Frequently Asked Questions - OZC 771B ZEROWATT

How do I clean the fluff filter?

Pull the filter upwards, open it as shown in the manual, gently remove lint with a soft brush or fingertips, then snap it back into place. Do not use water to clean the filter.

What should I do when the water container full indicator lights up?

Empty the water container immediately. Remove the kickplate, pull out the container, open the lid, empty the water, and refit. The container can hold about 4 kg of water.

How often should I clean the condenser?

Clean the condenser regularly to maintain efficiency. Remove the kickplate, unlock the levers, pull out the condenser, rinse under running water, and refit. Always unplug the dryer before cleaning.

Which programme should I use for cotton laundry?

For cotton, use the Hang Dry programme for best energy efficiency. Other options include Store Dry or Iron Dry depending on desired dryness level.

How do I set the delay start function?

Press the Delay Start button repeatedly to select a delay from 1 to 24 hours. Then press Start/Pause. The indicator will flash while the delay is active.

Why are my clothes still damp after a cycle?

Possible causes: incorrect programme selected, overloaded drum, clogged filter, or clothes too wet before drying. Ensure the filter is clean and do not exceed 7 kg for cotton.

Can I dry wool items in this dryer?

Use the Wool Finish programme for woollens that have been air-dried. Do not tumble dry wool directly; this programme only refreshes and softens.

What safety precautions should I take?

Do not dry items cleaned with flammable chemicals, foam rubber, or glass fibre curtains. Always clean the filter before each cycle. Never stop the dryer before the cool-down phase unless all items are removed and spread out.

Is it normal for the drum to rotate after the programme ends?

Yes, the drum rotates intermittently to prevent creasing. This continues until you switch off the dryer or open the door.

How can I save energy while drying?

Always spin-dry or wring clothes thoroughly before loading. Dry full loads (up to 7 kg) to save time and electricity. Clean the filter before every cycle.

SELECTING THE PROGRAMME

The Candy Sensor Dry machine gives many options for drying the laundry to suit all circumstances. The table on the next page lists the programmes and the function of each programme.

Note:

The sensor may not detect a small load of small articles. For small loads and separate items or pre-dried fabrics with low moisture content, use the timed programmes.

If the sensor does not detect the item the dryer will only operate for 10 minutes before going into cooldown.

If the load is too large or too wet to tumble dry the dryer will automatically go into cooldown after approximately 3 hours.

In these cases we advise to use a time cycles between 30 and 75 minutes depending on the load size and dryness required, and select high or low heat depending upon the fabric type.

PROGRAMME		DESCRIPTION
Perfect Home	[2014]	Select the degree of dryness that you require. This range from for bath towels and bathrobes, through 2 for items that will put away without ironing, to the programme that leaves the laundry suitable for ironing.
Store Dry	[2014]
Hang Dry	[1964]
Iron Dry	[2737]
No Crease	[8745]	The programme provides a conditioning and anticrease function. The dryer will heat the load for 9 minutes followed by a 3 minute cool down period and is especially good for garments which may have been left for some time prior to ironing, in a linen basket for example. Garments may also become stiffened when dried outside on a washing line or inside on radiators. This programme relaxes the creases in the fabric making ironing quicker and easier.
Wool Finish	[3AHH]	A gentle programme specially created to get woollens softer after air-drying. This delicate warm air cycle, lasting 12 minutes, can also be used to get woollens 'refreshed' after being stored in the wardrobe.
Mix & Dry		This is a special timed program for a maximum load of 4kg (117 min). The default duration is 99 minutes and allows to dry up to 3kg. With this program you can dry together cotton and synthetic fabrics.
Shirts	[6408]	This is a special timed program for shirts of max load of 3kg (78 minutes). For synthetic shirts you have to press the Acrylic Synthetic button. The default duration is 60 minutes and allows to dry up to 2kg.
Rapid 40'	[6716]	The Rapid 40' programme allows a drying cycle to be completed quickly. This is an ideal programme for having dry, refreshed and ready-to-wear clothes in less than 40'. This special programme constantly monitors the temperature in the drum. The maximum load is 2 kg and the programme is suitable for all types of fabrics where tumble drying is appropriate.
Time	[9177]	Time selection includes all the manual time programs: from 30 minutes to 180 minutes. The 20 minutes selection time in only cool air ventilation (Refresh)
