C Always clean the filter after each drying process.

C You can clean the filter and filter area by vacuum cleaner.

To clean the filter:

1. Open the loading door.

2. Remove the cover filter by pulling it up and open the filter.

3. Clean lint, fibre, and cotton raveling by hand or with a soft piece of cloth.

4. Close the filter and place it back into its seat.

CClogging may arise on the filter surface after using your machine for some time; if this occurs, wash the filter with water and dry it before using again.
