• 01 Official source meaning: A firmware download is in progress; the dryer restarts itself when the software is installed.

Decision path

Safe checks, in order

1. 1

   Confirm code and model scope

   Compare the complete display and full model number with the cited manufacturer page or manual before applying any troubleshooting instruction.

   Expected: The official source explicitly covers the displayed code and product family.

   If not resolved: Contact manufacturer support with the full model and serial number.

2. 2

   Follow the official owner checks

   Keep the dryer powered on (do not unplug or shut off power - the official Caution says this may make the dryer inoperable). If dn still displays after 24 hours, request service.

   Expected: Only the user-accessible condition identified by the official source is corrected.

   If not resolved: Stop repeated resets and arrange qualified service if the code returns or the source directs service.

Reset and test

A user reset is not documented for this condition.

Important: A reset may clear the display but cannot repair the underlying condition; follow only the exact model-specific manufacturer procedure.
