Bosch WTW86560GB Tumble Dryer Trips the Power

Hi Paul! I have a Bosch EcoLogixx Condenser Tumble Dryer WTW86560GB, and when i turn it on it trips the power. I was thinking i would start with the heater element, would i be in the right area? Also with a multimeter am i looking for open circuit?  Thanks
