Normal noises
What to do if ...
If you cannot rectify a fault yourself (e.g. switching off/on), please contact our after-sales service.
During drying, the compressor and the pump generate some noise which is entirely normal.
We will always find an appropriate solution and will avoid unnecessary visits by engineers. Trust
the expertise of the manufacturer and rest assured that the repair will be carried out by trained
service technicians using original spare parts. The contact details of your local after-sales service
can be found in the enclosed after-sales service directory.
When contacting the after-sales service, please quote the appliance's product number (E no.) and
production number (FD) (see the inside of the door).
