Please check your Model Number I cannot find any info on it and it does not look correct for a US model.

The most common cause for your problem is the vent system. try the below.
Also check your lint filted. Often if you use fabric softener it can coat the lint filter greatly reducing air flow and lenghthening dry times. If coated clean it with soap and water.

Vent Check
Undo the dryer from the exhaust
Run a load
If the load dries correctly then you have a vent problem.
Clean/check the vent system. Make sure the outside louvers open fully.

If you do not want lint in the house.
Take a pair of pantyhose, put one leg into the other and attach this to the dryer exhaust.
Leave enough room behind the dryer so it can blow out like a windsock.
Run a load.

Both the above will allow you to check the air flow and temp.
Also the above is NOT recommended for a gas dryer due to possible carbon monoxide problems.
