Repair guidance / AEG / BR3
A water-container warning persists
Describe whether the warning returns immediately or during a cycle, and whether the model uses a removable container or a connected drain. Do not assume a full container is the only explanation. Keep the water-handling arrangement with the model details for the assessment.
A different pattern: the dryer stops before clothes are dry
Give the selected automatic or timed programme and the approximate stopping point. Sensor behaviour, load composition and a fault stop can look alike at the end. Include any warning and whether the appliance reports a normal completion.
A fitted appliance behind a furniture door
Describe the visible furniture panel, plinth and surrounding cupboards. A built-in appliance needs its access and connection arrangement checked before removal; do not detach cabinetry or pull the appliance forward to make the enquiry.
Identify this AEG model
Include the product number (PNC) from the rating label if it is safely accessible.

Questions for this repair enquiry
What details help with “a water-container warning persists”?
Keep the last successful operation separate from the first sign of the problem. For a report of “a water-container warning persists”, say what still works and what no longer happens. If the other pattern, “the dryer stops before clothes are dry”, has also occurred, include its timing as a separate observation. Send these details with the full model and your Beckenham postcode; they prepare the enquiry without identifying a part in advance.
How does “the dryer stops before clothes are dry” change the enquiry?
Treat that as additional evidence rather than proof that both symptoms have one cause. Explain whether the two patterns began together or appeared at different times. Include the fitting context — a fitted appliance behind a furniture door — so the assessment can account for safe access as well as the reported behaviour.
