Gaggenau Cycle Time Extension Due to Sensing

Washer-dryer takes much longer than the displayed time to complete cycles.

Possible Causes

Unbalanced loads causing repeated spin attempts, Slow heating due to scaled heater, Restricted water inlet or drain, Sensor misreading load moisture

Safety first: Unplug the appliance before internal checks.

1. Check load and program: Avoid overloading and ensure the selected program matches the fabric type.
2. Clean inlet filters and drain filter: Ensure water can enter and exit freely.
3. Descale heater: Run a hot maintenance cycle with descaler to restore heating efficiency.
4. Clean moisture sensors: For drying, clean the sensor bars inside the drum to improve moisture detection.
