Cleaning and maintenance Cleaning fluff filter To ensure that the dryer works perfectly, the fluff filters (micro-fine fil- ter and fine strainer) must be cleaned after every drying cycle. Caution! Never operate the dryer without fluff filters or with damaged or blocked fluff filters.
Clean the entire filter area The strainer area does not have to be cleaned after every drying cycle, but should be checked regularly and cleaned of fluff if necessary. 6. To do this, grip the top of the large mesh filter and pull it forwards un- til it comes loose from the two brackets.
Emptying the condensed water container Empty condensed water container after every drying cycle. When a programme is running and the condensed water container be- comes full, the programme is automatically interrupted and the mes- sage THE TANK IS FULL, PLEASE EMPTY appears in the display. In order to continue the programme, the condensed water container must first be emptied.
Cleaning the heat exchanger If the display shows PLEASE CLEAN THE CONDENSER, the heat exchang- er must be cleaned. Caution! Operating when the heat exchanger is blocked with fluff can damage the dryer. This also increases energy consumption. 1. Open door. 2.
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.
