2.3. Protection, safety and control elements
Fixed guards: Covers. These prevent access to dangerous points or moving parts. Protect from accidental
machine spattering.
Moving guards:
- Dispenser cover.
- Door with interlock microswitch, door lock and delayed opening.
Overflow. When the bath level is exceeded due to solenoid valve failure, the bath is drained through the
drain outlet.
Thermal fuse to protect the electric heaters.
Emergency stop: a red button on a yellow background, located at the front of the machine. Stops the
machine from operating and opens the drain valve (applicable in models with a load equal to or exceeding
13 kg / 30 lb.)
Electric circuit safety measures: To protect the electric circuit against external malfunctions and prevent
any malfunctioning from causing harm to the operator.
Sound alarm: Among other functions, the acoustic signal warns of possible alarms.
Unbalance microswitch. (Only in high speed models). Additional electromechanical safety to protect
against unbalance of drum load during the spin cycle.
2.4. Safety functions
Bath level control. Allows selecting different bath levels during the wash cycle and controls the overflow
safety and minim level of connection to the heating system and door opening.
Temperature control. Allows selecting the bath temperature during the wash cycle and controls the bath
insufficient temperature and overheat safeties.
Unbalance control. Repositioning of the washer's load if the inverter power control detects unbalance.
Door opening safety. Allows the opening of the door in safety conditions.
Safety measures against entrapment. To reduce the risk of a child becoming trapped inside a washing
machine while playing, or to help in freeing them during the first moments of launching a program, the
running sequence of a wash cycle is as follows:
After giving the start order, a 30-second security time is started during which the drum rotation and the water
inlet operate at short impulses and door remains released. Further information in Sections: Freeing a trapped
person (Chapter 9) and Stopping methods (Chapter 4)
2.5. Characteristics of the controls
Operation of the washer controlled by microprocessor.
Operation of the washer adaptable to the possibilities of the installation and the needs of the user.
Great versatility in individually modifying the content of each program. Further information in specific sections
of the advanced use mode.
Temperature control achieved by the hot and cold water mixer in accordance with the programmed
temperature and the activation of the heating system. Precision of +/- 2 ºC (+/- 3,5 ºF).
Level control achieved using an electronic pressure transmitter.
Series communication between the washer microprocessor and the inverter’s control of the motor.
Multiple controls that assure the safe use of the washer.
