Troubleshooting; The Machine Will Not Start; Overheating Cut-Out; Drying Takes Too Long - Asko T712C Operating Instructions Manual

Troubleshooting

The machine will not start

Check
• that the door is properly closed.
• that the main power switch is on.
• that the Delayed Start option has not been
selected. If so, the time remaining until the
start will be shown in full hours in the dis-
play (e.g. 5, 4, 3h). To cancel Delayed
Start, press the Start/Stop button for 3
seconds.
• that the machine is not programd to start
at a specific time (e.g. 13.30)
• that the plug is connected.
• that the fuses (circuit breakers) in your
house are intact. Swap two circuit breakers
over to make sure. You cannot always tell
from the outside if a circuit breaker is bro-
ken.
• that the overheating cut-out has not been
triggered (see below).

Overheating cut-out

The overheating cut-out shuts off the tumble
dryer if the temperature is too high, e.g. be-
cause dust is clogging the lint filter.
• Clean the filter.
• Check also that the condensed water
container is not full and, if necessary, clean
the condenser. See the "Care and clean-
ing" chapter.
• The overheating cut-out will reset automat-
ically once the machine has cooled down.

Drying takes too long

• Empty the condensed water container and
check that neither the lint filter nor the
condenser is clogged. See the chapter
"Care and cleaning".
• Prolonged drying times may also be due
to the tumble dryer being located in a room
that is too small and the air in the room
(cooling air) being too hot.
• Make sure that the tumble dryer has ac-
cess to more cold air, e.g. by opening
doors and/or windows.
The washing does not dry, or is too
dry
• The door has been opened while the pro-
gram is running, which disrupts the mois-
ture monitoring function.

Error messages

• If F1flashes in the display, the condensed

permitted program time has been reached.
