Safety features
Motor protection
If the winding is heated excessively due to
overload the motor is switched off automati-
cally by a winding thermostat. The heater
plate is lowered. Switch the ironer on again
only after it has had time to cool down by
pressing button "I".
Avoid unnecessarily running the ironer
without passing laundry through it.
Do not restrict ironing of smaller articles to
any one part of the roller. Make use of the
whole roller width.
This way an equal amount of heat is obtained
from the heater plate and energy is saved.
The roller is also protected from uneven use.
Safety feature for insufficient air supply*
When there is insufficent air supply to the
machine the heating is automatically switched
off, and the "Ignition fault" indicator light
comes on.
It is only possible to iron cold after a few
minutes.
Check whether the exhaust system is clear.
If there is nothing wrong with the exhaust sy-
stem call the Service department.
Safety feature for insufficient gas supply*
When the gas stopcock is turned off or the
gas supply pressure is low, the rotary iron can
not be switched on. If the gas supply pressure
is reduced during operation, the machine swit-
ches off automatically and the heater plate is
withdrawn.
When the gas supply pressure has been re-
established, the machine can be switched on
again by pressing the "I" button.
If this fault recurs the on-site gas supply
system must be checked by an accredited
gas engineer, (Corgi registered in the UK).
*) only with gas heated rotary ironers
Emergency release during a power cut
There is a handwheel at the rear of the right
hand column which can be operated manually
to release the roller from the hot heater plate
in the event of a power cut. Isolate the ma-
chine from the electricity supply. Turn the
handwheel anti-clockwise to lower the heater
plate from the roller. During normal operation
the wheel turns as the heater plate is brought
into position or withdrawn.
