Error Code: SUN SYMBOL Difficulty: Easy
Problem: Indicates that low heat drying is active, which is gentler for delicate fabrics.
How to Fix SUN SYMBOL Error (Step-by-Step)
- Understand that this symbol simply means the ‘Low Heat’ or ‘Gentle’ drying setting is active. It is not an error.
- If you did not intend to use low heat, press the ‘Start/Stop’ button to pause the cycle.
- Locate the button on the control panel for ‘Low Heat’, ‘Gentle’, or a similar setting.
- Press this button to deactivate the low heat option. The sun symbol on the display should turn off.
- If you are drying delicate fabrics like silk or synthetics, leaving this setting on is recommended to prevent damage.
- Press the ‘Start/Stop’ button again to resume the drying cycle with your new selection.
- Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
