Drying cycle completes but clothes are still damp or wet.

Safety first: Unplug and allow the appliance to cool before cleaning or inspection.

• Reduce load: Dry smaller loads; Teka combos typically dry less than they can wash. Check the manual for maximum drying capacity.
• Clean condenser and lint: Remove and rinse the condenser (if applicable). Clear lint from filters and ducts.
• Check program selection: Ensure the correct drying program and dryness level are selected (e.g., cupboard dry vs. iron dry).
• Inspect heater and NTC (advanced): If there is no warmth during drying, test the dryer heater and NTC as described in error-related sections.

Warning: Persistent poor drying after cleaning may indicate heater or sensor failure requiring part replacement.
