– Check dryer for transport damage.
– The dryer is very heavy. Do not attempt to lift it on your own.
– Be careful to avoid sharp edges.
– Do not lift the dryer by any of the protruding parts (e.g. the door) as they may break off.
– Do not set up in a room that is susceptible to frost.
Freezing water may cause damage.
– If in doubt, have the appliance connected by an expert.

will always find an appropriate solution and will avoid unnecessary visits by engineers. Trust the
expertise of the manufacturer and rest assured that the repair will be carried out by trained service
technicians using original spare parts. The contact details of your local after-sales service can be found
in the enclosed
after-sales service
directory.
When contacting the after-sales service, please quote the appliance's product number (E no.) and
production number (FD) (see the inside of the door). Set the programme selector to

Laundry is not dried correctly or is
still too damp.
After the end of the programme, warm laundry feels damper than it
actually is. Spread the laundry out and allow the heat to disperse.
Finely adjust the dryness level – this extends the drying time but
does not increase the temperature. Your laundry will become drier.
Select a programme with a longer drying time or increase the
drying level. This does not increase the temperature.
Select a time programme for extended drying of laundry that is still
damp.
If you have exceeded the maximum load for the programme, the
laundry may not be dried correctly.
Clean the moisture sensor in the drum. A fine layer of limescale
may adversely affect the performance of the sensors and your
washing will not dry properly.
Drying has been interrupted as a result of a power cut, because the
condensate container is full or because the maximum drying time
has been exceeded.
