Each press of the Delay Timer button       advances the delay setting in 30 minutes increments from
to         and then increments from         to          then          and then after five seconds cancels the

For delays of 10 hours or more the display counts down the time in hours until 10 hours, then the

Time to End

If the delay icon        is off the time displayed is the Time to End for the programme running.
When timed programmes are selected the time displayed throughout the cycle is the actual time remaining.
When Automatic programmes are selected the time displayed is an estimate of the time remaining. When the 
programme is selected the display shows the time required to dry a full load, after around 10 minutes the controller
calculates a better estimate of the cycle time and this is updated during the programme.
The Time to End is displayed in hours and minutes and counts down each minute. 
The colons between the hours and minutes in the display flash to show the time is counting down. 
The display also shows if there is a problem with your dryer, if this occurs the display will show F followed by a fault
code number, the three option lights and the START/PAUSE light will also flash amber (

see Troubleshooting

light, the display will reduce the selected time each time you press and release this button (

see Start and

Programmes

). Each programme that has a timed option has different times available and the selection of

up to 11 drying times will also depend on the heat setting that your have selected.

Each press of the button decreases the drying time.
If you change your mind, press the Sensor Dry button and the sensing level options are available.

If the Timed Dry option is not available the Timed Dry icon will flash and the buzzer will beep three times.
The selected time remains displayed after the programme starts and can be changed during the 
programme if you wish.
