Drying
The dryer part of this Washer/Dryer is a
Turbo Condenser Dryer.
If you wish to machine dry your laundry at
the end of a wash cycle, leave the tap open
and the drain hose hooked over the sink or
the stand pipe. During the drying cycle
the machine uses a small amount of
water.
In this appliance, the clothes are dried by
means of a continuous flow of hot air
produced by a turbine which, as it passes
through the drum, gradually carries away
the moisture in the freshly-washed load.
This moisture is then condensed within
the machine when it comes into contact
with the cold water. The condensed water
is then drained away, together with the
cooling water, through the drain hose.
There is therefore no need to provide
special ventilation of the room in which
the machine is installed.
To carry out a drying cycle:
1. Remove all spun laundry from the
machine.
2. Sort the laundiy to be dried from the
load.
3. Important: Load only up to a maximum
of 2.25 kg (51b) of spun laundiy into the
drum. Put it in loosely; the load must be
able to move freely inside the drum. When
drying synthetic clothes, load only up to a
maximum of 1kg (2.21b).
4. Close the loading door.
5. Set the drying time control as required,
using the 0-80 minute «low» sector when
drying synthetic items and the 0-120
minute «high» sector when drying cotton
fabrics.
6. Turn the programme control to F when
drying cotton fabrics and Q when drying
synthetic items. Lastly, turn the
Temperature and On/Off Control to the
"i" position. The pilot light will come on
and the drying cycle will start.
The drying temperature is constantly
controlled by a thermostat in order to
avoid an excessive increase in
temperature.
The duration of the preset drying time
may be shortened or extended during the
drying cycle. This should not be done
however, within the 20 - 0 minute period
because during this time both the
machine and the laundry must be allowed
to cool off.
If for any reason the power fails during
the drying cycle, it is advisable to remove
the clothes as soon as possible. This is
because whilst the drum is standing still
there could be a heat build-up which could
damage the more delicate fabrics being
dried.
If you have to interrupt the drying cycle,
switch the Temperature and On/Off
Control to the "0" (off) position. Wait for
1-2 minutes before trying to open the
door when the Door Safety Interlock will
be released.
