Advice :
Some incidents may arise when you are using your dryer. Here are the points you should
check.
Fault :
The dryer does not start :
The drying times are too long :
The laundry is too damp :
The laundry is too dry, too creased :
The items are unevenly dried :
The synthetic items are loaded with
static electricity :
The "Tank Full" indicator light is lit :
The "Tank Full" indicator light illumi-
nates although the tank is empty :
Check whether :
- The plug is in the socket
- The On/Off button is pressed in
- The door is properly closed
- The condenser is correctly locked in place.
- 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 condenser is not clogged.
- The air inlets and outlets are unobstructed enough to
ensure correct air circulation.
- The drying program selected matches the type of
items in the drum.
- The filter in the drum is clogged with fluff
- The type of drying has been selected correctly (too
low) : switch to the next programme up or increase
the drying time.
- The condenser is not blocked by fluff.
- 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 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 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 condensate container is full : once you have emp-
tied it, re-insert it correctly, pushing it completely into
its housing
- The container has been properly inserted: push it in
completely.
- The condenser is tightly locked on the two sides.
