How to Reset a Candy Tumble Dryer

If your Candy tumble dryer is displaying an error code or not responding correctly, performing a reset can sometimes clear temporary electronic faults and restore normal operation.

A reset will not repair mechanical or electrical failures, but it can help resolve temporary glitches caused by power interruptions or control board errors.

How to Reset a Candy Tumble Dryer

  1. Turn the tumble dryer off using the power button.
  2. Unplug the appliance from the power socket.
  3. Wait approximately 3 to 5 minutes to allow the internal electronics to fully discharge.
  4. Plug the tumble dryer back into the power outlet.
  5. Turn the appliance back on.

If the tumble dryer was experiencing a temporary fault, the reset may allow it to operate normally again.
