With error C2 or E20, there's a problem with the water drain.

Error code C6 means you have a problem with the moisture sensor. This causes the dryer cycle to take longer than usual.

  1. Make sure the socket is earthed. You can recognize this by 2 metal pins in the socket.
  2. Isn't the socket earthed? Connect the dryer to a socket that does have 2 metal pins.
  3. If the socket is earthed, there's a problem with the moisture measurement.
  4. Check whether the lint trap and condenser are clean.
  5. If your dryer doesn't work yet, you need a technician.

AEG dryer doesn't dry properly

AEG dryer doesn't dry

Isn't your laundry dry after the dryer cycle? The drying level might not be set right. Turn on the machine and set the dial to one of the cycles. Press the 'Dryness level' and 'Anti-wrinkle' buttons at the same time until the display changes. Press the start button until CO_ appears. Save the setting by pressing the 'Dryness level' and 'Anti-wrinkle' buttons simultaneously again. Doesn't this work? Check the manual of your dryer.

Error 'empty reservoir' appears

When the light for the condenser reservoir comes on, the reservoir is full. Remove the reservoir from the dryer and empty it in the sink. When you put the reservoir back and start the dryer cycle, the notification should disappear. Is your dryer connected to the water drain and do you still see this error? Check the manual to learn how you can manually turn off the light. Also make sure there's no loop in the drain hose. The drain also shouldn't be higher up than 1m.
