Problem solving guide

With the help of the following guide, minor faults in the performance of the
appliance, some of which may result from incorrect operation, can be remedied
without contacting Miele. This will save you time and money because you won't
need a service call.
Please note that a call-out charge will be applied to unnecessary service visits
where the problem could have been rectified as described in these operating
instructions.
The display shows the following messages or faults

Close the fluff filter flap.
The message will go out.
Never open the fluff filter flap while the programme is
running. Opening the fluff filter flap during an active
programme interrupts the airflow. The programme will
also be cancelled. If the airflow is interrupted, the
tumble dryer cannot discharge the hot air quickly
enough. This safety feature of the tumble dryer can
switch off the dryer permanently. If this happens,
contact Miele.
