1 PURPOSE OF THIS MANUAL
The purpose of this manual is to provide service engineers who are already familiar with the repair procedures
for traditional washing machines with information regarding washing machines fitted with the EWM09312 (TC4-
TC3) and EWX13611 (TC4-TC3) electronic control system.
Previous platforms (electronic/mechanical) used a safety pressure switch which controlled the minimum water
level in the tub, beneath which the supply to the heating element was interrupted.
The current electronic appliances manufactured use a heating element with thermal fuses (inside its branches)
as safety, which interrupt if the water level drops below the minimum level permitted.
The incorporated NTC probe contacts have a 2.5 mm pitch.
The manual deals with the following topics:
General characteristics
Control panel and compatibility between washing programmes and options
Settings: Demo, Diagnostics
Alarms
Technical and functional characteristics
Accessibility
1.1 Low consumption mode
In order to reduce electricity waste when the cycle is not running, the appliances on this platform are designed
to enter consumption reduction mode.
1.1.1
TC4 TC3 with universal motor (EWM09312, EWX13611)
“Stand-Off” mode
When the appliance is switched off at the ON/OFF button, it is in the
“Stand-Off” or “virtual” off status. The LEDs
and the LCD screen are turned off and the buttons are disabled, although the main circuit board and certain
electrical components are electrically powered.
You have to unplug the appliance to cut off the power supply
“Auto-off” mode
If, after 5 minutes, during the programme selecting phase or after the end of the cycle, the appliance receives
no further instructions, it is automatically turned off (for energy savings in conformity with the standards on
energy consumption).
All the settings are stored so that when the appliance is turned back on, the programme is ready or if the auto-off
mode was triggered after the end of the cycle, the user can see that the cycle ended normally, and can restart it
if necessary.
You have to unplug the appliance to cut off the power supply
If an alarm goes off when a wash programme is running, the automatic turn off is disabled showing the alarm.
