The drying process takes a long time.
Problem
The drying process
goes on for too long or
even switches off.*
* Switch the tumble dryer off and on again after a short waiting period before
starting a new programme.
Possible cause and remedy
You may be asked again to clean the air channels/
filters.
Check all of the possible causes described below.
Detergent residues, hair and fine fluff can clog the
filter.
Clean the filters (see "Cleaning and care").
Clean the air flow area.
You can remove the cover in the drum loading area
to clean the air flow area underneath.
The ducting or its openings are clogged, e.g. with hair
or fluff.
Regularly check and clean all components of the
ducting (e.g. wall pipe, external grille, bends,
elbows, etc.).
The air supply is not adequate in small, unventilated
rooms.
While drying, open the door or a window for
ventilation.
The laundry is too damp.
Spin the laundry using a higher spin speed in the
washing machine.
The drum has been overloaded.
Do not exceed the maximum load for the
programme selected.
Metallic components, e.g. zippers, have prevented
the dryer from registering the correct moisture level.
Open the zippers next time.
If the problem occurs again, dry these items using
the Timed drying warm air programme.
