Problem Possible cause Remedy
The drying
process goes on
too long or even
switches off.
The request to clean the
airways may appear in the
display.
Please check all the possible
causes and switch the dryer off
and then back on again.
Ventilation to and from the
dryer may be insufficient,
e.g. because it is installed
in a room which is too
small. This can cause the
temperature in the room to
rise sharply.
–
Open a door or window while
the dryer is in operation for
increased air flow.
The vents below the door
are blocked.
– Remove any objects that are
blocking the vents.
The fluff filters are clogged
up.
See "Cleaning and care".
– Remove any fluff.
The fluff filters were wet
when replaced.
– The fluff filters must be
completely dry.
Detergent residues, hair
and fine fibres can block
the condenser unit.
See "Cleaning and care".
– The condenser unit must be
checked and cleaned if
necessary.
The laundry has not been
spun sufficiently.
–
Make sure that your laundry is
thoroughly spun at the
appropriate spin speed in the
washing machine.
The tumble dryer has been
overloaded.
–
Do not exceed the maximum
load for the programme
selected.
Metallic components, e.g.
zips have prevented the
dryer from registering the
correct moisture level in the
laundry.
–
Open zips next time.
–
If the problem occurs again,
dry garments with long zips
using the Warm air
programme (timed drying).
