consequently keep being actuated (the
YELLOW pilot light goes on and the machine
is stopped). The automatic cutout switch on
the wall may be faulty. Otherwise one of the
three fuses on the built-in cutout switch may
be blown. Work out the source problem and
replace the cutout switch or the blown fuse
accordingly.
d) The cotton sheet deteriorates quickly
1) Again, check that the probe of the
electronic thermostat is fastened correctly
and the air slots on the basin housing are
clean.
Make sure that the distance between the
machine and the wall is correct and enables
correct ventilation. Damage to the cotton
sheet may otherwise follow.
2) Iron on the whole length of the roller
according to the instructions of section 7.
e) The pressure of the roller is uneven.
Make sure that the gas springs are in good
working order as follows: lower the basin
and check that the movement arms are not
loose. Otherwise put the basin at rest, unscrew
the bolts bearing the springs and replace
them. Replace both springs to avoid irregular
basin pressure.
f) The automatic cutout switch on the wall
is triggered now and again.
The appliance is equipped with electronic
devices that provide the means for the
interference filter. However, the use of the
filter entails a current leakage to earth of 5÷8
mA. If similar appliances are connected to
the same line, the threshold of the cutout
switch may be exceeded (as a rule 30 mA).
If so, then install one cutout switch for each
appliance.
g) The machine does not suck moisture
from the clothes
Every 600 operating hours clean the air-
expeller system as follows: put the wall and
built-in cutout switches off and remove the
left side fairing panel. Then take the silicone
tube off after having loosened the strips that
lock it in place and clean it using a cloth and
a vacuum-cleaner. By the use of a screwdriver
remove the screws fastening the tube to the
scroll of the air expeller and clean the fan by
the use of a powerful vacuum-cleaner.
h) Replacement and control of fuses
The machine is fitted with n. 5 fuses divided
as follows:
Three power fuses,
Model Voltage Fuses
160
400V
20A
160
230V
32A
200
400V
25A
200
230V
40A
Two fuses protecting the control circuit,
which are located on the control board and
are marked with the initials F1 - F2. Both are
4A, no matter the model and the power
voltage.
Prior to starting the machine after the
actuation of a safety device, work out the
cause of the fault. Further damage to the
appliance may otherwise be entailed.
8.2. SAFETY DEVICES
The machine features an electronic control
system that governs ordinary functions and
monitors some of the main settings of the
machine.
Apart from such electronic safety devices,
the appliance is also equipped with
electromechanical safety systems that
provide a high protection degree even in
case of failure of the electronic control.
The settings monitored by the machine,
which are indicated by flashing initials are as
follows:
"AL1" SUPERTEMPERATURE OR
FAULTY PROBE
When a temperature beyond 210°C is read
or when the probe is out of order this alarm
message is displayed and an intermittent
whistle-like sound is emitted for one minute.
The appliance remains like that, still on but
under alarm, until the temperature drops
below the alarm threshold. To eliminate this
problem it is also possible to switch the
appliance off and then on again.
"AL2" THE OVERLOAD CUTOUT AT
THE EXTRACTION SYSTEM HAS
TRIPPED
When malfunction or overheating is
detected in the extracting motor this alarm
message is displayed and an intermittent
whistle-like sound is emitted for one minute.
The machine is automatically switched off
and the ironing basin is lifted to its rest
position. This alarm can eliminated only by
repairing and if need be replacing the
extracting system.
"AL3" BASIN MOTOR OVERLOAD
PROTECTION
If the basin motor runs irregularly, this alarm
trips, accompanied by the buzzer. As a
consequence the machine is turned off and
the basin is not brought to its rest position.
Lift the basin to idle position using the
apposite wheel.
To cancel this alarm, reset the appliance
(switch it off and then on again).
"AL4" THE OVERLOAD CUTOUT AT
THE ROLLER MOTOR HAS TRIPPED
When malfunction is detected in the roller
motor this alarm message is displayed and
the alarm buzzer is actuated. The machine is
automatically switched off and the basin is
brought to its rest position. To eliminate this
problem switch the appliance off and then on
again.
"AL5" SAFETY DOOR
If the safety door is opened when the
appliance is on, this flashing message is
displayed. The machine is automatically
switched off but the basin is NOT brought to
its resting position. To exit this alarm status
just put the safety lid back in its normal
13
position. The position of the safety door is
monitored also when the machine is not
working but it is being energised (only
yellow light on).
"AL6" BASIN UP TIME OUT
If after the pedal has been pressed the basin
does not reach its resting position within 10
seconds, this alarm message is displayed
and the alarm buzzer is actuated. The
appliance is automatically switched off and
only by being switched on again will it exit
this alarm status.
FURTHER SAFETY DEVICES
Apart from the electronically controlled
safety systems, the appliance is equipped
with a number of electromechanical
protection devices, i.e.:
1) SAFETY THERMOSTAT, manual reset
type, located at the rear of the machine, on
the control panel side. It cuts off power to the
heating elements as soon as temperature
reaches beyond 220°C. To reset the safety
thermostat unscrew its cap and press the
black pin with a tool until a "click" is heard.
Then screw the cap back in place. Find out
what the cause of overheating was.
2) CUTOUT SWITCH
Disconnects the appliance from the power
mains.
3) SAFETY PUSH BUTTON
Switches the appliance off immediately at
any operating stage.
4) Line and auxiliary FUSES for total
protection of the electric system.
5) ELECTROMECHANICAL OVER-
LOAD CIRCUIT BREAKERS
manual reset type for the protection of the
built-in motors.
6) ISOLATION TRANSFORMER
Physically and electrically cuts off the
appliance from the power mains.
7) Finger safety rod against accidental
burns. It raises the basin and inverts the
rotating direction of the roller quickly
regardless of the roller driving speed.
8) SAFETY DOOR
To be used during black-out events to lift the
basin and so prevent damages to the laundry
and to the roller cover.
9) POWER SUPPLY CORD
3 m long, and built to the latest safety
standards.
