6 - TROUBLESHOOTING
Some incidents may arise when you are using your dryer. Here are the points you should check:
7 - INTERVENTIONS
Any work on your appliance must be performed by a Brand-approved qualified professional. When you call,
mention your appliance’s full reference (model, type, serial number). These details are shown on the manufac-
turer’s information plate
. (Fig. 1.1).
Fault: Check whether:
The dryer does not start: - the plug is in the socket.
- the door is properly closed.
- the “Start” key was pressed (if the appliance was
not in pause).
The drying times are too long: - the filter in the drum is clogged with fluff.
- the laundry has been spun enough beforehand
(500rpm minimum, but spinning at 850rpm provides
better drying times).
- the vent hose has too many bends.
- the air inlets and outlets are unobstructed enough to
ensure correct air circulation.
- the laudry choice selected matches the type of
items in the drum.
The laundry is too damp: - the filter in the drum is clogged with fluff.
- the type of laundry has been selected correctly or if
the drying time is good enough.
The laundry is too dry, too creased: - the drying time selected is too long: the drying time
is better to be too short than too long: this avoids
the laundry becoming too dry and difficult to iron.
The items are unevenly dried: - the types of textiles in the load are too different (e.g.
sheets together with jeans).
- the laundry has been laid correctly ‘unfolded’ in the
dryer.
- the drum is not overloaded.
The synthetic items are loaded with
static electricity: - the laundry has been dried too much.
- you have used softener during washing. By using
this product, you can reduce most of the problems
with static electricity.
4.1 - C LEANING THE FILTER
This is located in the lower part of your dryer.
Clean it as follows:
— Remove it from its housing by pulling it upwards
(Fig. 4.1.1).
— Open the filter and clean it by removing the thin
coating of fluff covering it
(Fig. 4.1.2).
— Re-insert it in its housing, pushing it well in.
Do not wash filter with water (Fig. 4.1.3).
The filter must be cleaned after every drying.
4 - REGULAR MAINTENANCE
4.2 - C LEANING THE APPLIANCE
To clean the control panel, the access to the drum
and the casing, use only a sponge or a damp cloth
and some soapy water.
— Ensure that there is no fluff accumulating round
the dryer.
— Clean the door seal with a damp cloth and the fil-
ter housing with your vacuum cleaner once a year.
— You should not use, under any circumstances,
the abrasive powders, the metal or plastic
sponges and the alcohol-based products (Fig. 4.2).
