This is an innovative process known as thermal spinning used to reduce
energy consumption during the drying phase.
Run the Fluff/Drum Clean (cold) programme without laundry to remove fluff
which has collected in the washer drum during the drying phase.
The washer dryer runs a self-cleaning cycle to remove fluff which was depos-
ited by the laundry during the drying phase. This requires a little water. There-
fore, the tap must be turned on even during the drying phase.
