Clothes have dried for too long (overdried).
• Overdrying a load of clothes can cause a buildup of static
electricity. Adjust settings and use a shorter drying time, or
use Sensor Dry programmes.
Drying synthetics, permanent press, or synthetic blends.
• These fabrics are naturally more prone to static buildup. Try
using fabric softener, or use shorter Timed Drying time
settings.
Very large load or very small load. Single large item such
as a blanket or comforter.
• If items are too tightly packed or too sparse the sensor may
have trouble reading the dryness level of the load. Use a
Timed Drying programme for very small loads.
• Large, bulky items such as blankets or comforters can
sometimes wrap themselves into a tight ball of fabric. The
outside layers will dry and register on the sensors, while the
inner core remains damp. When drying a single bulky item,
it may help to pause the cycle once or twice and rearrange
the item to unwrap and expose any damp areas.
• To dry a few remaining damp items from a very large load
or a few damp spots on a large item after a Sensor Dry
programme has completed, empty the lint filter, then set a
Timed Drying programme to finish drying the item(s).
Are you using the appliance for the first time?
• The smell is caused by rubber material that is attached to
the appliance inside. This kind of smell is a rubber's own
smell and disappears automatically after using the
appliance several times.
