Alarms - Electrolux WMD1050 Service Manual

ALARMS

User alarm display
Control of the alarm system can be configured; according to the model, therefore, some or all of the
alarms may be displayed to the user.
Normally, all alarms are displayed for the used, with the exception of:
♦ E61 (insufficient heating during the washing phase)
♦ E83 (error in selector reading)
Operation of the alarm system during normal use
The alarms are enabled during the execution of the washing programme, with the exception of alarms
associated with configuration and the power supply (voltage/frequency), which are also displayed during the
programme selection phase.
The door can normally be opened (except where specified) when an alarm condition has occurred on
condition that:
•
The level of the water in the tub is below 1st level
•
The temperature of the water is lower than 40°C.
Certain alarm conditions require that a drain phase be performed before the door can be opened:
•
Cooling water fill if the temperature is in excess of 60°C.
•
Drain until closure of both pressure switch contacts (1st level and anti-boiling safety system) on EMPTY
within a maximum of 5 minutes.
Alarms displayed during normal operation
The type of alarm condition is displayed to the user by the repeated flashing of the
END OF CYCLE LED (0.4 seconds lit, 0.4 seconds off, with an interval of 2.5
seconds between sequences). This LED is featured on ALL MODELS, though
configured in different positions.
All the LEDs flash to indicate a configuration error.
If, for example, the user should forget to close the door, the
control system will detect alarm E41 about 15 seconds after
the start of the cycle; the cycle remains in PAUSE mode and
the LED flashes repeatedly in the sequence shown in the
table.
The four flashes indicate the first of the two digits of alarm E41
(the alarms for a given function are grouped in "families").
In this case, after closing the door, it is sufficient to press
START in order to re-start the programme.
