Miele Tumble Dryer | Fault F55 appears on the tumble dryer display. The laundry is still not dry after the maximum drying time of 180 minutes. Only with residual moisture drying program.

The drum is too full.

Do not exceed the maximum load size for the drying program selected. Information on the load size can be found in the operating instructions.

Spin using a higher spin speed in the washing machine.

Environmental impact due to lint which has been disposed of incorrectly.

To prevent microplastics from spreading into the waste water system, lint must not be drained away with the water.

Dispose of the lint collected by the lint filters with your household waste.

Tip: You can also use a vacuum cleaner so that you can remove the lint without touching it.

Clean the lint filters as follows:

Open the door.
Pull the upper lint filter forward to remove it.
Remove the lint (see arrows).
Remove the lint (see arrows) from the surface of all the lint filters and the perforated laundry deflector.
Turn the yellow knob on the lower lint filter in the direction of the arrow (until you hear it click).
Hold the knob and pull the lint filter forward to remove it.
Use a vacuum cleaner with a long crevice nozzle attached to remove any visible lint from the upper air flow openings.

Clean all lint filters with water:

Wipe the smooth plastic surfaces of the lint filters with a damp cloth to clean them.
Rinse the filter surfaces under warm running water.
Shake the lint filters thoroughly and then dry them carefully.
Wet lint filters could cause operational faults while drying.
Push the lower lint filter in completely and lock it with the yellow knob.
Push the upper lint filter in completely.
Close the door.

Spin the laundry in the washing machine at the highest possible speed.
