        Faults and what to do about them

22

Note:  

If you cannot rectify the fault yourself by turning the dryer off and on, please 

contact our after-sales service.

Drying time too long?

The fluff filter may be dirty and cause drying to take longer. Clean the fluff 

filter.

If the air inlet on the dryer is blocked or not freely accessible, this may 

increase the drying time. Make sure that the air inlet remains unobstructed.

If the ambient temperature is higher than 35 °C, this may extend the drying 

time.

Insufficient air circulation in the room may increase the drying time. Venti-

late the room.

Display panel goes off 

and Start button flashes.

Not a fault. Energy saving mode is active

.

Residual water in the 

condensation container 

despite the dryer being 

connected to the con-

densation drain*.

Not a fault. If the condensation drain is installed, residual water remains in the 

condensation container due to the dryer's self-cleaning function.

Humidity in the room 

increases.

Not a fault. Make sure the room is sufficiently ventilated.

Power cut.

The drying programme is interrupted. Remove the laundry and spread it out, or 

restart the programme.

Unusual noises when 

drying.

Not a fault. Noises are produced by the automatic cleaning of the heat 

exchanger

.

The dryer feels cold 

despite drying.

Not a fault. The dryer can dry efficiently at low temperatures using a heat pump.
