en Faults and what to do about them

Note: If you cannot rectify the fault yourself by turning the dryer off and on, please
contact our after-sales service.
Laundry is not dried cor-
rectly or is still too damp.
■ After the end of the programme, warm laundry feels damper than it actually
is. Spread the laundry out and allow the heat to disperse.
■ Finely adjust the dryness level – this extends the drying time but does not
increase the temperature. Your laundry will become drier ~ Page 26.
■ Select a programme with a longer drying time or increase the drying level.
This does not increase the temperature.
■ Select a timed programme for subsequent drying of laundry that is still
damp ~ Page 25.
■ If you have exceeded the maximum load for the programme, the laundry
may not be dried properly.
■ Clean the moisture sensor in the drum. The sensor may become covered by
a fine layer of limescale or residues of detergents and care products which
then impair its function. Your laundry is not being dried correctly
~ Page 35.
■ Drying has been interrupted as a result of a power cut, because the conden-
sate container is full or because the maximum drying time has been
exceeded.
Note: See also the laundry tips ~ Page 24.
Drying time too long? ■ The fluff filter may be dirty and cause a longer drying time. Clean the fluff fil-
ter.
■ If the air inlet on the dryer is blocked or not freely accessible, this may
increase the drying time. Make sure that the air inlet remains unobstructed.
■ The optimum ambient temperature for drying is between 15 °C and 30 °C.
Outside of this range, the drying time may increase.
■ Insufficient air circulation in the room may increase the drying time. Venti-
late the room.
Display panel goes off
and Start button flashes.
Not a fault. Energy saving mode is active ~ Page 12.
Residual water in
the condensate con-
tainer despite the dryer
being connected to
the condensation drain*.
Not a fault. If the condensation drain is installed, residual water remains in
the condensate container due to the dryer's self-cleaning function.
Humidity in the room
increases.
Not a fault. Make sure the room is sufficiently ventilated.
Power cut. The drying programme is interrupted. Remove the laundry and spread it out,
or restart the programme.
Unusual noises when
drying.
Not a fault. Noises are produced by the automatic cleaning of the heat
exchanger ~ Page 34.
The dryer feels cold
despite drying.
Not a fault. The dryer can dry efficiently at low temperatures using a heat pump.
