Electrolux EDI97170W - Manual (Page 12)

Important: If in doubt, always select a
lower steam level first until you have
more experience with load volumes, fab-
ric types and the corresponding opti-
mum steam level. If too high a steam
level is selected, garments may lose their
shape. If too low a steam level is selec-
ted, creases may remain.
Selecting additional functions
The additional functions available for the
Iron Aid programmes are BUZZER, DELAY
and the CHILD LOCK.
BUZZER
The appliance is supplied with the BUZZER
function activated. When the drying cycle
has finished, an intermittent acoustic signal
will sound. Each time a button is pressed or
a programme is changed using the pro-
gramme knob, an audible signal is also set to
sound. The button is used to switch the func-
tion on or off. When the function is active, the
BUZZER
symbol appears in the display.
DELAY
With the DELAY button, you can delay
the start of a programme by between 30
minutes (
) and a maxi-
mum of 20 hours ( ).
1. Select the programme and additional
functions.
2. Press the DELAY button as many times
as necessary until the required start delay
appears on the display, e.g.
if the programme is to be started in
12 hours.
3. To activate the delay timer, press the
START/PAUSE button. The amount of
time remaining until the programme is set
to start is continuously displayed (e.g.
, ,
, … etc).
If the display is showing
and you press the button again, the
time delay will be cancelled. The display
will show
and then the duration of the
selected programme.
CHILD LOCK
The child lock can be set to prevent a pro-
gramme being accidentally started or a pro-
gramme in operation being accidentally
changed. The child safety device locks all
buttons and the programme knob. The child
safety device can be activated or deactivated
by holding down the BUZZER and TIME but-
tons simultaneously for 5 seconds.
• Before programme is started: Appliance
cannot be used
• After programme is started: Programme in
operation cannot be changed
The symbol appears in the display to in-
dicate that the child safety device is activa-
ted. The child safety device is not deactivated
once the programme comes to an end. If you
want to set a new programme, you must first
deactivate the child safety device.
Starting an Iron Aid
TM
programme
Press the START/PAUSE button. The pro-
gramme is started. First, the drying phase in-
dicator appears in the display. The display
will also show the programme duration for
the selected Iron Aid programme, not includ-
ing the additional drying phase. With wet
laundry, after a few minutes the appliance will
show the correct programme duration for the
Iron Aid programme including the preceding
drying programme. As soon as the right level
of dryness is reached, the Iron Aid pro-
gramme will start automatically. The steam indicator shows the progress of the Iron Aid
programme in the display. The individual
steam phases are shown by animated
clouds of steam.
Caution! Important: During the steam
phases that form part of the Iron Aid
programme and also the anti-crease
phase (represented by animated clouds
of steam in the display), the loading door
cannot be opened. Risk of burns!
