The Drying Cycle Duration Is Very Long - Miele PDR 908 HP Operating And Installation Instructions

The drying cycle duration is very long

Problem
The drying process goes
on too long or even
switches off*.
* Switch the tumble dryer off; wait a short while before starting a new programme.
Cause and remedy
The room where the tumble dryer is located is too
warm.
 Ventilate the room thoroughly.
Detergent residues, hair and fine fluff can clog the fil-
ters.
 Clean the fluff filters and the filter in the plinth. See
"Cleaning and care" for an in-depth description.
 If you have removed the plinth filter, also check the
filter insert behind it. Clean it if necessary.
 If you have removed the filter insert, also check the
heat exchanger behind it. Clean it if necessary.
The cooling fins behind the bottom right grille are
soiled.
 Clean as described in "Bottom right grille/airways"
under "Cleaning and care".
The laundry is too damp.
 Spin using a higher spin speed in the washing ma-
chine.
The drum is too full.
 Do not exceed the maximum load size for the dry-
ing programme selected.
Metallic components, e.g. zips, have prevented the
tumble dryer from registering the correct laundry
moisture level.
 Open any zips next time.
 If the problem recurs, dry these items using the
Timed drying warm air programme.
