Care 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 clean- ing ensures correct drying.

P1109

Cleaning the filters

Your dryer will only function well if the fil- ters 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 light is on to remind you of this operation.

P1110

The filter in the inner door must be removed for cleaning.

P1111

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).
