BEKO DRVS62 Wattage when drying

[andy_from_ireland]

Ive been observing the wattage my BEKO Drvs62 Tumble Drier uses (as you do!). I have one of these plug in Digital energy meters. When I set the tumble dryer on Cottons ready to wear it reads 1573w and then after 30 seconds it reads 2103w well thats fine because cottons should have high heat (2kw) element power. – If I put the Tumble dryer on ‘Delicates’ thats working fine too 1573w so thats low heat thats fine

– however if i put the Tumble Dryer on ‘Synthetics ready to wear’ according to the instructions it is supposed to be drying clothes at low temperature, but the digital energy meter reports 1573w and then 30 seconds later goes to 2103w. Why is the tumble dryer drying at high heat (2kw) for synthetics?

Anyone know why its doing that?

does not matter as long as it is regulating the temp inside the drum
