How do I work a creda 37765x tumble dryer? It only runs for 10 minutes!?

Question

Hi, I have inherited a tumble dryer - make above. I can't work out how to run it more than 10 minutes - there is something about 'delay in hours', but I keep just putting it between the 20 and the 0 I can't seem to make it work on any other setting on the dial.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

Also make sure there`s enough ventilation

Answer 2

between 20 and 0 is the cool setting with no heat.

If it is not working on a heat setting then the thermostat needs to be replaced

This is a common fault on Creda's

I have a different model from you but I got a new thermostat for about £5 off Ebay (instructions included) and 2 minutes with a screwdriver and it was sorted.

Unscrew the back and you will see the thermostat it is about the size of a penny.

Answer 3

Are you sure its not a washing machine ?

Answer 4

It could be a cut out, wen tumble dryer gets hot.... try leaving it and see if dryer restarts once it as cooled down
