Frequently Asked Questions - WT 711 D GORENJE

How do I clean the fluff filter?

Open the door, locate the fluff filter inside the door opening. Remove it and gently wipe with a soft cloth or brush to remove fiber buildup. You can also rinse it under running water, but dry it thoroughly before reinserting. Never operate the dryer without the filter – it can cause fire.

Why doesn't the dryer start?

Check that the power cord is plugged into a working outlet and the fuse is intact. Ensure the door is firmly closed – push it until it clicks. For condenser models, verify the water tank is not full and is inserted correctly. Also, select a program and press START after closing the door.

Can I dry wool or silk in this dryer?

No, wool, silk, and other delicate fabrics marked 'no tumble dry' may shrink or lose shape. Use the delicate laundry programs only for synthetic or mixed fabrics that are labeled as tumble-dry safe. Place delicate items in a special laundry sack.

Why is my laundry still wet after a cycle?

Possible causes: a clogged fluff filter, poor room ventilation, overloaded drum, or a long vent pipe (over 2 meters). For condenser dryers, the water tank may be full. Also check that you selected the correct drying program for the fabric type and load size.

How do I install the dryer properly?

Place the dryer on a level floor – use the adjustable feet to level it. For vented models, ensure adequate ventilation; you may attach a vent pipe (max 2 m) to direct moist air outside. For condenser models, do not install where freezing can occur. Connect the power cord to an earthed socket.

What does the anti-crease function do?

After drying, if laundry is not removed, the dryer turns the drum periodically for up to one hour to prevent wrinkles from settling. You can stop it by opening the door or switching off the appliance. This anti-crease feature helps reduce ironing.

How do I empty the condensed water tank (condenser models)?

Pull out the water tank (usually at the bottom front), pull out the draining nozzle, pour out the water, and slide the tank back in. The signal lamp will remind you when it's full. Do not drink the condensed water – it is not potable.

What does the signal lamp mean?

For condenser models, the lamp lights up when the water tank is full, interrupting the program. After emptying and reinserting the tank, press START to resume. For all models, the operation lamp indicates the appliance is running.

How do I replace the interior lamp?

Disconnect the dryer from the power supply. Open the door, undo the lamp cover (inside the door aperture), and replace with a bulb of max 10 W (similar type). Ensure the cover seal fits properly to prevent moisture ingress and short circuits.

What is the maximum load capacity?

For resistant laundry (cotton, linen), the maximum is 5 kg dry weight. For delicate or synthetic items, load only up to 2.5 kg. Overloading causes uneven drying, creasing, and longer cycles.

Before Use

Wipe the interior of the drum with a soft cloth and liquid detergent. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents that could damage the surface. Load the appliance with old wet clothes and set the drying time to 45 minutes.

WHEN YOU FIND YOUR APPLIANCE IS OUT OF USE AND NO LONGER NEEDED, TRY NOT TO BURDEN THE ENVIRONMENT WITH IT. CALL YOUR NEAREST AUTHORIZED "COLLECTING SERVICE FOR USED APPLIANCES".

Useful Hints

• Drying a large quantity of laundry is not recommended because it will remain creased and unevenly dried (max. 5 kg of dry resistant laundry is recommended).
• Drying very delicate laundry (woolens, silk garments) is not recommended as they may shrink or lose shape.
• Synthetic curtains, fabrics with metal threads, nylon stockings, as well as lingerie with prevailing foam rubber components or rubber-like materials, should be dried at low temperature setting (delicate laundry programs or time setting programs).
• Put delicate laundry into a special sack when drying together with other laundry.
• When drying is finished, immediately take the laundry out of the drum so that it won't crease.
• When drying laundry in the dryer there is no need to add a conditioner. Conditioners are added only when rinsing synthetics to neutralise static electricity.
• When buying clothes, especially underwear, do not forget that they shrink during washing as well as during drying.
• Clothes marked with a "no tumble dry" label are not suitable for drying in the tumble dryer.
• Energy consumed when drying the laundry is essentially increased if your washing machine is spinning at less than 800 r.p.m. In that case, it is recommended to purchase an independent spin intended for additional water extraction.

