Fault :
Check whether :
The items are unevenly dried :
- the types of textiles in the load are too different (e.g.
sheets together with jeans)
- the laundry has been laid correctly ‘unfolded’ in the
dryer
- the drum is not overloaded.
The synthetic items are loaded with
static electricity :
- the laundry has been dried too much
- you have used softener during washing. By using this
product, you can reduce most of the problems with
static electricity.
The “Tank Full” indicator light is lit :
- the condensate container is full : once you have emp-
tied it, re-insert it correctly, pushing it completely into
its housing
The “Tank Full” indicator light illumi-
nates although the tank is empty :
- the container has been properly inserted : push it in
completely.
- the condenser is tightly locked on the two sides.
The "Empty Steam tank" indicator is
lit up :
- check that the steam tank is empty : if so, re-fill and
ensure it is secure firmly in its housing. The program
picks up where it had stopped.
The laundry will be slightly damp
after a steam cycle :
- you have used a steam programme: in this case, it is
completely normal, and it will make ironing easier.
Fault :
Check whether :
The dryer does not start :
- the plug is in the socket
- the “On/Off” button is pressed in
- the door is properly closed
- the condenser is correctly locked in place.
The drying times are too long :
- the filter in the drum is clogged with fluff.
- the condenser is not clogged.
- the filter and condenser housings are not clogged or
soiled.
- the laundry has been spun enough beforehand
(500rpm minimum, but spinning at 850rpm provides
better drying times).
- the room temperature is not too high, particularly if the
room is small: if needed, open the door or window.
- the air inlets and outlets are unobstructed enough to
ensure correct air circulation.
- the selected drying program does indeed correspond
to the type of laundry in the drum.
The laundry is too damp :
- the filter in the drum is clogged with fluff
- the type of drying has been selected correctly (too
low) : switch to the next program up or increase the
drying time.
- the condenser is not blocked by fluff.
The laundry is too dry, too creased :
- the selected drying program does indeed correspond
to the type of laundry in the drum.
Advice :
Some incidents may arise when you are using your dryer. Here are the points you should
check.
