Try This First — Clean the Filter and Reset
Before looking up your error code, always clean the lint filter first. A blocked lint filter is the single most common cause of tumble dryer error codes across all brands. The lint filter must be cleaned after every single drying cycle. Also empty the water tank and clean the condenser if you have not done so recently. Then unplug the machine for 2 to 3 minutes, plug back in and retry the cycle.
