Cleaning the moisture sensors

The dryer is equipped with a stainless-steel moisture
sensor. The moisture sensor measures how damp the
laundry is.
After long periods of usage the moisture sensor may
become covered by a fine layer of limescale or residues
of detergents and textile care products. Such residues
must be removed regularly as the sensor function and in
consequence the drying result may be impaired.
