Caring for your Dryer

 

Your Tumble Dryer needs very little attention. The following simple

 

steps will keep it performing well.

When finished

Switch off electricity and remove plug. Ensure hands are dry.

After each load

Always clean the filter, by rinsing under the tap or using a vacuum

 

cleaner. Turn the dryer by hand to check that small items like hand-

 

kerchiefs do not get missed. Always empty the water container.

Every Week

Wipe the drum and seal with a damp cloth.

Condenser

Every Month

Remove condenser unit and clean any build up of fluff from between

 

the plates by rinsing it under the tap with cold water. This should be

 

done with cold water from the rear of the condenser. Refit with the

 

handle at the front.

 

Occasionally clean the surface of the stainless steel sensor inside the

 

drum with vinegar to remove water contaminates. Apply carefully with

 

a cloth this will maintain the drying performance of the dryer. The

 

sensor is approx 50mm (2") round and located between the vanes of

 

the drum towards the front of the dryer, rotate the drum if necessary

 

to locate it.

Cleaning

Every 6 months vacuum the front air intake grille and Vents at the rear

 

of the dryer, to remove the build up of fluff, lint or dust.

 

To remove accumulation of fluff from the door, front of condenser and

 

filter areas, clean occasionally with a vacuum cleaner.

Do not use

Abrasive cleaners, scouring agents, acids, chlorine bleach or metal

 

polish to clean any part of the machine.

Lubrication

Your tumble dryer uses special bearing components. Lubrication by

 

the user is not necessary and must not be attempted.

 

We strongly recommend that all appliances are regularly checked for

 

electrical and mechanical safety.
