Cause/remedy
After the programme has ended, warm laundry feels damper than it actu-
ally 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 26.
Select a programme with a longer drying time or increase the dryness level.
This does not increase the temperature.
Select a timed programme to add extra drying time for laundry that is still
damp ~ Page 24.
Select timed program for a small load and individual items of laundry.
If you have exceeded the maximum load for the programme, 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 33.
Drying has been interrupted as a result of a power cut, because the conden-
sation container is full or because the maximum drying time has been
exceeded.
Note:
See also the laundry tips ~ Page 23.
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 13.
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 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.
