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 only soap and water 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.
Accurate 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 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
loses 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 withish 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 periodically, 3 or 4 times a
year depending on how frequently the dryer is used.
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.
To pull out the condenser, first turn the two red stops
downwards and then remove the condenser unit
holding it at the handle.
