7.3 ALARMS
The machine constantly monitors the sta-
tus of its parameters and safety systems, and
signals any malfunctions with the follow-
ing messages:
AL0 The drum temperature is lower than
0°C or the temperature sensor is de-
fective. During this alarm, the ma-
chine continues to run and air is
drawn in, but the heating element is
shut off. If a cycle is in progress, all
its steps are cancelled.
AL1 The gas flame did not light up within
12 seconds or the flame has unex-
pectedly gone out during the heat-
ing step. To restart the heating sys-
tem, press the button on the rear
panel. The alarm will disappear
when the flame lights up.
Causes: The gate valve on the gas
feed line is closed, or the LPG tank
is empty.
AL4 The filter access door has been
opened, which shuts down all ma-
chine functions. The LED in the start
button will flash when the panel is
again closed. Push the button to re-
start the machine.
AL5 The pressure sensor is signalling in-
sufficient air flow through the ma-
chine during operation, which shuts
down the heating system. The alarm
disappears when normal air flow is
restored.
Causes:
a) The lint filter needs to be cleaned.
b) The direction of rotation on the
suction unit is reversed (see the
chapter entitled, "Electrical Con-
nections").
c) The suction fan or fume dis-
charge duct needs to be cleaned.
d) Too much laundry has been
loaded into the drum.

7.5 USEFUL TIPS FOR OPERATING
THE MACHINE
Do not load the machine with laundry that
has been cleaned, moistened, washed or
spotted with inflammable or explosive sub-
stances. Wash such laundry before attempt-
ing to dry it.
Before operating the machine, read the in-
structions to prevent injury or damage to
persons or property.
19
Keep inflammable solvents and liquids
away from the machine. Store such sub-
stances in a dry, well-ventilated place away
from unauthorised personnel. Keep clean-
ing products and conditioners away from
children, preferably under lock and key.
Load the machine only with washed fab-
rics that can be dried by machine.
Check the care labels on the garments to
make sure they can be dried by machine.
Do not allow children to play near or ap-
proach the machine. Contact with the drum
or the laundry during operation may cause
burns. See a doctor if this occurs. Do not
smoke around the machine during opera-
tion. Do not remove or bypass the safety
devices.
All service and maintenance operations must be
performed by authorised personnel, only.
To avoid painful burns, do not touch the
glass on the door during operation.
Do not shut down the machine when drum
temperature exceeds 50°C.
If the power fails during operation, open the
door and remove the filter access door.
Restart the machine as soon as power is re-
stored.
To minimise energy consumption in your
establishment, we recommend drying laun-
dry to a residual moisture content of 5-20%
before ironing.
Do not attempt to dry garments that have
not been put through a spin cycle or which
are dripping wet. The moisture content of
laundry loaded into the dryer must not ex-
ceed 120%. If a batch of laundry is too
moist, divide it into two separate loads.
Do not wait for the dryer to cool down com-
pletely before drying another load.
Dryer performances can be conditionated
from humidity in the air.
To measure the residual moisture in the
laundry, weigh it before washing and after
drying. The difference between the two
weights is the quantity of water in the laun-
dry, which is divided by the original weight
to obtain the residual moisture value.
Before moving or servicing the machine and
at the end of the work day, shut off the elec-
trical power and pull out the plug. Be sure
not to pull on the cord. Close the gas or
steam taps.
After every service operation, make sure
that the machine has been correctly restored
to proper operating condition and that the
parts which protect moving machinery and
electrically live components have been re-
turned to their original positions.
