Change in the programme duration displayed during drying

Change in the programme duration displayed during drying — Dynamic adjustment by moisture sensors

Siemens · iQ800 Tumble Dryer

What does Change in the programme duration displayed during drying mean?

The displayed programme duration changes while the dryer is in operation. This is a normal function, as the dryer's moisture sensors detect the remaining moisture in the laundry and adjust the programme length accordingly.

Common Causes

  • The dryer's moisture sensors are dynamically adjusting the drying time based on the actual moisture content of the load.
  • This is a normal function of programmes that use moisture sensing (not timed programmes).
