Help! I THINK MY TUMBLE DRYER HAS GONE WRONG If you think your Tumble Dryer has gone wrong, look here for some hints and tips. If your query is still not answered, please call us or e-mail.
I’VE SWITCHED IT ON BUT NOTHING IS HAPPENING! You must remember to set the PROGRAM (Economy or REGULAR) but most importantly you must remember to set the time. If the timer is not set, the Tumble Dryer will not run. Check also the door is shut properly, as there is a safety interlock that will prevent use if the door is open. Check for any clothes that may be preventing the door from closing properly.
IT SEEMS HOT IN USE, IS THAT NORMAL? Of course your new Tumble Dryer will get hot in use, but the level of heat on the outside should not be excessive. Check for any obstructions of the exhaust port and/or ventilation hose. Check that you have left at least 15cms clearance around the sides and top and rear. Check that the ventilation hose has not become punctured and so hot air is exhausting unexpectedly from the wall of the hose. IF THE HOSE REQUIRES REPLACING, CHECK OUR WEBSITE OR USE THE ORDER FORM THAT ACCOMPANIES THIS BOOKLET.
THE WINDOW DOESN’T SEEM AS CLEAR AS WHEN THE TUMBLE DRYER WAS NEW In use, you may experience condensation, this is entirely normally. Additionally, over time the material may slightly craze or lose it’s transparence; this is an inevitability and is neither a cause for concern or a cause for return.
