The dryer will not start.

Start button selected?

Mains plug plugged in or fuse/circuit breaker checked?

Programme selected? Select a programme.

Dryer door open? Close the door.

Childproof lock activated? Deactivate the childproof lock.

"Ready in" time selected? Programme starts after a delay.

Creasing.

Creasing occurs when you have exceeded the maximum load or selected 

the wrong programme for the type of fabric. All the required information 

can be found in the programme table.

Remove clothes immediately after drying; creasing may occur if they are 

left in the drum.

Water is leaking out.

Not a fault; the dryer may be positioned on an incline. Level the dryer.

Programme duration dis-

played changes during 

drying.

Not a fault. The moisture sensors detect the remaining moisture in the load and 

adjust the programme length accordingly (except timed programmes).

Laundry is not dried cor-

rectly 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.

Fine tune the dryness level. This extends the drying time but does not 

increase the temperature. Your laundry will become drier 

~

 Page 22

.

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 20

.

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 in 

a fine layer of limescale or detergent and care product residue, which then 

impairs its performance. This prevents your laundry from being dried prop-

erly 

~

 Page 29

.

Drying has stopped as a result of a power cut, because the condensation 

container is full or because the maximum drying time has been exceeded.
