Cause/remedy
The fluff filter may be dirty and cause a longer drying time. Clean the fluff fil-
ter.
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 optimum ambient temperature for drying is between 15 °C and 30 °C.
Outside of this range, the drying time may increase.
Insufficient air circulation in the room may increase the drying time. Venti-
late the room.
Not a fault. Energy-saving mode is active ~ Page 12.
Not a fault. If the condensation drain is installed, residual water remains in
the condensate container due to the dryer's self-cleaning function.
Not a fault. Make sure the room is sufficiently ventilated.
The drying programme is interrupted. Remove the laundry and spread it out,
or restart the programme.
Not a fault. Noises are produced by the automatic cleaning of the heat
exchanger ~ Page 31.
Not a fault. The dryer can dry efficiently at low temperatures using a heat pump.
