GB

following troubleshooting suggestions:

 

 

Problem:

Possible causes / Solution:

 

The tumble dryer won’t start.

The plug is not plugged into the socket, or not making contact.

 

 

There has been a power failure.

 

 

The fuse has blown. Try to plug another appliance into the socket.

 

 

You are using an extension cord? Try to plug the dryer’s power cord

 

 

 

directly into the socket.

 

 

The door is not closed securely?

 

 

The PROGRAMMES knob has not been set properly (see Start and

 

 

 

Programmes).

 

 

The START button has not been pressed (see Start and Programmes).

It is taking a long time to dry. The filter has not been cleaned (see Maintenance).

The temperature setting is not ideal for the type of fabric you are drying (see Start and Programmes, and see Laundry).

The water container needs emptying? The empty water light is flashing? (see Maintenance).

The condenser needs cleaning? (see Maintenance).

The correct drying time has not been selected for the load (see Laundry).

The air intake grille or rear vents are obstructed (see Installation, and see Maintenance).

The items were too wet (see Laundry).

The dryer was overloaded (see Laundry).

Empty water light is on and the water container is not full.

Programme finishes and clothes are damper than expected.

This is normal, the light flashes when the container is full. If the light is on but not flashing it is just a reminder to empty the container (see Start and Programmes).

!For safety the dryer has a maximum programme time of 4 hours. If an automatic programme has not sensed the required final moisture in this time the dryer will complete the programme and stop. Check the above points and run the programme again, if the results are still damp, contact the Service Centre

(see Service).
