ʑ
Odour formation in the
washer dryer.
– Run the Fluff Clean 90°C programme without laundry.
– Use standard detergents.
ʑ
Foam escapes from the
detergent drawer.
– Too much detergent used?
Mix 1 tablespoon of fabric softener with ½ litre of water and
pour into compartment II in the detergent drawer.
– Reduce detergent dosage for the next wash cycle.
– Use commercially available low foam detergents and care
products which are suitable for use in washer dryer.
ʑ
Excessive noise, vibrations
and “wandering” during spin
cycle.
– Are the appliance feet fixed?
Secure the appliance feet. aInstallation and maintenance
instructions, Page 5
– Transport bolts removed?
Remove transport bolts. aInstallation and maintenance
instructions, Page 3
ʑ
Display panel/indicator
lamps do not function while
the appliance is running.
– Power failure?
– Circuit breaker tripped? Reset the circuit breaker/change
theâfuse.
– If the fault occurs repeatedly, call the customer service.
ʑ
Programme sequence
longer than usual.
– Not a fault – unbalanced load detection system adjusts
imbalance by repeatedly distributing the laundry.
– Not a fault – foam detection system active – adds an additional
rinse cycle.
ʑ
Detergent residues on the
laundry.
– Occasionally, phosphate-free detergents contain water-
insoluble residues.
– Select müRinse/Spin or brush off residues when the laundry
is dry.
ʑ
Spinning noise during drying.
– This is an innovative process called thermospinning to reduce
energy consumption during drying.
ʑ
Differently coloured fluff from
the previous drying cycle is
redeposited on the laundry in
the following washing cycle.
– Run the Fluff Clean : (cold) programme without laundry
inside to remove fluff accumulated in the tub during tumble
drying.
ʑ
Water inlet noise during
drying, Water tap symbol
isâflashing during drying.
– The machine includes a self cleaning function to remove fluff
that is released from laundry during drying. This is done with
help of a small amount of tap water. Open the water tap
also during drying.

ʑ
Drying duration extended.
– According to the air cooling principle, higher environment
temperature will result in poor drying performance, so the
drying duration will be extended. Ensure a good ventilation
toâremove exhaust heat.
– Cooling air inlet filter blocked? aInstallation and maintenance
instructions, Page 9: Clean the air inlet filter
– Run the Fluff Clean : (cold) programme without laundry
toâremove fluff accumulated in the tub and drying system.
ʑ
Drying programme does not
start.
– Drying programme not selected? aPage 9: 9cDry option
button and Page 7: Programme overview
– Loading door not closed properly?
– Pump is blocked. aInstallation and maintenance instructions,
Page 8: Clean the pump
ʑ
The drying result is not
satisfactory (laundry is not dry
enough).
– Too high environmental temperature (above 30â°C) or bad
ventilation of the room, where the washer dryer is placed –
ensure good ventilation to remove exhaust heat.
– The laundry has not been spun well enough before drying –
always set the highest selectable spin speed for all washing
programmes.
– Machine overload: please follow the load recommendation
inâthe progamme table and load display, do not overload
machine, because of maximum load amount for drying is lower
than for washing unload the machine after washing with
maximum load for washing and separate the load into two
drying cycles.
– The line voltage of the power supply is too low ( below 200âV)
– ensure suitable power supply.
– Cooling air inlet filter blocked? aInstallation and maintenance
instructions, Page 9: Clean the air inlet filter
– Thick multilayered textiles or textiles with thick fillings – these
textiles easily dry on the surface, but not inside. This
equalization process may take longer. Please use time drying
programs to completely dry these kinds of textiles.
ʑ
A small amount of water is
observed dripping on the
dried laundry load when the
door is opened.
– Drying time is shortened with a small load. Some residual
moisture may remain in the drying system. Opening the door
quickly creates a suction effect which pulls moisture from the
drying system.
– Open the door slowly. Avoid jerking the door open.
ʑ
If you cannot correct a fault yourself or a repair is required:
– Turn the programme selector to Off and pull the mains plug out of the socket.
– Turn off the tap and call customer service.
Emergency release e.g. in the event of power failure
The programme will continue to run when the power is restored.
However, if the laundry has to be removed, the washing
machine door can be opened as follows:
Risk of scalding.
The detergent solution and laundry may be hot.
If possible, leave it to cool down.
Do not open the washer dryer door if water can be seen
through the glass.
– Set the programme selector to Off and disconnect the mains
plug.
– Drain the detergent solution. aInstallation and maintenance
instructions, Page 8
– Pull the emergency release with a tool and release.
The washer dryer door can then be opened.
