RE-INSTALLING THE CONDENSER
Carefully push the condenser back into the machine, until it is pushed fully home and a “click” is heard.
IMPORTANT:
Ensure all lint and fluff is removed from around the grille seal before closing or water may leak.
The dryer may leak if the condenser is not correctly re-installed
CLEANING THE CONDENSER
CAUTION:
For maximum efficiency, the plates are made from very thin aluminum and are easily
damaged. Do not try to poke anything between the plates or use a hard object or tool for cleaning. At all
times, handle the condenser carefully and avoid crushing the plates.
Remove the condenser (see above).
Flush the fluff from between the plates under running water and carefully shake off excess water
.
ANY PROBLEMS
If the clothes are not dry after normal drying time:
Check that you used the correct heat setting.
Check that you have not set the timer within a cool down period.
Check that the lint filter has been cleaned. A blocked filter will restrict the airflow.
Check that the condenser unit and associated duct work are clean. If blocked, these will restrict the
airflow.
Check that your dryer is heating - below the door to the left side, should feel warm to the touch
after the first 10-15 minutes of its programme.
Failure to heat may indicate the safety cut-out has operated. To reset, simply press the red button at the
rear of the machine. If it has operated then a sharp “click” will be heard.
This cut-out only operates if the airflow is severely restricted so make sure the filter is clean and that all
other restrictions are removed before re-starting.
If the cut-out continues to operate after checking the above points, you should contact your service agent.
Check that the machine has the correct weight load in the drum before stating the appliance.
If your machine does not work check the following before calling a service engineer:
Check that there is a supply of electricity.
Check that the door has been properly closed and the machine is switched on (start button pressed,
if fitted).
Check that the water bottle has been withdrawn from, and–replaced into the machine. The bottle
full warning light should be off.
Check the fuse in the moulded plug.
Whilst the condenser is removed, clean as much fluff as
possible from inside the ducting by reaching a hand into the
machine. In particular, keep the passage from the fan clear (on
the right hand side of the condenser duct).
After cleaning, re-install the condenser (see above).
