Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning the filter area

￿￿Important! When the FILTER display lights, it is essential to clean the fluff filter. Otherwise your dryer might suffer damage.

A small amount of fluff may reach the area around the filter in spite of the fluff filter. Therefore you should clean the entire filter area from time to time, or at least every three months.

￿Remove the fluff filter.

￿ Hold the filter lid by the top and pull it for- wards until it is released from both holders.

￿Remove the fluff from the entire filter area

– preferably with a vacuum cleaner.

￿ Press both pins of the filter lid into the hold- ers on the door until they click in.

￿ Reinsert the fluff filter.

￿Press against the filter lid until it clicks into the lock.

Cleaning the drum

￿￿Warning! Do not clean the stainless steel drum with abrasive deter- gents or steel wool!

￿Wipe the inside of the drum and the drum fins with white vinegar to avoid any residues/deposits effecting the sensors. This is particularly important if you regulary use fabric conditioning sheets or dry starched items in the dryer.

Cleaning the panel and operating parts

￿￿Warninggents. ! Do not use household furniture polish or aggressive deter-

￿Wipe over the panel and operating parts with a damp cloth. Only use warm water.
