12 TROUBLE SHOOTING

THE MACHINE WILL NOT START
Check that:
• The door is properly closed.
• The main switch is pressed in.
• You have correctly set the required program-
me or the required time in the timed dry pro-
gramme.
• You have not choosen Delayed start.
• The electric plug, if any, is firmly inserted in
its socket.
• All fuses are intact. Switch two fuses over. It is
not always possible to see directly if a fuse has
blown.
• The overheating device has not triggered, see
below.
OVERHEATING PROTECTION
The overheating protection device switches off
the tumble dryer if the tem-
perature becomes too high,
eg, because the fluff filter
is clogged. If this happens,
clean the filter, empty the
water container and clean
the condenser, see Chapter
11, Care and Cleaning. Then re-
set the overheating device by pressing the rub-
ber button on the back of the machine.
NO INTERIOR LIGHTING
Check that:
• The main switch is pressed in.
• The electric plug, if any, is firmly inserted in
its socket.
• All fuses are intact. Switch two fuses over. It is
not always possible to see directly if a fuse has
26
blown.
• The bulb is not burnt out. The lamp is located
at the top of the dryer just inside the door.
Screw off the plastic cover protecting the bulb
and screw out the bulb and replace it if it is
faulty.
EXCESSIVE DRYING TIME
Empty the water container and check that the
lint filter and the condenser are not clogged,
see Chapter 11, Care and Cleaning. Excessive
drying times can also be caused by the machine
being installed in a very confined space and by
the air in the room (which cools the machine)
becoming too warm. In this situation make sure
that ventilation is improved, eg, by opening
doors and/or windows.
FAULT INDICATIONS
Error messages appear in the display text field if
faults occur while a programme is in progress.
To exit the error messages after correcting the
fault as described below, switch the machine off
or change the programme.
The error messages that can be displayed are:
