DANGER!
RISK OF SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION
Because of the temperature of the linen, there is a potential risk of spontaneous combustion of the laundry load
inside the dryer.
To avoid the risk of spontaneous combustion, it is very important to follow these instructions:
 Finish off drying programs with the cooling phase and do not remove the load until the cycle is completely
finished.
 Once the drying cycle has finished or in situations where there is a power failure, remove the linen quickly
from inside the dryer.
 Do not allow lint to accumulate in critical areas of the machine. Lint is readily flammable.
 No washing machine can completely remove oils from fabrics. Never dry articles of linen that are stained
with oil. Never dry articles of linen containing rubber. Use the dryer ONLY to dry fabrics washed in water.
DANGER!
SPECIFIC WARNINGS FOR DRYERS WITH ELECTRIC HEATING

If the machine is at a high temperature and the fan stops or the power supply is disconnected, the heat
accumulated in the heater box is released through the grille in the top cover as hot air. Therefore:
 Never obstruct this ventilation grille.
 Do not place any object or substance on this cover.
 Do not touch the dryer’s top cover.
DANGER!
SPECIFIC WARNINGS FOR DRYERS WITH ELECTRIC HEATING

When stopping the machine, always shut off the manual gas stopcock. Always turn off the gas heating before
stopping the machine.
DANGER!
SPECIFIC WARNINGS IN PROCESSES FOR DRYING MOPS

Some chemicals used in cleaning processes with mops are inflammable and are not easily removed during the
washing of mops.
For this reason it is advisable to:
 Never dry mops that have not previously been washed in a water bath.
 Ensure that the processes of washing the mops completely eliminates the residual chemicals that they are
impregnated with.

5. EDIT MODE
5.1. Defining editing concepts
Before accessing program editing, it is important to be familiar with the main concepts involved in this process.
Function: Each of the actions performed by the dryer during a program. The functions are always performed
following the same sequence or order of execution.
Phase: The grouping of the functions into the order in which they are to be performed is defined as a stage. In a
drying program there are basically two stages: the drying stage and the cooling stage.
EASY operation. In EASY operating mode the drying phase always consists of a single STEP.
PRO operation. In PRO operating mode, the drying phase may consist of different STEPS up to a maximum of
nine. A STEP can be understood as the sequential repetition of certain functions.
Program: The combination of the drying and cooling phases, whose aim is to dry the fabrics involved.
Edit: Managing the programs.
Editing options:
 Creating a new program
 Modifying an existing program
 Copying an existing program into a new program. The preset programs can be copied.
 Deleting a program created by the user.
It is important to note that Programs 41 to 50 are factory set. The contents of these programs cannot be
changed or deleted. Only the program name can be modified.
Configuration: The SYSTEM TOOLS (Chapter 6) mode groups together the settings that affect the operation
of the dryer. Modifying the value of these settings allows the operation of the dryer to be adapted to the needs of
the users while using the machine’s possibilities to the maximum.
The dryer leaves the factory with the basic configuration of operation options.
This configuration allows the machine to be programmed with many possibilities but with great
simplicity.
Do not modify the configuration settings without knowing exactly what their effect will be on the
machine operation as a whole.

5.3. General observations

When selecting an empty program for programming, the dryer control allows the user to adjust the various
program settings sequentially.
Confirming each step of the programming leads automatically to the next option.
5.3.1. Two operating modes

There are two operating modes that can be selected in the options menu of the System Tools mode (Section
7.1.2).
EASY operation. The default operating mode.
An operating mode with easy to use programming.
The contents of the programs consist of a single phase and a final cooling.
This allows the majority of fabrics to be dried.
PRO operation.
A mode that allows program settings to be adjusted in greater detail.
It allows the programming of multiple phases and the final cooling.
It allows the drying of fabrics that require a complex process.
At each step of the programming, the availability is specified for each operating mode.
5.3.2. Programming a phase
Selecting and identifying the program

Functions programmable in EASY mode and PRO mode.
This allows the user to select the number of the program to be created.
Program number: The dryer will display the numbers of the empty programs.
Program identification: This allows the user to identify the program by name or alphanumeric code.
Duration of the drying

It should be stressed that the selecting the drying time control mode substantially determines the operation of
the dryer.
Duration control by time. In the programming process the drying time is selected (time in minutes).
Once the drying time has ended, the program moves on to the next phase (PRO mode) or on to the cooling
stage, regardless of the moisture level of the fabrics.
Duration control by level of moisture. (Only in machines with a moisture sensor option.) In the
programming process the length of the drying stage is selected according to the level of moisture contained
in the fabrics and the time limit for the duration of this process. The level of moisture contained in the fabrics
is constantly monitored.
When the moisture level falls to the programmed level or the set time limit ends, the program moves on to
the next phase (PRO mode) or on to the cooling stage.
Temperatures
Programming the drying temperatures.
Functions that can be programmed:
Programming the internal temperature of the drum. A function that can be programmed in EASY mode
and PRO mode. It allows the temperature inside the dryer drum to be programmed.
Programming the temperature of the air input. This is a function that can only be programmed in PRO
mode.
This allows the user to program the temperature limit for the exhaust air from the gas burner or for the series
of electric heating elements.
Code no. 576074

Rev. nº 01/0514
Edit mode 30
Mechanical action
Functions that can only be programmed in PRO mode.
Programming the rotation speed.
There are three preset speeds that can be selected in programming.
The rpm for each speed is set in the TABLES menu in System Tools (Section 7.1.3).
Programming the reverse rotation sequence.
There are five preset sequences that can be selected in programming.
Each sequence has three settings:
 Left turn time (anticlockwise direction). Programming in minutes.
 Pause time. Programming in seconds.
 Right turn time (clockwise direction). Programming in minutes.
The rotation and pause times are set in the TABLES menu in System Tools (Section 7.1.3).
Alert beep and new phase

Functions that can only be programmed in PRO mode.
This alert beep can be programmed at the end of each phase.
The duration of the beep cannot be programmed.
Access to programming a new phase.
Up to a maximum of nine new phases can be programmed.
Accessing a new phase situates the programming in the Drying duration stage.
Cool down
End of program stage.
During the cooling stage the heating system is switched off and the rotation of the drum and the extraction
continue operating to reduce the temperature of the clothes at the end of the drying program, thereby avoid
creases in the fabrics and the risk of spontaneous combustion.
Normal cooling. In the corresponding stage, a stage duration and a target temperature are programmed.
The program ends when one of the following conditions is satisfied.
- The programmed time ends and the internal temperature of the dryer is below 60 ºC (140 ºF).
- The internal temperature of the dryer is equal to or less than the programmed target temperature.
Safety cooling. Cooling that is activated when a drying program is interrupted by pressing the key or by
opening the door during the normal cooling stage.
The program ends when the internal temperature of the dryer is at or below 60 ºC (140 ºF).
Very important!
The cooling stage is intended to reduce the temperature inside the drum, thereby preventing creases in
the fabrics and reducing the risk of spontaneous combustion from static electricity.
As a security measure it is highly advisable to program enough time to allow the fabrics to cool.
