MAINTENANCE

You must disconnect the appliance from the
electricity supply, before you can carry out
any cleaning or maintenance work.

External cleaning

Important: do not use methylated spirit, diluents
or similar products.

Cleaning the filter

accumulates during drying and it must therefore
be cleaned at the end of each programme with a

noticed in the air. In a tumble dryer it simply
collects in the filter.
Important: Remove the fluff around the filter too

condenser unit with a damp cloth.

Cleaning the condenser

Remove fluff from the condenser unit regularly
according to how frequently the machine is used
and to the type of laundry being dried. However it
should always be cleaned when deposits of fluff
can be seen.
Extract the condenser using the top handle;
remove fluff with a hand-held shower head or a
soft brush.
