• The smell of paint, varnish, cleaning agents, and other household items
could have circulated in the air and entered the dryer. If you notice such
a smell, ventilate completely before using the dryer.
• If drying in an enclosed area, the dryer could cause the ambient
temperature to rise. Accordingly, make sure to open a window and
ventilate the area.
• Do not attempt to dry wet items after leaving them in the washing
machine or dryer for a long time.
• The load is too small. Throw in few additional items like towels and try
drying again.
• Always make sure the lint filter is clean before putting items into the
dryer. When drying items that generate a large amount of lint, you may
need to clean the lint filter in the middle of a cycle.
• Some fabrics (such as white towels) causes more lint and should be
dried separately from fabrics that lint attaches easily (such as black
linen pants).
• Check the inside of the pockets to make sure they are empty before
drying.
• Heat pump dryers circulate ambient air inside and outside the dryer
during the drying process to cool the system. Using the dryer in a poorly
ventilated area may, depending on the operating environment, raise the
ambient humidity level and/or cause a damp, soggy smell to develop.
Ensure proper ventilation when using the dryer.
• Check the draining hose for twists and kinks.
Straighten out the hose if it is twisted or kinked and securely connect it
to the drain on the floor.
• Check to see if the draining hose is frozen.
If the hose is frozen, submerge it in warm water to allow the water inside
the hose to melt and drain out. Reconnect the hose and check for proper
draining.
• If the inside of the dryer is frozen, remove the water tank from the dryer
and add about 400 ml of warm water to the inner space where the
water tank was. After about an hour, run the dryer to make sure it drains
normally.
