Fault Checklist

Problem Cause

Appliance does not work. - The fuse may have blown out or breaker may have

tripped.

- The mains plug may not be connected firmly to the

mains socket.

- The On button may have not been pressed.

- The Start button may have not been pressed.

- The door may not be closed properly.

Buttons do not work - Settings cannot be changed while drying is in progress.

To change settings, switch the appliance off and on

again. Then, set the settings again.

- Child Lock may be activated. (See page 9.)

Drying repeatedly starts

and stops.

- This is not a malfunction; the drum slowly rotates and

stops repeatedly when the “Anti-crease” function has

been set.

Laundry is not sufficiently

dried. (Some portions are

damp.)

- The laundry might have been added to the drum during

drying.

- The laundry may have become tangled.

- The laundry may be too heavy.

- Try using the Warm Timed programme (Timed Prog.

Warm) for small synthetic fibre loads, or dry them

together with large items of clothing.

- The moisture sensors may be dirty. (See page 18.)

NH-P80G1_English.indb 21 2012/05/31 19:01:32

22 - Troubleshooting

Fault Checklist

Problem Cause

Drying takes too long. - The laundry may be too wet.

- The laundry may have become tangled.

- The laundry may be too heavy.

- Clothes which dry quickly and clothes which dry slowly

may have been dried together.

- The ambient air temperature may be too low.

Items made of synthetic

fibres are charged with

static electricity after

drying.

- Reduce static electricity charges by adding fabric

conditioners to wash loads during the final rinse cycles.

A small item, for example,

a button, has dropped

through the filter frame

hole.

- Bring the item out by opening the panel in front of the

heat exchanger unit just the same as when cleaning

the fine filter.

The clogged filter warning

indicator is flashing

although none of the filters

are clogged.

- This is not a malfunction; the clogged filter warning

indicator flashes to alert users to clean the filters

after every 10

drying programme (twice a month).

The indicator may flash even if the filters have been

cleaned.

The displayed remaining

time changes.

- The remaining time is estimated and corrected

continually. Thus, the time displayed may change.

The operating sound

changes.

- This is normal; the change is caused by the on-off

conditions of the compressor and draining pump.

‘0’ display remains after the

programme has finished.

- This is not a malfunction; without the Anti-crease

function being set, the appliance automatically switches

itself off 2 hours after the programme finishes.

The lamp inside the drum

has gone out.

- The lamp lights up for 10 minutes when the door is

opened after the programme finishes. To activate the

lamp again, switch on the appliance, and then open the

door again.

The lamp inside the drum

does not light up.

- If 2 hours have elapsed after a programme is

completed, the lamp will not light up since the appliance

automatically switches itself off.

Drying has finished with

the Anti-crease set to OFF,

however, the Anti-crease

indicator is flashing.

- For safety, the dryer cools down inside the drum. The

Anti-crease indicator flashes during this time.
