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.
Note:
If the cycle is interrupted before it progresses into cool down, parts of the drum may be hot. To
start the dryer again, press START.
Changing Cycles During Operation
If you wish to change the drying cycle you have chosen after the machine has already begun
drying, press your new cycle selection on the control panel.
Fabric Softener Sheets
If you wish to use fabric softener sheets, you must ensure that they are labelled "dryer safe".
Always follow the instructions on the packaging. Do not place them in a dryer with warm clothes,
as there is a chance the fabric softener may stain clothes. Only use a softener sheet once, then
discard it.
Beeps
At the end of the cycle, the dryer will beep to let you know that the load is finished. The drum will
automatically come to rest, allowing you to open the door and remove the load.

Operational Control Sequence

Motor Operation

The motor runs on the 120v circuit of the dryer. 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. If on Extra Care, power is fed from TH on the timer, into terminal 2 on the
selector, out of terminal 4 and back to TC on the timer.
From the timer, power is switched through the hi-limit thermostat and to the start switch, which is
selector terminals 14 to 13. Power is then fed through both the start and run windings on the
motor. The centrifugal switch then disengages the start winding once the motor has started.
In the motors neutral circuit there is an internal overload. The neutral circuit then runs through the
door switch and to the mains terminal block.
