Problem Possible cause Remedy *
The drying
process goes
on too long or
even switches
off.
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.
–
Detergent residues, hair
and fine fluff can clog the
fluff filters and the fine
filters.
– The cooling ribs can be
clogged.
–
Clean the fluff filters and fine
filter.
–
Remove any visible fluff:
. . . From the heat exchanger
unit, bottom left, behind the flap
in the heat exchanger cavity
(see "Cleaning and care").
. . . From the cooling fins
behind the grille, bottom right
(see this section).
The cool air intake (bottom
right grille) is blocked.
Move any objects, such as a
laundry basket, away from the
grille.
The fluff filters and fine filter
were wet when replaced.
The fluff filters and fine filter must
be dry.
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).
* Switch the dryer off and then on again before starting the programme.
