Drying duration
extended.
■
According to the air cooling principle, a higher ambient temperature will
result in poor drying performance, so the drying time will be extended.
Ensure good ventilation to allow surplus heat to escape.
■
Air filter blocked? Clean the air filter
■
Run the
Fluff Clean
l
Ž
(cold) programme to remove fluff which has col-
lected in the washer drum during the drying phase.

■
Door not closed properly?
■
Pump blocked? Clean the drain pump
The drying result is not
satisfactory (laundry is
not dry enough).
■
Excessively high ambient temperature (above 30 °C) or inadequate ventila-
tion in the room in which the washer dryer is situated. Ensure adequate ven-
tilation 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 maximum
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 washing
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.
■
Air filter blocked? Clean the air filter
■
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 laun-
dry.
■
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
Stop
and pull out the mains plug.
■
Turn off the tap and call customer service.
