Possible cause
If the dryer is switched off
during a drying programme
or there has been a power
cut:
The dryer is not working
efficiently or economically.
Possible cause: A build-up of
fluff or detergent residues.
The vent ducting may be very
long, which does not
constitute a fault.
An attempt has been made to
alter a programme while it is
in progress.
Remedy
– After switching the dryer
on / power has been
restored, confirm with OK
and start the programme
again.
– Cleaning the fluff filter is
usually all that is required.
However, if the Clean the
airways message does
not go out after you have
cleaned the filter, then
also check all the
possible causes
described under "The
drying process goes on
too long or even
switches off".
To delete the fault message:
– Open and close the door,
or confirm with OK.
If very long ducting is used,
then programme times will be
longer and energy
consumption higher.
You can adjust the setting
which controls if or when the
check message appears.
– See "Settings menu J,
Clean the airways".
– You will need to cancel the
current programme before
you can select a new one.
