.Have you overloaded the dryer?
