Possible cause
Fluff is principally the result
of friction when garments
are being worn and
washed. Machine drying
hardly causes any fluff to
form and has been
established by research
institutes to have no
appreciable effect on the
lifetime of fabric.
The load consisted of
different fabrics.
– The inner cover of the
condenser unit has not
been locked properly
and/or the condenser
unit has not been
positioned correctly.
– Fluff has collected in the
condenser unit housing.
The lighting switches off
automatically (to save
energy).
The lamp needs changing. Change the lamp as
Remedy
Fluff is collected by the fluff
filters and can be easily
removed (see "Cleaning
and care").
– Finish drying using the
Warm air programme.
– Select a more suitable
drying programme next
time (see "Programme
chart").
– Ensure that the
condenser unit is
positioned correctly and
lock the inner cover.
– Check the rubber seals.
– Use a cloth to remove
any visible fluff from the
inside of the condenser
unit housing.
Switch the dryer off and
then on again.