Important Warnings

• Only laundry washed with water can be dried in this dryer. Never try to dry laundry washed or cleaned with inflammable cleaning agents (e.g., benzine, trichlor ethylene), as it may cause explosion.
• Never let children play near the appliance or even with the appliance while it operates.
• After cleaning, the filter has to be reinserted into the air duct. Operating the appliance with a damaged filter or without the filter is dangerous and can cause fire.
• Never let children or pets enter (the drum of) the dryer.
• After use, always switch the tumble dryer off and cut the power supply to the appliance.
• All interventions on the machine should be left to an expert. Call the authorized service station. The address is in this manual; if not, contact your purchaser.
• The belt can be replaced by a service engineer only, who incorporates an original spare part with marking OPTIBELT-RB POLY-V PH 1930 5M - 606532.

Positioning and Installation

Your drying machine can be placed in any room with adequate ventilation.

Choosing the Right Place

A - Venting-type Dryer

The most appropriate space is a room with a window or built-in ventilation fan (Figure 1).

In closed, smaller rooms without adequate ventilation, there is too much moisture in the air, drying time is increased, and so is energy consumption.

If during the drying procedure there isn't adequate ventilation in the room, we recommend you direct moist air out into the open by means of a vent pipe (Fig. 2).

The vent pipe can be bought at any technical store (identification code PIPE SP-377628).

B - Condenser-type Dryer

Do not install the condenser dryer in a room where a danger of freezing can occur. Freezing of water in the condensed water drawer and the pump can damage the appliance.

Positioning

This dryer is a self-standing appliance and can stand alone, or it can be placed either together with a washing machine or in the kitchen as a kitchen unit.

If the floor is uneven, use the adjustable feet to level the machine.

Undo the nuts. Rotate the feet to level the machine (fig. 3).

Lock the nuts (fig. 3a).

• Do not remove the adjustable feet. The machine must be placed horizontally.
• Some models of tumble dryers are supplied with vacuum leg braces, enabling the appliance to be placed on top of a washing machine, without hazard of falling or tripping during the operation of either appliance.
• Do not put the dryer on a thick rug, as this may prevent air circulation.

Moist Air Outlet

A - Vent dryer

There are two openings for venting out humid air, which are situated at the bottom left-hand rear side part of the dryer. Depending on the position of the machine, please close down one of the openings with the front cover, which has already been fastened on it, or attached to the drum (Fig 4).

Fix the cover by inserting a coin into the slash and turning it clockwise. It can be removed by turning in the opposite direction.

If during the drying cycle the airing is not good enough, the air-vent tube can be inserted (screwed) into the hole. The distance between the dryer and venting opening (airduct or window) must not exceed two meters, otherwise condensation can accumulate in the tube (Fig 5,6).

1 Decorative cap 2 Vent pipe

B - Condenser-type Dryer

Humidity from the laundry in the condenser dryer is extracted into the air cooler and accumulated in the drainage container or conducted directly into the moist air outlet. After every drying, the condensed water drawer should be emptied, of which you are reminded by the control lamp which is on when the container is full. The air cooler should be cleaned in time (see the chapter Maintenance and Cleaning).

Channelling the condenser tube to the drain outlet

Take off the condensed water drawer tube from the rear side of the dryer and by fitting an elbow on it, channel the tube into the drain outlet. Height of the drain must not exceed 800 mm.

Connecting to Power Supply

The appliance is connected to the power supply by means of a cable cord plug. The wall socket should be earthed (safety socket). Required nominal current and frequency are stated on the rating plate. The wiring should withstand maximum load. Electric connection and earthing should be carried out in accordance with current standards and regulations.

IMPORTANT

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or a qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

The appliance should be placed in a position where the plug is within reach.

Door

The door of the dryer can be opened by pressing the door frame against the machine, as shown in the figure.

The door is closed in the same way. If the door is not closed properly, the machine will not operate.

Be careful not to pinch the laundry with the door, as it might get damaged.

IMPORTANT

The door may be opened during the drying process. The program is interrupted and is resumed as soon as the door is closed again and the START button is pressed.

