The drying cycle duration is very long
Problem
The drying process goes
on too long or even
switches off.*
* Switch the tumble dryer off and on again before starting a new programme.
Cause and remedy
The room where the tumble dryer is located is too
warm.
Ventilate the room thoroughly.
Detergent residues, hair and fine fluff can clog the fil-
ters.
Clean the fluff filters and the plinth filter.
Remove visible fluff from the heat exchanger.
The laundry is unevenly distributed or has rolled up.
The drum is too full.
Disentangle the laundry and remove a few items.
Start a programme.
The bottom right grille is blocked.
Move any objects, such as a laundry basket, away
from the dryer.
The laundry is too damp.
Spin using a higher spin speed in the washing ma-
chine.
Metallic components, e.g. zips, have prevented the
tumble dryer from registering the correct laundry
moisture level.
Open any zips next time.
If the problem recurs, dry these items using the
Warm air timed drying programme.
