479536 INTRODUCTION This service manual is designed to show all components and servicing of the DE/DG09 and DE/DG60FA Dryers. These dryers are only sold in the USA and Canada. Overview These models are front-loading dryers, which run a semi analogue/electronic control system. All switching for the dryer is carried out by the timer, selector switches, thermostats and motor, but the auto-dry is controlled by the PCB assembly.

479536 Fabric Care Settings FLUFF – For items requiring drying without heat. Perfect for airing clothes or to freshen up garments that have been packed in a suitcase or drawer. COTTON REGULAR – For drying general cottons such as sheets, sweats and knits. This cycle uses high heat to dry clothes quickly.

479536 Select a drying cycle that matches the type of load being dried. Different fabrics have different drying requirements, so it is important to choose the cycle that best describes the load. If the load contains mainly delicate items, it is best you select the KNITS DELICATES cycle. If unsure of the temperature to select for a load, it is best to select a lower heat rather than a higher heat, e.g.
479536 To restart the dryer, close the door and press START to complete the cycle. Stopping The Dryer The dryer can be stopped during any stage of the drying process, to allow you to check on the load or add/remove clothes. To do this, open the dryer door. There will be a slight delay as the drum slows down and stops.
479536 5.3.2 Timer Operation The timer runs in 2 ways, Automatic and Timed Dry. In automatic, the timer only advances when the PCB powers the timer motor. Power is supplied into the TB connection on the timer. Power for the motor is fed first from the TC terminal on normal operation and from the TH terminal on Extra Care.

479536 Sensing Bars There should only be a minimum of 1Mohm across the bars when dry. The resistance should lower when moisture tracks across the bars. To test the bars, check their resistance dry, then wet your finger and place it across the bars and check for a change in resistance. In Timed Dry, the timer motor is run direct through the timer.
479536 5.3.3 Element Operation (Electric Models) The element circuit has three thermostats and has a motor switch to stop the heating if the motor should fail. Power is supplied to the element circuit from terminal A. From the timer, power is supplied to terminal 15 on the selector switch and then out of terminal 16.
479536 5.3.4 Thermostat Operation (Electric Model) There are three thermostats that control the temperature of the dryer and a hi-limit thermostat that will shut the dryer down if it overheats. The hi-limit thermostat is mounted on the heater cowl and is in circuit with the motor. If it shuts down, the motor stops.

479536 5.3.5 Gas Valve & Ignitor Circuit Operation (Gas Models) The gas valve system has 2 coils, a booster coil and a main coil, which are operated by thermostats, and a safety coil. There are three thermostats that operate the temperature control of the gas valve.
479536 Run Ciruit The ignitor functioning and the flame can be seen through a viewer hole located in the base of the dryer. Use a mirror as shown in these figures. 5.3.6 Thermostat Operation (Gas Model) There are three thermostats in the gas valve circuit for temperature control, the safety, control inlet and drum outlet.
