Troubleshooting
The machine will not start
Check
• that the door is properly closed.
• that the main power switch is on.
• that the plug is connected.
• that the fuses (circuit breakers) in your house
are intact. Swap two circuit breakers over to
make sure. You cannot always tell from the
outside if a circuit breaker is broken.
• that the overheating cut-out has not been
triggered (see below).
• that the lint filter is in place and is clean.
Overheating cut-out
The overheating cut-out shuts off the tumble dryer
if the temperature is too high, e.g. because dust
is clogging the lint filter.
• Clean the lint filter.
• The overheating cut-out will reset automatically
once the machine has cooled down.
Drying takes too long
• Check that the lint filter is not clogged (see the
"Care and cleaning" chapter).
The washing does not dry, or is too
dry
• The door has been opened while the
programme is running, which disrupts the
moisture monitoring function.
Error messages
• If "Max program time" appears on the display,
the maximum programme time has been
reached. Read "Drying takes too long" in the
"Troubleshooting" chapter to find out what to
do.
• If "Clean lint filter" appears on the display,
clean the lint filter.
• Press the Stop button to close error messages.
• The tumble dryer cannot start if the lint filter is
not in place. The error message "Insert filter"
appears on the display.
