Troubleshooting

The machine will not start

Check

• that the outer door is properly closed

• that the main power switch is pressed

• that you have set the programme correctly

• that the Delayed Start option has not been

selected. If so, the time remaining until start

will be shown in full hours in the display

(e.g. 5, 4, 3h). To cancel the programme,

see page 10

• that any plug is connected

• that your home’s fuses (circuit breakers)

are intact, swap two circuit breakers. You

cannot always tell from outside if a circuit

breaker is broken

• that the overheating cut-out has not been

triggered (see below).

Overheating cut-out

The overheating cut-out shuts off the tum-

ble dryer if the temperature is too high, e.g.

because dust is clogging the fluff filter.

• Clean the filter.

• The overheating cut-out will reset auto-

matically once the machine has cooled.

Drying takes too long

• Make sure that the tumble dryer has ac-

cess to more cold air, e.g. by opening doors

and/or windows.