Preparing the Laundry for Drying

• Sort the laundry before drying according to type of the laundry.
• Do the buttons, zippers, join the strings and pull out the pockets.
• Very delicate laundry (fine underwear with laces) should prior to drying be put in a special sack so that it won't get damaged by buttons, zippers and pins.
• We recommend loading the drum with items of different sizes. Larger pieces of laundry get tucked during drying. So we recommend you take them out, shake them, and then put them back.
• When drying large sheets (bed sheets, table cloths), put 2 to 3 pieces for one load, and when drying delicate smaller items (shirts, blouses), fill only 5 to 6 pieces for one load (max 2.5 kg).
• Never fill the appliance with drip-wet laundry.
• Most clothes nowadays have labels marked with recommended drying mode.

Signal lamp operation

The signal lamp is on when the appliance is in operation.

Prior to drying

• Switch the dryer on by pressing the ON/OFF button.
• Before first selection of drying program, set the program selection knob for 1 second to the position STOP/0.
• Set the program selection button to the desired drying program. The signal lamp adjacent to the selected program is lit (except with the selected time program).
• Press the "START" button to start the program. The beginning of operation is signaled by a beep. The program signal light goes off and the actual humidity level indicator light turns on.
• If you wish to change the selected drying program after the machine has been put in operation, set the program selection button back to the position STOP/0 for 1 second, and after that you may select any desired drying program, and start it by pressing the START button. In case this procedure is not performed, the machine will continue executing the originally selected program, notwithstanding the position of the program selector.
• If the preceding program has been completed (indicator light END and ANTI-CREASE are lit), you may select a new program and start it with the START button. It is not necessary to set the program selection button to the STOP/0 position.

Drying program selection button

The appropriate program is selected by operating the program selector switch, which may be turned in either direction. There is a basic choice of three drying groups:

resistant laundry (5 programs), with automatic moisture measuring

delicate laundry (4 programs) with automatic moisture measuring

preset drying time for both resistant and delicate laundry

The drying temperature is selected automatically by the selection of the drying program, and it is lower for delicate laundry than for the resistant one. During the drying program with preset time the temperature is the same for both the delicate and resistant laundry.

Drying stage indicator

	Damp for machine ironing
[2GHW]	Damp for ironing
[1844]	Mildly damp
	Dry for storage
[4883]	Very dry
	Against crease
	End

The drying stage indicator displays the actual drying stage at any given moment. This is signaled by the indicator light, illuminated adjacent to a particular drying stage symbol. The end of drying is signaled by the indicator light END or ANTI-CREASE.

START button

Starts the operation of the appliance. In case of program interruption (open door, voltage failure, condensation receptacle full), it serves to continue the actual program, after the cause for interruption had been removed.

Drying

Drying time depends upon the selected program and the quantity of laundry. If you selected time defined drying the machine stops upon the expiry of set time. If you selected any of the programs for automatic determination of moisture, drying time will largely depend upon the quantity of laundry and the extent of moisture present in the laundry (spin stage).

Actual stage of moisture during the program is indicated by the moisture stage display, so you at any time may remove particular pieces of clothes you wish to remain damp. When you open the door (add or remove pieces of laundry) the drying program stops and the drum interior is illuminated. When you close the door the light goes off and the program continues by pressing the START button.

In case of voltage failure during the program, the drying operation stops. When the mains supply is back you need to press the START button to continue the program.

Each program is finished by a 10 minute cooling down period, to prevent extracting of hot laundry from the appliance and to improve the anti-crease function.

Drying program is completed when the beep sounds and the indicator lights END and ANTI-CREASE are lit. This indicates that the laundry is dried up to the point of preset moisture stage, or the preset drying time had expired. The drum stops and laundry may be removed from the machine.

In case laundry was not removed after the completion, and the machine was not switched off, it automatically starts a special anti crease program. This program occasionally turns the drum in either direction to prevent the laundry to drop and settle to the bottom and get creased. The program stops automatically after one hour, but it may be interrupted at any moment by opening the door or turning the appliance off.

Signal lamp - condensation vessel

(only with condensation type dryer)

The lamp is lit when the vessel is full, and it stops the drying program. Once the receptacle is emptied and reinserted, the drying program may be continued by pressing the START button.

After drying - condensation type dryer

- Open the dryer door.

• Clean the filter. If the filter is not cleaned regularly, the air circulation is obstructed, the drying time is longer, and it may also cause overheating failure of the appliance. • Reinsert the filter. • Extract the laundry.
• Close the door. • Empty the condensation receptacle. • Occasionally clean the air cooler.
• Disconnect the mains supply.

