Damage caused by a
insufficiently cleaned or damaged lint
filter.
If the filter has not been properly
cleaned or is damaged, the heat
exchanger will be clogged. There will
be an insufficient flow of air and heat
in the heat exchanger. This will
require a visit from the Technical
Service department.
Before and after cleaning, check the
toe-kick filter in accordance with the
description in "Replacing the toe-
kick filter". The toe-kick filter must be
perfectly functional and undamaged
after cleaning.
 Use a damp cloth to remove any lint
from the handle.
Cleaning and care

Replacing the toe-kick filter


Filter wear caused by continuous
tumble-dryer use.
If the tumble dryer is in continuous
use and is being cleaned regularly,
the toe-kick filter can begin to show
signs of wear after a while. This can
clog up the heat exchanger.
Replace the filter immediately if you
see the following signs of wear
before or after cleaning (optional
accessory).
Poor fit
The edges of the filter do not sit
properly and the filter is deformed. Lint
will blow into the heat exchanger
unfiltered through edges that do not sit
properly. This will cause a permanent
obstruction in the heat exchanger.
