Repair guidance / Miele / BR4
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 different pattern: a scraping or thumping sound appears
Say whether the noise repeats with each drum rotation or occurs only during starting. Stop use if the sound is severe or the drum appears displaced. Do not reach inside the cabinet or keep restarting the machine to see whether the noise clears.
A repair in a flat or a room reached by stairs
Include the floor level, entry arrangements and any stairs between the entrance and the equipment. These are practical booking details, not a reason to move the appliance yourself or promise that a repair can be completed on arrival.

Questions for this repair enquiry
What details help with “the dryer stops before clothes are dry”?
Keep the last successful operation separate from the first sign of the problem. For a report of “the dryer stops before clothes are dry”, say what still works and what no longer happens. If the other pattern, “a scraping or thumping sound appears”, has also occurred, include its timing as a separate observation. Send these details with the full model and your West Wickham postcode; they prepare the enquiry without identifying a part in advance.
How does “a scraping or thumping sound appears” 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 repair in a flat or a room reached by stairs — so the assessment can account for safe access as well as the reported behaviour.
