If something goes wrong
First, don’t panic!
There may be nothing wrong at all.
Look for your
problem below, then check the things we suggest. More often than
not, this will give you the answer to your problem, and you’ll be able
to carry on without having to telephone your Service Office.
If after this you still cannot get your machine to work, follow the
advice given on the next page.
Check these things first
1. Is the machine plugged in and switched on at the socket?
2. Is the Control set to required programme?
3. Is the door securely closed?
4. Have you pressed the START button?
5. Has the fuse blown? (Try plugging in another appliance to check).
6. Have you used an extension lead? Many are not suitable. Try
plugging the dryer directly into a socket to check.
1. Have you forgotten to clean the filter? It should be cleaned after
each load.
2. Does the water container need emptying?
Is the Indicator lamp glowing
red / orange
?
The bottle should be emptied after every load.
3. Does the Condenser need cleaning? It should be cleaned every
month.
4. Have you selected the correct programme setting for the type of
fabric you are drying?
5. Have the air intake grille or rear vents of the Dryer been
obstructed?
6. Were the clothes ‘excessively wet’ when they were put in?
7. Was the correct programme selected?
8. Have you overloaded the dryer?
This is perfectly normal - it means that the Dryer is on ‘Crease Care’
and has reached the end of the drying cycle and the clothes are
ready to take out.
This is perfectly normal, the dryer is on ‘Crease Care’ as above.
Press the Alarm (Buzzer) button and the bleeping will stop.
See section "The Controls", this indicates a possible fault.
