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, dilutents or similar products.
Cleaning the door
Periodically clean 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 program, before removing the laundry, with a damp cloth. The light 
Filter is on to remind you of this operation.
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 unnoticed in the air. In a tumble dryer it simply collects in the filter.
After a while, a whitish film 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 below (it can be positioned with the tooth facing to the left or to the right).
The filter in the inner door must be removed for cleaning.
