Dryer display shows unusually long program times and adjusts frequently

Safety first: No internal work is required for basic checks; unplug only if opening panels.

• Check installation environment: Ensure the Siemens dryer is in a room within the recommended temperature range and with adequate ventilation.
• Adjust load size: Avoid overloading. Large, dense loads can extend drying time significantly.
• Clean sensors and condenser: Clean moisture sensor bars and the condenser/filters to ensure accurate sensing and efficient heat exchange.
• Monitor performance: If times remain excessive despite proper conditions and cleaning, further diagnosis of sensors and heat pump may be needed.
