CUSTOMER ADVICE – BEFORE CALLING FOR ASSISTANCE 

 

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 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, the air inlets and 
outlets at the side and back are not blocked, 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 starting 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. 
- Check the fuse in the moulded plug. 
 

A call out charge will be applied for a service visit, if the call could have been 
avoided by following these instructions.
