Cause and remedy

 Ventilate the room thoroughly.
Detergent residues, hair and fine fluff can clog the fil‐
ters.
 Clean the fluff filters and the plinth filter.
 Remove any visible fluff:
. . . bottom left, from behind the panel in the heat
exchanger cavity (see "Cleaning and care");
. . . from the cooling fins behind the grill bottom
right (see the end of this section).
The cool air intake (bottom right grille) is blocked.
 Move any objects, such as a laundry basket, away
from the grille.
The fluff filters and the plinth filter were wet when re‐
placed.
 The fluff filters and the plinth filter must be dry.
The laundry is too damp.
 Make sure that your laundry is thoroughly spun at
the appropriate spin speed in the washing ma‐
chine.
The tumble dryer has been overloaded
 Do not exceed the maximum load for the pro‐
gramme selected.
Metallic components, e.g. zips have prevented the
dryer from registering the correct moisture level.
 Open the zips next time.

Warm air timed drying programme.
* Before starting another programme:
