TROUBLESHOOTING
MACHINE WILL NOT START
Check
• that the door is closed properly.
• if the child lock is activated. To start the tum-
ble dryer when the child lock is activated, hold
in the
-button for 3 seconds. See Chang-
ing settings.
• that the power switch is pressed in.
• that the plug (if fitted) is plugged in.
• that the fuse in the fuse box has not blown.
Try switching two fuses with the same rating.
• that the thermal cut-out has not tripped, see
below.
THERMAL CUT-OUT
The thermal cut-out swit-
ches off the tumble dryer if
the temperature gets too
high, for example if the lint
filter becomes clogged with
dust. Clean the filter and cle-
an the condenser unit. Then reset
the thermal cut-out by pressing the rubber di-
aphragm at the rear of the machine.
DRYING TAKES TOO LONG
Check that the lint filter and condenser are not
clogged, see the Maintenance chapter. The dry-
ing time may also be long if a condenser dryer is
placed in too small a room or if the air in the
room is too warm. Make sure the dryer has
access to more cool air, for example by opening
doors and/or windows.
ERROR MESSAGES
The character display shows whether a fault has
occurred during the programme. To cancel an
error message after the fault has been corrected
as described below, switch off the machine or
change the programme.
You can check and fix some faults yourself:
Over flow. Indicating that the condensation
water tank is full or that the lower water maga-
zine is full, due to the pump or hoses being
clogged or malfunctioning. Empty the tank and
check to ensure there are no kinks or blockage
in the hose. If this does not help, phone for
service.
Maximum programme duration. After the
machine has run for the maximum time (3
hours) it automatically stops. Check and repla-
ce any blown fuses in the fuse box. To cancel
the error message, switch off the machine or
open the door. If this does not work, call servi-
ce.
Sensor fault. Faulty moisture sensor. This error
message may also appear if you run the machine
with dry clothes or no clothes at all. Open the
door and the error message should disappear. If
not, call service.
If there is some other fault, call service and say
which error message appears in the display.
