Energy saving tips
To avoid unnecessarily long drying times
and high consumption of energy:
– Spin the laundry at the maximum spin
speed in the washing machine.
– Load according to the optimum
amount of laundry recommended for
the programme being used. This will
mean that the energy consumption for
the amount of laundry is at its most
economical.

Cleaning the fluff filters and air flow
openings thoroughly
If the drying duration has become longer
or the surface of the filters is visibly
compacted with fluff, you should carry out

ĺ Flush the fluff filters through with warm
running water.
ĺ Shake the fluff filters thoroughly and then
dry them carefully.
Ensure the filters are dry before

CLEANING AND CARE
Problem/Fault message Possible cause and remedy
The dryer is switched
off at the end of the
programme
The laundry is not sufficiently dry
Items made of synthetic
fibres are charged with
static electricity after
drying
There is a build-up of
fluff
There are humming noises
The tumble dryer switches off automatically. This is not a
fault, but a normal function.
The load consisted of different types of fabric.
ĺ Finish drying using the Warm air timed drying programme.
ĺ Select a more suitable programme next time.
Tip: You can alter the drying levels for some programmes.
See "Programmable functions - Cotton drying levels" and
" Minimum iron drying levels" in the operating
instructions.
Synthetic fibres tend to attract static charge.
Static charge can be reduced by adding fabric softener to
the final rinse in the washing programme.
Fluff is principally the result of friction when garments are
being worn and to some extent when they are being washed.
Machine drying hardly causes any fluff to form.
Fluff is collected by the fluff filters and the plinth filter and can
be removed easily.
See "Cleaning and care".
This is not a fault. The compressor is operating.
These noises are normal and caused by the operation of the
compressor.
