Unlike vented dryers, which release moisture from clothes through the exhaust, Axxis ventless dryers condense the moisture into a liquid and release it into the plumbing. You might find the dryer stops working and refuses to begin a new cycle if the "Drain" light is glowing.
-
Move the dryer away from the wall and locate the condensate hose running to a nearby sink or standpipe. Disconnect the hose from the back of the dryer and check inside for clumps of lint. Small blockages may cause a problem if the pump is unable to eject the water.
-
Straighten out any kinks in the condensate line and ensure the appliance is standing on its own legs and not on a piece of the piping. Routing the line around a tight corner to reach the drain might cause a reduction in water flow severe enough to trigger the "Drain" light.
-
Have the drain pump inspected by a professional technician for blockages. The washing machine forces water out of the appliance with the help of a pump. Dirt and other debris can sometimes clog the pump and cause it to have trouble draining. Pump blockages also trigger the "Drain" warning light.