After drying - extractor dryer

• Open the dryer door.
• Clean the filter. If the filter is not cleaned regularly, the air circulation is obstructed, the drying time is longer, and it may also cause overheating failure of the appliance.
• Reinsert the filter.
• Remove laundry from the drum.
• Close the door.
• Disconnect the mains supply.

Economic use of the dryer

Time and energy will be saved with your dryer, if the following is considered:

• spin the laundry as much as possible – the higher the number of spin revolutions the shorter will be drying time and the energy consumption lower;
• by setting the adequate drying temperature, over-drying of laundry can be avoided and consequently difficult ironing;
• always load the dryer maximally as this is the most economical. At the same time you can dry

the laundry for "dry, ready to be stored" and "moist for ironing" by taking the latter out when it is still adequately moist for ironing;

• by regular cleaning of the filter an optimum drying time with minimum energy consumption can be ensured.
• room in which your dryer is situated should be adequately vented with no higher temperature than 25°C (should be considered with condenser-type dryer only);
• Venting fissures and the opening on the front or on the rear side of the dryer must be free. After cleaning, close the door of the

dryer so that the drum light will turn off. (models with illuminated drum).

- dryer consumption when used at a lower electric power rate can additional save the energy.

For your convenience the chart below indicates approximate values for 5 kg of test laundry at different washing machine spin stages. (program – dry for closet)

RPM/min	extent of moisture		drying time in min		energy consumption in kWh
	1 %	extra	ctor dryer	condensation dryer	extract or dryer	condensation dryer

1600 2	4 47	75 7	0	2,3	2,5

Measured quantities may differ from the indicated because of differences in the type and quantity of laundry, spinning, voltage supply oscillation, as well as the temperature and humidity of the room.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Before cleaning, disconnect the appliance from power supply.

Housing

Wipe the housing with a soft wet cloth and mild cleaning agent. Do not use aggressive cleaning agent which could damage the surface.

Replacement of the lamp

(only some models have it)

- Before you replace the lamp disconnect the appliance from the power supply or turn-off the safety fuse.

- Open the door. - Undo the lamp cover (inside the door aperture). - Replace the lamp. Maximum possible power of the lamp is 10 W.

- Firmly screw the lamp cap again. Mind that the lamp cap together with a seal is well embedded, otherwise moisture can come inside and cause a short circuit.

Fluff Filter

After each drying remove the fluff trap filter from its cabinet located inside the door and gently wipe over the filter with a soft cloth or soft brush to remove the coating of fibers and threads.

Clean the filter cabinet as well.

Fluff trap filter can also be cleaned under the running water, however it must be dried before being replaced.

NOTE

Fluff on the filter is a consequence of normal wear of the material and has nothing to do with drying in the machine. When drying the laundry out in the open, the fluff is carried away by the wind.

Cleaning of extractor dryer

If your drier is placed in a room with poor air ventilation or if it often operates, dust deposit in the interior of the appliance (on the bottom and in the outlet pipe, which could be the cause for malfunctions. So once a year, wipe the dust in the interior of the drier.

Cleaning procedure

– Pull the plug out of the wall socket. - Clean (suck out) the moist air outlet through the opening on the rear or side wall (A) and the vent pipe. - Undo the screws and remove the cover (B). - Clean (with a vacuum cleaner) the bottom of the drier and parts on the bottom. – Reinsert the cover in reverse order.

Cleaning of condensation dryer

Emptying the water tank:

It is recommended to empty the condensed water drawer after each drying thus avoiding the automatic break of drying operation due to the full tank. The activated control lamp will remind you of that.

1. Pull out the water tank.
2. Pull out the draining nozzle, pour out the water and replace the container.

WARNING!

Water from the condenser receptacle is not for drinking!

Cleaning the Air-cooler

Check the air cooler occasionally, and remove any accumulated fluff particles. Pull the handle off the air cooler and remove it. Rinse it on both sides with lukewarm water to eliminate accumulated fibres of the laundry. Dry it properly and reinsert it into its bedding. At the same time

Clean the air duct in which the air cooler is situated.
