The control module is located behind the right hand side panel and there is a service port behind the
plinth cover that allows attachment of a computer, Smart Card Reader or Handheld Device to
programme the Control Module.
The control module can be programmed with the relevant settings file if the module is replaced, the
settings file becomes corrupted or if an updated file becomes available.
Each of the sensing programmes has a maximum time of approximately 270 minutes. (Actual time
will vary slightly due to programme selected).
Auto Sensing
After the Automatic cycle has started, the machine’s thermistor and conductivity sensor continually
monitor the dampness of the drying clothes. Once a final dry time has been determined, the display
will update, and the cycle will continue finishing with a 3 minute cool down period. The time taken to
update will vary depending on the Programme set, load and the ambient temperature.
If the display counts down to 3 minutes and the clothes are not at the required dryness level, the
display will hold at 3 minutes, depending on the programme in progress and the material being dried,
the dryer will either wait until the correct dryness level is reached and move to the cool down period,
or wait until the machines sensors are able to recalculate the dryness time and the display will
update accordingly.
If, after the maximum programme time of approximately 270 minutes, the clothes are still not dry,
the programme advances to cool tumble and completes the programme.
Note 1:
No fault is indicated if this occurs.
Note 2:
The actual time out period will vary slightly depending on the programme and dryness level
set. Under normal drying conditions providing at the start of the cycle the water container is empty,
