upper right side of the machine and
may cause that area to be warm during
drying operations.
● Is the drying load large?
● Is the tap turned on?
Tap water is used, even during
dry-only operations. Lack of a water
supply may prolong drying time or
cause operations to finish while the
laundry is only half dry.
● If the water temperature is high, The
dehumidification efficiency of the
clothes is reduced and the operating
time will be longer.
● Is the water supply inlet's filter
clogged?
If the filter is clogged, the water supply
will not be smooth.
● Is the drain hose installed properly?

proper drying operation will not be
possible.

may prolong drying time or cause
operations to finish while the laundry is
only half dry.

Solution

temperature during drying should
be 30°C or less.
