not dry enough). ■ The laundry has not been spun well enough before drying. Always set the
highest selectable spin speed for the particular washing programme.
■ Washer dryer overloaded: Observe the recommendations for the maxi-
mum load in the programme table and on the load display. Do not overload
the washer dryer, as the maximum load for the drying phase is less than
the maximum load for the wash cycle. Unload the washer dryer after wash-
ing with the maximum load and divide the laundry into two drying cycles.
■ The power supply voltage is too low (below 200 V) – provide a suitable
power supply.
■ The water pressure is low. According to water condensing principle, low
water pressure will cause evaporated steam not condensed totally.
■ The water tap is closed. Due to the use of the water condensation technol-
ogy for drying, please keep the connected water tap open during the dry-
ing process, otherwise proper drying cannot be guaranteed.
■ Thick multilayered textiles or textiles with thick fillings dry easily on the sur-
face, but not inside. This equalisation process may take longer. For these
types of textiles, select drying mode · (Extra dry), or select additional
time drying via Intensive Dry or Gentle Dry programmes.
If a fault cannot be rectified (switching the machine on and off) or a repair is required:
■ Set the programme selector to $ Off and pull out the mains plug.
