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 Timer Control set to required time?
3. Is the door securely closed?
4. Has the start button been pressed hard enough? Try pressing the

start button again.

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.

7. Has a delayed start been selected? (Not all models).

1. Have you forgotten to clean the filter? It should be cleaned after

each load.

2. Does the water container need emptying? Is the empty water light

glowing? The water container should be emptied after every load.

3. Does the condenser need cleaning? It should be cleaned every

month.

4. Have you selected the correct Heat setting for the type of fabric

you are drying? (IN for High, OUT for low).

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 time selected?
8. Have you overloaded the dryer?

1. Has the correct programme been selected for the load?

Loads above 1kg
Loads less than 1kg use timed dry programme.

This is perfectly normal, the dryer has finished its programme. Press
the Buzzer button and the bleeping will stop or open the door.

Have you re-read this instruction book?
