The machine will not start

Check
• that the door is properly closed.
• that the main power switch is on.
• that any plug is connected.
• that the fuses (circuit breakers) in your house

are intact. Flip the dryer breaker off and then
back on to make sure. You can not always tell
from the outside if the circuit breaker has
tripped.

• that the overheating cut-off has not been

triggered (see below).

• that the lint filter is in place and is clean.

Overheating cut-off

The overheating cut-off shuts off the tumble dryer
if the temperature is too high, caused by lint
clogging the lint filter, for instance.
• Clean the lint filter.
• Check that the condenser is clean. Clean it if

necessary. See the "Care and cleaning"
chapter.

• The overheating cut-off will reset automatically

once the machine has cooled down.

Drying takes too long

• Check that the lint filter and the condenser are

not blocked. See the "Care and maintenance"
chapter.

• Prolonged drying times may also be due to the

tumble dryer being located in a confined space
or room that is too small, causing the air to
become too hot.

• Make sure that the tumble dryer has access

to more cold air, open doors and/or windows.

The laundry does not dry, or is too
dry

• The door has been opened while the program

is running, which disrupts the moisture
monitoring function.
