The tumble dryer won’t start.
●The plug is not plugged into the socket, or not making contact.

Programme finishes and clothes are damper than expected.
The option lights flash and the display shows a fault code F followed by one or two numbers.
The display briefly shows every 6 seconds.
!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).
●If the display shows a fault:
-Turn off and remove the plug. Clean the filter (see Maintenance). Then replace the plug, turn on and start another programme. If a fault is then displayed: Note down the code and contact the Service Centre (see Service).
●The dryer is in ‘Demo’ mode. Press and hold both the On/Off and
Start/Pause buttons for 3 seconds. The display will show for 3 seconds and then the dryer will resume normal operation.
