Problem
The drying
process goes
on too long or
even switches
off.
In some
circumstances,
the Clean out
airways
indicator light
still comes on,
even though
the filters are
clean.
36
Possible cause
Please check all the possible causes and switch the dryer
off and then back on again.
Ventilation to and from the dryer
may be insufficient (e.g because
it is installed in a small room).
This has caused the temperature
in the room to rise sharply.
The opening in the hygiene filter
panel is blocked.
It is possible for the hygiene filter
to be heavily soiled without the
warning message coming on.
Please see "Cleaning and care,
Hygiene filter" for details.
The fluff filters are clogged up
with fluff or were still wet when
they were replaced.
Detergent residues, hair and fine
fibres can block up the
condenser unit.
The laundry has not been spun
sufficiently.
The tumble dryer has been
overloaded.
Metallic components, e.g. zips
have prevented the dryer from
registering the correct moisture
level in the laundry.
Remedy
Open a door or window
while the dryer is in
operation for increased air
flow.
– Remove any objects that
are blocking the vents.
– Take out the old filter and
replace it with a new one.
– Always keep the area
around the dryer free of
dust and fluff.
– Remove any fluff.
– The fluff filters must be
completely dry.
Check the condenser unit
from time to time and clean
it if necessary.
Make sure that your laundry
is thoroughly spun at the
appropriate spin speed.
Do not exceed the
maximum load for the
programme selected.
– Open zips next time.
If the problem occurs again,
dry garments with long zips
using the Warm air
programme (timed drying).
