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
filters.
–
Remove any visible fluff:
. . . From the heat exchanger
unit, bottom left (see "Cleaning
and care").
. . . From the cooling fins
behind the grille, bottom right
(see this section).
The cool air intake panel is
blocked.
– Move any objects, such as a
laundry basket, away from the
panel.
The fluff filters and fine
filters were wet when
replaced.
– The fluff filters and fine filters
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.
