Faults
Cause/remedy
Appliance does not start.
■
Check the mains plug and fuse.
■
Check whether a programme has been selected.
■
Check that the appliance door is closed.
■
Check whether the childproof lock is activated. If it is, deactivate the child-
■
Check whether a "Ready in" time has been selected. If it has, this will delay
the start of a selected programme.
Creasing.
■
Load exceeded or incorrect programme selected for a type of fabric. All the
required information can be found in the programme table.
■
Remove laundry from the drum as soon as the drying programme has fin-
ished. Creasing occurs when clothing is left in the drum.
Water is leaking out.
The appliance may be positioned at an angle. Level the appliance.
Programme duration dis-
played changes as dry-
ing progresses.
Not a fault. The moisture sensor measures the residual moisture in the laundry
and adjusts the programme duration (with the exception of timed programmes).
Laundry is not dried
properly or is still too
damp.
■
After the programme has ended, warm laundry feels damper than it actu-
ally is. Spread out the laundry and let it cool down.
■
Adjust the drying time or increase the degree of dryness. This will extend
the drying time but the temperature will remain the same.
■
Select a timed programme to add extra drying time for laundry that is still
damp.
■
Select a timed programme for a small load.
■
Do not exceed the maximum load for a programme.
■
Clean the moisture sensor in the drum. The sensor may become covered in
a fine layer of limescale or detergent and care product residue, which then
impairs its performance.
■
Drying has been interrupted as a result of a power cut, because the conden-
sation container is full or because the maximum drying time has been
exceeded.
Note:
Drying taking too long.
■
The appliance may have fluff in it. This will increase the drying time.
Remove the fluff.
■
If the air inlet on the appliance is blocked or not fully open, the drying time
may increase. Make sure that the air inlet remains unobstructed.
■
If the ambient temperature is lower than 15 °C or higher than 30 °C, this
may increase the drying time.
■
Inadequate air circulation in the room may increase the drying time. Make
sure the room is adequately ventilated.
Humidity in the room is
increasing.
Make sure the room is sufficiently ventilated.
