when to get help

  • stop using the drawer and arrange service for grinding, overheating, leaks or water covering the tub. do not dismiss a cycle that will not finish as normal drying.

steps

  1. check where the water sits

    after a completed cycle, note whether water is only beneath the filter or spread across the tub. once the drawer is cool, wipe condensation from the rim. if water covers the tub, stop using the drawer and arrange service; do not dismantle further.

  2. compare the fan with the manual

    a smooth drying-fan sound can continue after washing. compare it with your model's drying instructions and note when it starts and stops. if it behaves differently, give those details to a repairer.
