Why is the drying process taking so long in my Sharp KD-GHB7S7PW2-DE Dryer?

  Anna MeyersJul 25, 2025
  If the drying process on your Sharp Dryer is taking longer than usual, several factors could be the cause. First, the lint filter or heat exchanger might be clogged, requiring a wash with lukewarm water. Another reason might be that the ventilation grills in front of the machine are closed, so open the doors/windows to prevent the room temperature from rising too much. Limescale on the humidity sensor can also extend drying times, so ensure you clean the humidity sensor. Finally, overloading the dryer or insufficient spinning of the laundry beforehand can prolong the process; avoid overloading and select a higher spin speed on your washing machine.

  If your laundry is coming out damp at the end of the drying process with your Sharp Dryer, it could be due to several reasons. First, ensure that the programme you're using is suitable for the type of laundry you're drying by checking the care labels and using time programmes. A clogged lint filter or heat exchanger can also cause this issue; wash them with lukewarm water. Overloading the dryer or insufficient spinning of the laundry before drying can also leave clothes damp; avoid overloading and select a higher spin speed on your washing machine.

  If your Sharp Dryer cannot be opened, the programme won't start, or the dryer doesn't activate, consider these potential causes. Ensure the dryer is properly plugged into the socket. Check that the loading door is completely closed. Verify that you've set a programme and that the dryer isn't in Standby (Pause) mode by pressing the Start/Pause key. Also, check if the child lock is active and deactivate it if necessary. If there was a power failure, press the Start/Pause key to restart the programme.

  If the filter cleaning warning symbol is flashing on your Sharp Dryer, it indicates that the filter seat might be clogged by lint, or there might be a layer causing obstruction on the surface of the lint filter, or the heat exchanger might be clogged. Clean the filter seat and wash the filter with lukewarm water. Additionally, ensure you wash the heat exchanger.

  If the water tank warning symbol is on or flashing on your Sharp Dryer, it may be because the water tank is full, so you should empty it. If the product is connected directly to the water outlet, check the water discharge hose to ensure it is not bent.

  If you notice water leaking from the loading door of your Sharp Dryer, it's likely due to lint accumulated on the inner surfaces of the loading door and on the surfaces of the gasket. To resolve this, clean these surfaces thoroughly.
