What to do if ...

ʠ

Programme terminates shortly

Ambient temperature greater than 5°C?
Is the appliance loaded with the laundry?

Water is leaking out.

Make sure the dryer is level.
Clean the heat exchanger seal.

Remove articles of clothing immediately after the end 
of the programme, hang up and pull into shape.

 page 7.

ʠ

Laundry is not dried correctly or is 
still too damp.

After the end of the programme, warm laundry feels 
damper than it actually 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.

Select a programme with a longer drying time or increase 
the drying level. This does not increase the temperature.

Select a time programme for extended drying of laundry 
that is still damp.

If you have exceeded the maximum load for the 
programme, the laundry may not be dried correctly.

Clean the moisture sensor in the drum. A fine layer of 
limescale may adversely affect the performance of the 
sensors and your washing will not dry properly.

Drying has been interrupted as a result of a power cut, 
because the condensate container is full or because the 
maximum drying time has been exceeded.

ʠ

Power failure.

Remove the laundry from the dryer immediately and 
spread out. This allows the heat to dissipate. Be careful 
as the door, the drum and the laundry may be hot.
