OPENING OF THE DOOR DURING THE CYCLE
Laundry can be checked while the drying cycle runs and any
garments already dry can be removed, while drying continues for
the remaining items. After closing the door, press the "Start/Pause"
button to resume machine operation.
Keep the door closed until the cycle end to save time and energy.
DAILY USE
Doing this will keep your machine working at its BEST:
- remember to empty your water tank after each drying cycle.
- remember to clean your lters after each drying cycle.
Refer to the Care & Maintenance section.
1. Plug the dryer into the power supply socket.
2. Open the door and load garments; always refer to instructions on
clothing labels and the max loads indicated in the programme
section. Empty pockets. Make sure garments do not get caught
between the door and/or the door lter. Do not load items that
are dripping wet. Do not tumble dry large, very bulky items.
3. Close the door.
4. Press the "On/O" button.
5. Select the most suitable programme
for the type of fabric in that
load.
6. Select the options, if necessary.
7. Press the "
Start/Pause"
button to begin drying.
8. At the end of the drying cycle, a buzzer will beep. An indicator on
the control panel signals the end of the cycle. Pull the load out
immediately to prevent the formation of creases on laundry.
9. Turn the machine o by pressing the "On/O" button, open the
door and pull the clothing out. If the machine is not switched o
manually, after about a quarter of an hour from the end of the
cycle , the appliance turns o automatically to save energy.
Note that some programme/option accords with "Crease Care"
system. This means that for some hours, after the end of the
drying cycle, the drum rotates at regular intervals to prevent the
formation of creases.
In case of power failure, it is necessary to press the "Start/Pause"
button to restart the cycle.
CARE LABEL
Always check the care labels, especially when placing garments in
the tumble dryer for the  rst time. Below are the most commonly
used symbols:

Tumble dry – high heat.

ranging between 5°C and 35°C to ensure proper operation.

    What to do if my Whirlpool FFT M22 8X3B EE does not start?
    • C
      Carolyn RobinsonAug 7, 2025
      If your Whirlpool Washer isn't starting, there are a few things to check: Ensure the door is fully closed. If a time delay was set, either wait for it to end or switch the machine off to reset it (refer to the Options section). Make sure you've pressed the "Start/Pause" button. Also, check if the Key Lock function is enabled (if your machine has this option) and disable it if necessary; switching the machine off won't disable this option. Refer to the Options section for details.

      Kyle RobinsonAug 15, 2025
      If your Whirlpool Washer isn't turning on, make sure the "On/Off" button is pressed. Check that the plug is properly inserted into the socket, and verify the socket isn't faulty by testing it with another appliance. Avoid using adapters or extensions. Finally, check for any recent power failures and ensure the fuse is switched on.

    What to do if Whirlpool FFT M22 8X3B EE leaves garments wet?
    • D
      Daniel ZimmermanAug 22, 2025
      If garments are still wet after a drying cycle in your Whirlpool Washer, it could be due to a small load, which prevents the automatic programme from sensing the required final moisture level. In this case, select an additional short drying period or the Extra Dry option, if available. For large loads or heavier fabrics, consider modifying the dryness levels to your desired setting, with Extra Dry recommended for ready-to-wear items. Also, if the drying cycle was paused and not reactivated within 15 minutes, or if a power failure occurred, the machine shuts down, and you'll need to set up and restart the drying cycle.

    Why are the drying times so long on my Whirlpool FFT M22 8X3B EE?
    • M
      Martha BradyAug 29, 2025
      If your Whirlpool Washer's drying times are excessively long, it could be due to several reasons. First, ensure you've performed regular maintenance as described in the Cleaning & Maintenance section. Garments that are too wet can also extend drying times; use a higher spin speed during washing to remove more water. Room temperature outside the 14–30°C range can also affect drying time. Also, check that the selected programme, time, and drying level are appropriate for the load type and size by referring to the Programmes and Options sections. Finally, avoid overloading the dryer; consult the Programmes section to verify the maximum load for each programme.
