Unsatisfactory drying results
Problem Possible cause and remedy
The laundry is not
sufficiently dry.
The load consisted of different types of fabric.
Finish drying using the Warm air programme.
Select a more suitable programme next time.
Useful tip: You can alter the drying levels for some
programmes. See “Programmable functions”,
sections “ Cottons drying levels”, “ Minimum
iron drying levels”.
Laundry or feather filled
pillows smell after
drying.
The laundry was washed with insufficient detergent.
Feathers are a natural product and this is quite
normal.
Laundry: use sufficient detergent next time.
Pillows: take out of the tumble dryer and aerate.
Use a fragrance flacon (available as an optional
accessory).
Items made of synthetic
fibres are charged with
static electricity after
drying.
Synthetic fibres tend to attract static charge.
Static charge can be reduced by adding a fabric
softener to the final rinse in the washing
programme.
There is a build-up of
fluff.
Fluff is principally the result of friction when garments
are being worn and to some extent when they are
being washed. Machine drying hardly causes any
fluff to form.
Fluff is collected by the fluff filters and the plinth filter
and can be removed easily.
