For the Republic of Ireland only
The information given in respect of Great Britain will frequently apply, but a third type of plug and socket is
also used, the 2-pin, side earthed type. In this case, the wire, which is coloured green and yellow must be
connected to the earth contact and the other two wires to the two pins, irrespective of colour. The supply to
the socket must be fitted with a 16 amp fuse.
Warning
Do not plug a tumble dryer and washing machine into an adaptor for connection to a single socket outlet.
Plug the dryer and washing machine into separate socket outlets.
Special Electronic System
Your appliance is fitted with a special electronic system that allows your appliance to spin at very high speed
if the load is distributed correctly. Prior to spin, the electronic system allows the drum to rotate in both clock-
wise and anti-clockwise directions to distribute the wash load evenly. If this doesn’t happen, sometimes large
towels and sheets tangle into a ball, the electronic system will recognise the imbalance in the drum and
reduce the spin cycle. This will result in the wash items being more damp than usual.
Where the imbalance is significant and could be detrimental to the appliance the system will automatically
halt the spin cycle. The wash items will therefore be wet.
If this happens, wait until the door safety inter-lock has released the door catch, remove the clothes, spread
them out inside the drum and then reset the appliance to the spin programme.
Note:
If your appliance stops and your wash items are wet or more damp than usual,
this is not a fault.
The electronic system is there to protect your appliance against excessive movement and vibration.
