Troubleshooting and error codes

Faults Cause/remedy
on the display panel and drying has been interrupted. Empty the condensate container and press the Start button → Page 29. If the optional condensation drain is installed, the drain hose may be blocked. Check the hose for deposits and flush the hose out.
on the display panel. Clean the fluff filter and/or the heat exchanger, then select the Start button → Page 28; → Page 31.
Dryer does not start. Mains plug plugged in or fuse checked? Programme selected? Select a programme. Dryer door open? Close the door. Childproof lock activated? Deactivate the childproof lock. "Ready in" time selected? Programme starts after a delay.
Display panel goes off and Start button flashes. Not a fault. Energy saving mode is active → Page 13.
Creasing. Creasing occurs when you have exceeded the maximum load or selected the wrong programme for the type of fabric. All the required information can be found in the programme table. Remove clothes immediately after drying; creasing may occur if they are left in the drum.
Water is leaking out. Not a fault; the dryer may be positioned on an incline. Level the dryer.
Change in the programme duration displayed during drying. Not a fault. The moisture sensors detect the remaining moisture in the load and adjust the programme length (except timed programmes).
Laundry is not dried correctly or is still too damp. After the end of the programme, warm laundry feels damper than it actually is. Spread the laundry out and allow the heat to disperse. Finely adjust the dryness level – this extends the drying time but does not increase the temperature. Your laundry will become drier → Page 25. Select a programme with a longer drying time or increase the drying level. This does not increase the temperature. Select a timed programme for subsequent drying of laundry that is still damp → Page 23. If you have exceeded the maximum load for the programme, the laundry may not be dried properly. Clean the moisture sensor in the drum. The sensor may become covered by a fine layer of limescale or residues of detergents and care products which then impair its function. Your laundry is not being dried correctly → Page 32. Drying has been interrupted as a result of a power cut, because the condensate container is full or because the maximum drying time has been exceeded.
Drying time too long? The fluff filter may be dirty and cause a longer drying time. Clean the fluff filter. If the air inlet on the dryer is blocked or not freely accessible, this may increase the drying time. Make sure that the air inlet remains unobstructed. If the ambient temperature is higher than 35 °C, this may extend the drying time. Insufficient air circulation in the room may increase the drying time. Ventilate the room.
Humidity in the room increases. Not a fault. Make sure the room is sufficiently ventilated.
Power cut. The drying programme is interrupted. Remove the laundry and spread it out, or restart the programme.
