Cause/remedy
After the end of the program, warm laundry feels damper than it actually is.
Spread the laundry out and allow the heat to disperse.
Finely adjust the dryness level – this extends the drying time but does not
increase the temperature. Your laundry will become drier ~ Page 30.
Select a program with a longer drying time or increase the drying level. This
does not increase the temperature.
Select a timed program for subsequent drying of laundry that is still damp
~ Page 28.
If you have exceeded the maximum load for the program, the laundry may
not be dried properly.
Clean the moisture sensor in the drum. The sensor may become covered by
a fine layer of limescale or residues of detergents and care products which
then impair its function. Your laundry is not being dried correctly
~ Page 39.
Drying has been interrupted as a result of a power cut, because the conden-
sate container is full or because the maximum drying time has been
exceeded.
Note:
See also the laundry tips ~ Page 27.
The fluff filter may be dirty and cause a longer drying time. Clean the fluff fil-
ter.
The optimum ambient temperature for drying is between 15 °C and 30 °C.
Outside of this range, the drying time may increase.
If the air inlet on the dryer is blocked or not freely accessible, this may
increase the drying time. Make sure that the air inlet remains unobstructed.
The heat exchanger may be dirty and cause a longer drying time. Clean the
heat exchanger.
Insufficient air circulation in the room may increase the drying time. Venti-
late the room.
Not a fault. The dryer recognizes the load and adapts the remaining program
duration.
Not a fault. Energy saving mode is active ~ Page 14.
Not a fault. If the condensation drain is installed, residual water remains in the
condensation container due to the dryer's self-cleaning function.
Not a fault. Make sure the room is sufficiently ventilated.
The drying program is interrupted. Remove the laundry and spread it out, or
restart the program.
