Electrolux EDV705HQWA

Answers and step-by-step fixes from the official Electrolux manual.

What does the display show?

• E40: Door is not closed. The dryer will not start and beeps because the door is open or not latched.
• End: Drying program finished. The cycle is complete and the display shows this text.
• Clean Filter LED blinking: Time to clean the lint filter. This light turns on at the end of every cycle to remind you to clean the filter.
• Cooling progress indicator LED blinking: Cooling cycle in progress. The heater has switched off and the dryer is cooling the clothes before the end of the program.
• Anti crease indicator blinking: Anti crease cycle in progress. The dryer tumbles the load periodically after drying ends to stop creases forming.
• LOC: Child Lock turned on. The controls are locked so the dryer cannot be changed by accident.
• unL: Child Lock turned off. The controls are now unlocked and can be used normally.
• SEt: Setup Mode entered. This shows when you hold Dry Mode and Start/Pause to change hidden settings.
• InVE: Inverted mounting setting selected. This appears in Setup Mode when you are choosing Normal or Inverted display orientation.
• bUZZ: Buzzer setting selected. This appears in Setup Mode when you are choosing whether sounds play.

Common problems

The dryer won't start

1. Is the plug firmly in the socket and the power turned on? Check the plug is pushed in fully and the power point is switched on.
2. Is the door fully closed? The dryer will not start unless the door is closed and the safety switch button is pushed in.
3. Has a fuse blown? Test the power point with another appliance to see if it is working.

Clothes come out still wet

1. Did you pick a long enough drying time? Choose a longer time setting if the load is still damp at the end.
2. Is the room cold? You may need a longer time if the room is 10 degrees C or less.
3. Is the lint filter blocked? A blocked filter restricts airflow and stops clothes drying properly.

Clothes dry unevenly

1. Are you using the Cupboard program on a mixed load? Differences in fabric texture and thickness can mean not every item dries at the same rate.
2. Have you tried a different program? Switch to Extra Dry or a Timer program, but watch delicate fabrics so they do not overdry.
3. Are you following the garment care labels? Always dry items the way the label on the garment says.

The Clean Filter light stays on

1. Has the cycle just finished? This light turns on and blinks at the end of every cycle as a normal reminder, not a fault.
2. Have you cleaned the lint filter? The filter must be cleaned after every load.
3. Did the filter click back into place? Make sure you hear a click when you refit the filter, and fit it the correct way round.
