The drying result is not
satisfactory (laundry is
not dry enough).
■
Excessively high ambient temperature (above 30 °C) or inadequate venti-
lation in the room in which the washer dryer is situated. Ensure adequate
ventilation to allow surplus heat to escape.
■
The laundry has not been spun well enough before drying. Always set the
highest selectable spin speed for the particular washing programme.
■
Washer dryer overloaded: Observe the recommendations for the maxi-
mum load in the programme table and on the load display. Do not overload
the washer dryer, as the maximum load for the drying phase is less than
the maximum load for the wash cycle. Unload the washer dryer after wash-
ing with the maximum load and divide the laundry into two drying cycles.
■
The power supply voltage is too low (below 200 V) – provide a suitable
power supply.

Thick multilayered textiles or textiles with thick fillings dry easily on the sur-
face, but not inside. This equalisation process may take longer. For these
types of textiles, select the timed drying programmes.
When the door is opened,
you will notice that a small
amount of water drips
onto the dried laundry.
■
The drying time is reduced for a smaller load. Some residual moisture may
remain in the dryer system. If the door is opened quickly, a suction effect is
generated which causes the moisture to drip out of the dryer system.
■
Open the door slowly. Avoid wrenching the door open.
If a fault cannot be rectified (switching the machine on and off) or a repair is required:
■
Set the programme selector to
Ú
Off
and pull out the mains plug.
■
Turn off the tap and call customer service.
