Troubleshooting

The AEG 35600 Dryer has some known problems that occur often. Here are some easy to do solutions for the problems or error codes your AEG might be giving you.

The tumble dryer will not start

The appliance is not plugged in, the fuse has blown, the START button has not been pressed, no program has been selected, or the door is not properly closed. Plug in the appliance, check and replace the fuse if needed, press the START button, select the required program, and ensure the door is securely closed.

The results are unsatisfactory

The wrong program has been selected, the fluff filter is blocked, the tumble dryer has been overloaded, or the laundry was not sufficiently spun prior to drying. Select the appropriate program for the laundry type, clean the fluff filter, adhere to the maximum load specifications, and ensure the laundry is well-spun before using the dryer.

The drying process takes unusually long

The vent hose may be obstructed, or the fluff filter is clogged. Inspect the vent hose for blockages or kinks and clean the fluff filter after every drying session to maintain optimal airflow and efficiency.

Safety Precautions

The AEG 35600 Dryer is designed for drying normal domestic laundry. It is essential to follow all safety instructions, particularly during installation and operation, to avoid injury or damage. Repairs should only be carried out by qualified personnel.

Drying Programs

The dryer offers multiple programs such as COTTONS, EASY CARES, and AIRING. Each program is designed for specific fabric types and load weights, with COTTONS handling up to 5 kg and EASY CARES up to 2.5 kg.

Energy Efficiency

For economical use, choose the appropriate program based on the type and amount of laundry. For instance, partially dry a load with the HAND IRON program, then complete drying with CUPBOARD DRY to conserve energy.

Troubleshooting

Common issues can often be resolved by ensuring the appliance is plugged in, the fuse is intact, and the door is properly closed. Regular maintenance such as cleaning the fluff filter can prevent many operational problems.

Loading and Program Selection

Before drying, ensure laundry is well spun, close zip fasteners, and button-up bed linen. Load the laundry, select the appropriate drying program using the control panel, and press the 'SPECIAL CARE' button for delicate fabrics if needed.

Maintenance

After each drying cycle, clean the fluff filter to ensure efficient operation. Also, check for any remnants or fluff in the drum and remove them promptly. Keeping the vent hose unobstructed is crucial for optimal performance.

Installation Guidelines

The dryer should be installed in a well-ventilated room, and the feet should be adjusted if placed on a carpeted floor to ensure proper air circulation. The electrical connection must be performed by a qualified electrician, and the appliance must be earthed.

Maintenance

Check out our tips to prevent many common issues and extend the life of your AEG Dryer.

Regular Cleaning

To ensure efficient operation of the AEG 35600 Dryer, clean the fluff filter after each drying program. Also, check whether there are any remnants or fluff from the washing in the drum and remove immediately. This helps prevent blockages and ensures optimal drying performance.

Check Ventilation

Ensure the vent hose is not obstructed, blocked, or squashed. Proper ventilation is crucial as it affects the drying efficiency and may cause safety cut-outs to operate if not maintained.

Avoid Overloading

Observe the maximum loads stated for each program to prevent creasing and ensure effective drying. Overloading can lead to unsatisfactory results and longer drying times.

Proper Laundry Preparation

To prevent tangled bundles of laundry, close zip fasteners, button up bed linen and pillowcases, and tie together loose tapes, e.g., aprons. This prevents damage and ensures even drying.

Avoid Residue Buildup

Wipe the inside of the drum and the drum fins with white vinegar to avoid a buildup of residues or deposits that may affect the sensors. This is particularly important if you regularly use fabric conditioning sheets or dry starched items.
