1. Check dryer is plugged in.

3. Check door is properly closed.

and replace them.
(Caution : electric dryers generally use two fuses or
breakers) After emptying the water container and
cleaning filter during operation, you must press

1. Filter should be cleaned after each load.
2. Check water container is emptied.
3. Select correct cycle setting for fabric type.
4. Check air ventilation grille or rear vents of dryer are
not obstructed.
5. Check clothes are not excessively wet.
6. Check the dryer is overloaded.
This is not a malfunction.
Drying time is estimated and will recalculate throughout
the cycle as it senses the dryness of the load.
Check filter is clean.
1. Check the filter is clean.
2. Check all the items in the dryer are clean.
3. Check all the laundry has been correctly sorted by
fabric type.
4. Check the dryer is not overloaded.
5. Check if there are any paper, tissues or other
degradable items amongst the laundry and remove.
The drying time for a load will vary depending on the
heat setting, the size of the load, the type of fabrics, the
wetness of the clothes and the condition of the filter.
Check the water hose or drain hose is properly
connected.
Check the dryer is not overloaded. Try a shorter drying
time and remove items whilst they still retain a slight
amount of moisture. Use the anti-crease option.
To avoid shrinkage, please follow the care and use
instructions for your garment, as some fabrics shrink
naturally when washed and should not be placed in a dryer.
Please check the filter is in the dryer.
