Repair guidance / Haier / 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 cabinet becomes unusually hot
Stop the dryer if overheating or a scorched smell is suspected. Note the model type and whether the change followed a move or surrounding storage being altered. Never bypass a thermal cut-out or treat repeated resets as a repair.
Limited working space around the equipment
Give the available working space and describe anything that obstructs normal access. An appliance being visible does not make it safe to pull out or loosen: cables, connected pipework, fixings and the surrounding floor need to be considered before any movement.
Identify this Haier model
Provide the complete model and serial number from a safely accessible rating label. Do not remove panels or move heavy equipment to find it.

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 cabinet becomes unusually hot”, 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 cabinet becomes unusually hot” 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 — limited working space around the equipment — so the assessment can account for safe access as well as the reported behaviour.
