For safety the dryer has a maximum programme time of 5 hours. If an
automatic programme has not sensed the required final moisture in this time
the dryer will complete the programme and stop. Check the above points
and run the programme again, if the results are still damp, contact the
Service Centre (
see Service
).

Try turning the dryer off and remove the plug. Then replace the plug and
turn on, if a fault is still shown when you turn the dryer back on: note the
lights that are on (not flashing) and contact the Service Centre (
see
Service
