process goes on
too long or even
switches off. In some circumstances the following message also appears:
Clean out airways .
Please check all possible causes, and open and shut the
dryer door.
Ventilation to the dryer is
insufficient (e.g because it
is installed in a room which
is too small). Open a door or window while
the machine is in operation for
increased air flow.
The fluff filter is blocked. Remove any fluff.
The vent ducting or the
ventilation outlet is
blocked. – Check all parts of the vent
ducting system on a regular
basis (e.g. wall pipe, external
grille, bends in the ducting
etc.) and make sure they are
all free of any hindrance.
– Remove any fluff.
The laundry has not been
spun sufficiently. Make sure that your laundry is
thoroughly spun at the
appropriate spin speed.
The tumble dryer has been
overloaded. Do not exceed the maximum
load for the programme
selected.
Metallic components, e.g.
zips, have prevented the
dryer from registering the
correct moisture level in
the laundry. – Open zips next time.
If the problem occurs again, dry
garments with long zips using
the Warm air programme.
The laundry is
not sufficiently
dry. The load consisted of
different fabrics. – Finish drying using the Warm
air programme.

next time (see Programme
