Customer Service Technical Office Gias Italy TECHNICAL NOTE No. 005 LB ­ Apr. 7, 2008 SUBJECT: Washing Machines and Wash & Dryers: functionality check of the electric, electromechanic and electronic components. (Information in Handbook: LB2 ­ Updated on: October 2007 - Update: 1) 1) FOREWORD: This Technical Note resumes the all the necessary procedures, to check the functionality of the main electric, electromechanical and electronic components, installed on the Candy designed washing appliances produced from 2001 until today. 2) SUGGESTED TOOLS AND ACCESSORIES: To easily carry out the checks listed in this Note, we suggest the use of the hereunder listed instruments and tools: · DIGITAL MULTIMETER: the Multimeter must be capable of measuring Voltage (V) and Current values (A) for both Alternated (AC) and Continuous (CC) Currents; the Ohmic values (), the Diodes and Continuity check (with Buzzer). The Multimeter must be equipped with Test Leads with safety plugs connectors (like the Multimeter offered by GIAS in the Technical Note No. 001GE ­ 2001, updated in the year 2006). DIGITAL THERMOMETER: the Digital Thermometer can be either a classic one with wire thermocouple and contact probe, or an "infrared" one with the possibility of connecting a wire thermocouple as well (like the Infrared Thermometer offered by GIAS in the Technical Note No. 001GE ­ 2001, updated in the year 2006). PATCH CORD EXTENSION: managed by GIAS with P/N. 91941051 (Technical Note No. 001GE ­ 2001, updated in the year 2006) is equipped with a magneticthermic main safety switch and allows to carry out "safe" checks on all components of the appliance and the Self-diagnosis as well. It comes equipped with a couple of black/red Multimeter's cables with safety plugs. · · For the easy and safe check of the motorized selectors, potentiometers and electric motors, GIAS has made available some specially designed Test Leads with safety plugs, suitable to be directly plugged-in the Multimeter's sockets (see ATTACHMENT A and ATTACHMENT B). · MAINS CABLE: it can be a whatever original GIAS Washing Machine's spare mains cable, equipped by you with INSULATED (covered) MALE AMP connectors. It's necessary to check the Motorized Selectors. RM - RG © 2007 1 3) FUNCTIONAL CHECK OF THE PROGRAMS SELECTORS: 3a) Check of MOTORIZED SELECTORS with "Short Shaft" and "Long Shaft" (16, 22, 30 positions) The Motorized Selectors (both with Short and Long shaft ­ see pictures) were used on the Washing Machines with mechanical water distribution system (with rod and movable spray nozzle), with all types of available electronics. These selectors include a potentiometer with several (16,22,30) setting positions, mechanically coupled with an electric motor that was used to move the rod connected with the movable spray nozzle. Each Potentiometer's setting is corresponding to a precise and unique ohmic () value, each one being related to a different washing program. The Cuore Control Module is se
