Possible causes / Solutions:

•  The plug has not been inserted far enough into the socket to make contact.

•  There has been a power cut.

•  The the fuse has blown. Try connecting another appliance to the same socket.

•  If an extension cord is used, try connecting the dryer plug directly into the socket.

•  The door has not been closed properly.

•  The programme has not been set correctly

 (see How to carry out a drying cycle)

.

• The 

START/PAUSE

 button has not been pressed 

(see How to carry out a drying 

cycle)

.

•  A delayed start time has been set 

(see Programmes and options)

.

• The 

START/PAUSE

 button has been pressed; a short delay follows before the dryer 

starts running. Wait for the drying cycle to start; do not press the 

START/PAUSE

 

button otherwise the dryer switches to the pause mode and the drying cycle will not 

start.

•  The filter has not been cleaned 

(see Care and maintenance)

.

•  The heat setting is not suited to the type of fabric to be dried

 (see Programmes and 

options)

.

•  An incorrect drying time was selected for the type of load 

(see Laundry)

.

•  The flexible ventilation hose may be blocked 

(see Installation).

•  The air inlet may be blocked or obstructed 

(see Installation).

(see Installation).

•  The items are too wet 

(see Laundry)

.

•  The dryer is overloaded 

(see Laundry)

.

!

  For safety reasons, the dryer programmes last a maximum of 4 hours. If an 

automatic programme has not detected the final dampness level required in this 

interval, the dryer completes the programme and stops. Check the above points and 

repeat the programme; if the items are still damp, contact the Technical Assistance 

Centre 

(see Assistance)

.

•  This is normal, especially if the dryer has not been used for a long time. If the noise 

persists during the entire cycle, contact the Technical Assistance Centre.

•  The dryer has gone into standby mode to save power. This occurs if you have left 

the dryer on or have had a power cut. It occurs after 30 minutes: 

- if you leave the dryer without starting a programme; 

- after your drying programme has finished.

Turn the knob to the desired program to restart dryer operation (to start the program 
press 

START/PAUSE

). The 

OFF

 position switches off the dryer

If you feel that the dryer is not working properly, consult the following troubleshooting suggestions before contacting the Technical 
Assistance Centre 

(see Assistance).

Problem:

The dryer does not start.

The drying cycle does not start.

Drying times are too long.

The programme is finished but the 

items are damper than expected.

The dryer is noisy during the first 

few minutes of operation.

The lights on the dryer control 

panel are off although the dryer is
