Problem Possible cause Remedy There is a build up of fluff. Fluff is principally the result of friction when garments are being worn and washed. Machine drying hardly causes any fluff to form and has been established by research institutes to have no appreciable effect on the lifetime of the garment. Fluff is collected by the fluff filter and can b[...]

Problem Possible cause Remedy The drying process goes on too long or even switches off. Important : Before attempting to remedy one of the following causes, switch the dryer off and switch on again to start the programme again. Ventilation to the dryer is insufficient (e.g. because it is installed in a room which is too small). Open a door or windo[...]

Check and fault indicator lamps Problem Possible cause Remedy The programme has stopped. The Anti-crease/Finish lamp has come on in the sequence display and the buzzer is sounding. This is not a fault. The electronic unit has recognised that there is no laundry in the drum and cancelled the programme. Drying individual garments or items which are a[...]

Electrical connection U .K. All electrical work should be carried out by a suitably qualified and competent person, in strict accordance with current national and local safety regulations (BS 7671 in the UK). Ensure power is not supplied to the appliance until after installation work has been carried out. The appliance is supplied with a mains cabl[...]

General Important Before operating the tumble dryer , a suitable ducting system must be installed to carry the moist air from the dryer to the outside. This can be: . . . flexible ducting hose, or plastic piping connected to the dryer , or . . . the dryer may be connected directly to the wall vent. – Before installing the ducting system, ensure t[...]

Calculating the effective duct length: Friction against the inner walls of the ducting will slow down the expelled air as it passes through. An elbow , bend, non-return flap or wall vent creates more friction than a straight duct. The friction created by each of these is expressed as an ad ditional duct length factor . The additional length factors[...]

3. Example A Wall pipe, with louvred vent = 1 x 3.8 m Additional duct length = 3.8 m B/D 2 Elbows, 90° = 2 x 0.8 m Additional duct length = 1.6 m C 0.5 m plastic piping = 0.5 x 1 m Additional duct length = 0.5 m E Side connection, left = 1 m Additional duct length = 1.0 m Effective duct length = 6.9 m Result: A duct diameter of 100 mm is adequate [...]

V enting systems overview The various venting systems which are possible ( a b c ) are described on the following pages. Adapter A ring adapter ** (1) is installed in adapter (2) for the installation of a flexible vent duct. It reduces time and energy requir ements during drying when used in combination with a short vent duct (maximum 10 m total le[...]

b V enting system with plastic piping Plastic piping is a good option where the vented air has to ducted for some distance. The smooth walls of the pipe are less r esistant to the vented air than the walls of a flexible vent hose, for example. Time and energy consumption are better with plastic piping. ^ The following items are r equired: . . . . .[...]

c Connecting directly to a wall vent The best method of venting the dryer is to connect it directly to the outside wall of a room. However , it is necessary to inser t the wall vent right through the wall. Because the vented air is blown directly outside, and has only a short distance to go, this system is very efficient in terms of time and energy[...]
