The condensate can be used as distilled water, e.g. for steam ironing.
However first filter the condensate (e.g. with a coffee filter) to remove
any residue and small pieces of fluff.

Cleaning heat exchanger

If the HEAT EXCHANGER (WÄRMETAUSCHER) display is illuminated, the
heat exchanger needs to be cleaned.

Caution! Operating when the heat exchanger is clogged with lint can
damage the dryer. This also increases energy consumption.
