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).
5.B - STANDARDIZED PROGRAMS
5.A - DRYING TIME
The drying times below are given to you as an indication, because they are function:
— The desired result: dry, damp, etc.
— The ambient temperature (these values correspond to an ambient temperature of 20°C).
— The quality of the prior spin-drying.
For lower spin speeds, the times will be relatively longer.
(For example, for 5kg of normal laundry spun at 500 rpm: 120 to 160 minutes).
4 - REGULAR MAINTENANCE
(continued)
Load I ”Dry cotton” 7 kg .... select “Cotton” - 140 min
Load II ”Ready to iron cotton” 7 kg .... select “Cotton” - 100 min
Load III ”Easy care textiles” 3 kg .... select “Delicates” - 60 min
R ECOMMENDED PROGRAMS FOR TESTS TO EN 61121 - DIRECTIVE 95/13/ EEC
Fault: Check whether:
The dryer does not start: - the plug is in the socket.
- the door is properly closed.
- the condenser is correctly locked in place.
- 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 room temperature is not too high, particularly if
the room is small: if necessary, open the door or
window.
- the condenser is not clogged.
- 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 condenser is not blocked by fluff.
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.
The “Tank Full” indicator light is lit: - the condensate container is full: once you have emp-
tied it, re-insert it correctly, pushing it completely
into its housing.
The “Tank Full” indicator light illumi-
nates although the tank is empty: - the container has been properly inserted: push it in
completely.
- the condenser is tightly locked on the two sides.
4.5 - D IRECT EVACUATION OF WATER CONDEN -
SER (Top condensate container models only)
To avoid having to empty the collection tank every
time you use the appliance, you have a kit (*) for
removing the water from the condenser directly into
the drain (hose and deflector). To fit this:
— Take off the existing pipe
and push it inside
the appliance (Fig. 4.5.1).
— Clip the deflector with the top of the pump
(Fig. 4.5.1).
— Connect the hose
from the kit to the end C
B
A
connector on the appliancl (Fig. 4.5.2).
You can connect the other end of the hose either:
- To a ventilated trap
(Fig. 4.5.3).
- Or a sink trap (Fig. 4.5.4).
When connecting to a trap, you must remove the fil-
ler plug. Then press home the rubber tip. If neces-
sary, add a clamp connection
(Fig. 4.5.4).
— (*) This kit is provided with the appliance or is
available near your After-sales service (according
to model).
— The deflector must necessarily be positioned
before the drain hose connection.
D
Type of items Load For items spun at Drying cycle time
COTTON -
5 kg 1200 rpm 60 to 80 minutes
3,5 kg 1200 rpm 50 to 60 minutes
MIXED -
5 kg 850 rpm 80 to 100 minutes
2,5 kg 850 rpm 50 to 60 minutes
DELICATES -
3 kg 500 rpm 60 to 80 minutes
1,5 kg 500 rpm 40 to 50 minutes
4.4 - 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. 4.4).
4.6 - C HANGING THE BULB (according to model)
You can replace the light bulb (type E14-15W/230V)
yourself
(Fig. 1.1).
To do this:
— Unscrew the glass cover located at the top, inside
the appliance.
— Unscrew the extinguished bulb
and replace it.
— Screw on the glass cover tightly.
Important: Unplug the power cord before
changing the bulb. The bulb must be repla-
ced when the appliance is cooled down.
