required to dry a full load, after around 10 minutes the
controller calculates a better estimate of the cycle time.

flash to show that the time is counting down.
The display also shows if there is a problem with your
dryer, if this occurs the display will show F followed by a
fault code number (
see Troubleshooting ).

ignored, as there is no need to empty the water container).

message will take a few seconds to go out.
To avoid this always empty the water container each time
you use the dryer (
see Maintenance ).
