Indesit Company MACHINE FUNCTION Cold air is drawn into the dryer cabinet interior through louvres in the cabinet base, passes through the large hole in the inner back panel adjacent to the fan and is driven through the element housing on the inner back panel. After passing through the element windings and through holes in the drum back plate into the drum interior, the now warm air is driven through the load to the front of the drum.
Indesit Company Sequence of Automatic Drying System • First 20 minutes, full heat controlled by the timer. This is to pre-heat the clothes and drum before the exhaust thermostats take control. • The timer moves to its next cam position. The timer motor is now disconnected and the dryer tumbles and heats. • When the clothes are dry, the exhaust thermostat opens. This provides a Live supply to the timer motor. The timer moves to the next cam position. • 5 minutes of tumbling with the lower element only.
