Possible fault
Solution
The dryer does not work at
its optimum or not efficiently.
The lint filter might be
clogged with lint or
detergent residues.
– Usually cleaning the lint filter fixes the problem.
If the problem persists, check all possibilities as
described under "The program runs too long or
stops".
– Open and close the door to turn off the
indicator.
The exhaust duct may be too
long. This is not a fault.
With a long exhaust duct, program times and
energy consumption increase. See Installation
Instructions.
A program is canceled.
The "Check Filter/Vent" indicator flashes.
The fault cannot be detected
immediately.
– Check the possible faults as described above.
– Open and close the door to turn off the
indicator.
– Start a program.
If the problem persists contact Technical Service.
The "Drying" indicator flashes.
The "Check Filter/Vent" and "Cooling down" indicators are lit.

The program is canceled.
The "Drying", "Rotary Iron", "Hand Iron", and "Normal" indicators flash.
A new program start is not possible and the indicators will continue to
flash.
This is a technical fault.
Contact Technical Service.
The dryer is making a thumping or grinding sound.
The sound is caused by the
high airflow rate in the
ducting of the dryer. This is
not a fault.
– To determine if the noise is due to airflow,
temporarily remove the exhaust duct from the
machine. If the noise lessens, the ductwork is
the cause of the noise. Rigid or flexible
aluminum ducting is the best option for
reducing the noise.
If the problem persists please contact Technical
Service.
