Maintenance and Cleaning

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

External cleaning

Use water with a little mild washing-up liquid
added rinse and then dry thoroughly.
Important: do not use methylated spirit,
diluents or similar products.

Cleaning the door

Clean periodically the interior part of the door to
remove any fluff from the seals around the filter.
Regular cleaning ensures correct drying.

Cleaning the filters

Your dryer will only function well if the filters are
clean.
The filters collect all the fluff which accumulates
during drying and they must therefore be
cleaned at the end of each programme, before
removing the laundry, with a damp cloth. The
«Please clean filters» message appears on the
dispay to remind you to carry out this operation.
The filter in the inner door must be removed for
cleaning.
Do not be alarmed by the amount of fluff. It is
not due to excessive wear caused by the dryer.
All fabric looses fluff when drying but it goes
un-noticed in the air. In a tumble dryer it simply
collects in the filter.

After a while, a whitish patina due to detergent
residue on laundry forms on the filters. When
this occurs, clean the filters with warm water
using a brush. Remove the filter in the door
opening as per picture (it can be positioned with
the tooth facing to the left or to the right).
Do not use the appliance without
filters.

Cleaning the condenser unit

Clean the air condenser when the «Please
clean condenser» message appears on the
dispay.
The condenser is situated at the lower part of
the cabinet behind a small door. To open the
door, push the catch as per picture.
During the drying cycle or at the end, it is
normal for water to be present on the
surface of the condenser.
To pull out the condenser, first turn the two red
stops downwards as shown below and then
remove the condenser unit holding it at the
handle.
