How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the dryer before accessing the control board.

  • Power reset: Disconnect power for 5 minutes, then restore and test timed dry again.
  • Check for sensor mode confusion: Ensure you are using a true timed dry cycle, not a sensor cycle that may pause time based on moisture.
  • Inspect control board: Access the main control board and look for obvious damage. If the timer function fails consistently, the board may need replacement.
  • Contact Café support: For firmware-related timing issues, a software update or board replacement may be recommended.
