Dryer shows E06 and will not start or stops shortly after starting; often associated with overheating or poor airflow.

Safety first: Disconnect power before cleaning internal ducts. Wear a dust mask if sensitive to lint.

• Clean the lint filter: Remove the lint filter and thoroughly clean it with your fingers or a soft brush. Wash with warm water and mild detergent if coated with fabric softener residue; dry completely before reinstalling.
• Inspect the exhaust hose: Pull the dryer away from the wall. Disconnect the exhaust hose and check for lint clogs, crushed sections, or kinks. Clean or replace as needed.
• Check the wall vent: Go outside and inspect the vent hood. Remove any lint buildup, nests, or obstructions. Ensure the flap opens freely.
• Clean internal ducts: Remove the rear panel and carefully vacuum lint from the blower housing and internal ducts. Do not damage temperature sensors or wiring.
• Verify fan operation (heat pump models): Ensure the circulation fan spins freely and is not obstructed. If the fan motor is noisy, seized, or not running, it may need replacement.
• After cleaning, reconnect everything, restore power, and run a test cycle. If E06 reappears quickly, a faulty airflow sensor or main PCB may be involved and should be checked by a technician.
