Unsatisfactory drying results
Problem
Cause and remedy
The laundry is not suffi-
ciently dry.
The load consisted of different types of fabric.
Finish drying using the
Timed drying warm air
pro-
gramme.
Large items of laundry
have rolled up, causing
a problem. The indi-
vidual items of laundry
are still damp.
The laundry could not be disentangled in the pro-
gramme you selected. Smaller items have rolled up
into one.
Disentangle the laundry.
Select the
Large items
programme.
If the
Large items
programme does not appear in the
display for selection, you can activate it subsequently.
How to activate a programme subsequently is de-
scribed in “Supervisor level” – “Opening the Super-
visor level” and “Programme selection/Programme
packages”.
Laundry or feather filled
pillows smell after dry-
ing.
The laundry was washed with insufficient detergent
Feathers are a natural product and this is quite nor-
mal.
Laundry: use sufficient detergent next time.
Allow feather pillows to air after tumble drying.
Items made of synthetic
fibres are charged with
static electricity after
drying.
Synthetic fibres tend to attract static charge.
Static charge can be reduced by adding a fabric
conditioner to the final rinse in the washing pro-
gramme or a fabric conditioner sheet to the load
when drying.
There is a build-up of
fluff.
Fluff is principally the result of friction when garments
are being worn and to some extent when they are be-
ing washed. Machine drying hardly causes any fluff to
form and has no appreciable effect on the lifetime of
the fabric.
Fluff is collected by the fluff filters and fine filter and
can be easily removed
(see “Cleaning and care”).
