7 - INTERVENTIONS
Any work on your appliance must be performed by a Brand-approved qualified professional. When you call,
mention your appliance's full reference (model, type, serial number). These details are shown on the manufac-
turer's information plate (Fig. 1.1).
Check whether:
- the plug is in the socket.
- the door is properly closed.
- the condenser is correctly locked in place.
- the "Start" key was pressed (if the appliance was
not in pause).
- the filter in the drum is clogged with fluff.
- the laundry has been spun enough beforehand
(500rpm minimum, but spinning at 850rpm provides
better drying times).
- the room temperature is not too high, particularly if
the room is small: if necessary, open the door or
window.
- the condenser is not clogged.
- the air inlets and outlets are unobstructed enough to
ensure correct air circulation.
- the drying program selected matches the type of
items in the drum.
- the filter in the drum is clogged with fluff.
- the type of drying has been selected correctly:
switch to the next programme.
- the condenser is not blocked by fluff.
- the drying program selected matches the type of
items in the drum.
- the types of textiles in the load are too different (e.g.
sheets together with jeans).
- the laundry has been laid correctly 'unfolded' in the
dryer.
- the drum is not overloaded.
- the laundry has been dried too much.
- you have used softener during washing. By using
this product, you can reduce most of the problems
with static electricity.
- the condensate container is full: once you have emp-
tied it, re-insert it correctly, pushing it completely
into its housing.
- the container has been properly inserted: push it in
completely.
- the condenser is tightly locked on the two sides.
