6.7 Starting the program
Press the Start/Stand-by button to start the
program.
Start/Stand-by and Drying indicators turn on to
show that program started.
6.8 Child Lock
The drying machine has a child lock which
prevents the program flow from being
interrupted when the buttons are pressed
during a program. When the Child Lock is
activated, all buttons on the panel except
the On/Off/Program Selection button are
deactivated.
Press the Audible Warning button for 3
seconds in order to activate the child lock.
The child lock has to be deactivated to be
able to start a new program after the current
program is finished or to be able to interfere
with the program. To deactivate the child lock,
keep the same buttons pressed for 3 seconds.
When the child lock is activated,
the child lock warning indicator on
the screen turns on.
When the child lock is active:
The drying machine runs, or in stand-by state
the indicator symbols will not change upon
changing the position of the program selection
button.
When the drying machine is
operated and the child lock is
active, if the program selection
button is turned, a double beeping
noise will be heard. If the child lock
is deactivated before the program
selection button is turned to its
original place, the program will
be terminated since the program
selection button is displaced.
6.9 Changing the program
after it is started
You can change the program you selected to
dry your laundry with a different program after
the drying machine starts running.
• For example, Pause the program and turn
the On/Off/Program Selection button to
select the Extra Dry program in order to
select the Extra Dry program instead of
Ironing Dryness.
• Press the Start/Stand-by button to start
the program.
Adding and removing clothes during
stand-by
If you want to add or remove clothes to/from
the drying machine after the drying program
starts:
• Press the Start/Stand-by button to put
the drying machine in Stand-by state. The
drying operation stops.
• Open the loading door while in Stand-
by state, and close the door after you
remove or add laundry.
• Press the Start/Stand-by button to start
the program.
Adding laundry after the drying
operation starts may cause the
dried laundry inside the drying
machine to mix with wet laundry
and leave the laundry damp at the
end of operation.
Adding or removing laundry
during drying may be repeated as
many times as you wish. But this
operation continuously interrupts
the drying operation, and thus
increases program duration and
energy consumption. So, it is
recommended to add laundry
before the program starts.
If a new program is selected by
turning the program selection
button while the drying machine is
in stand-by, the running program
terminates.
Do not touch the inner surface of
the drum while adding or removing
clothes during a continuing
program. The drum surface is hot.
6.10 Cancelling the program
If you want to cancel the program and
terminate the drying operation for any reason
after the drying machine starts running, Pause
the program and turn the On/Off/Program
Selection button; the program terminates.
