4. Turn both lock washers inwards.
5. Use the handle to pull the heat
exchanger out of the base and carry
it horizontally to prevent any re-
maining water from spilling.
6. To empty the heat exchanger, hold
vertically over a washing-up bowl.
CAUTION!
Do not use sharp objects to clean. The
heat exchanger could develop leaks.
7. Clean heat exchanger.
It is best to use a brush or to rinse thoroughly with a hand-held shower.
8. Replace heat exchanger and lock into place (turn both lock washers outwards
until they snap into place).

CAUTION!
Never operate the dryer without the heat exchanger.

Cleaning the drum

CAUTION!
Do not use abrasives or steel wool to clean the drum.
Lime in the water or cleaning agents may form a barely visible lining on the inside
of the drum. The degree to which the laundry has been dried is then no longer
detected reliably. The laundry is damper than expected when removed from the
dryer.
Use a standard domestic cleaner (e.g. vinegar-based cleaner) to wipe down the
inside of the drum and drum ribs.
