Resolution

Check Power Supply

  • Ensure the dryer is properly plugged in.
  • Test the outlet with another device (i.e. table lamp) to confirm it’s working.
  • Check the circuit breaker or fuse box for any tripped switches.

Inspect the Door

  • Make sure the door is fully closed. Most dryers won’t start if the door isn’t securely shut.
  • Check for any damage or misalignment in the door latch.

Control Panel or Buttons

  • Try pressing the power/start button firmly.
  • If the panel is unresponsive, check for a child lock (padlock symbol on display) feature that may be activated.
  • Disable the lock by pressing and holding the indicated button or button combination for 3–5 seconds.

Reset the Dryer

  • Unplug the dryer for 30 seconds, then plug it back in.

Check the Settings

  • Ensure a drying cycle is selected.
  • Make sure that Delay Start mode is not activated.

Overheating Protection

  • If the dryer overheated previously, it may have triggered a safety shut-off. Let it cool down for 30–60 minutes before trying again.

Filter and Condenser Check

Error Codes

  • If the display shows an error code, refer to the user manual for its meaning and recommended action.

If the appliance is still not working contact the Authorised Service Centre.

Cause:

  • In some specific cases caused by interferences in the power supply, electronic devices can stop working normally or even not react to ON/OFF button
