Programme duration displayed
changes as drying progresses.
Not a fault. The moisture sensor measures the residual moisture in the
laundry and adjusts the programme duration (with the exception of timed
programmes).
Laundry is not dried properly or
is still too damp.
■
After the programme has ended, warm laundry feels damper than it
actually is. Spread out the laundry and let it cool down.
■
Adjust the drying time or increase the degree of dryness. This will
extend the drying time but the temperature will remain the same.
■
Select a timed programme to add extra drying time for laundry that is
still damp.
■
Select a timed programme for a small load.
■
Do not exceed the maximum load for a programme.

Clean the moisture sensor in the drum. The sensor may become cov-
ered in a fine layer of limescale or detergent and care product resi-
due, which then impairs its performance.

structed.
