Changing the bulb for interior lighting
Only use a special bulb which is designed specially for dryers. The special bulb can
be obtained from the Customer Care Department, ET no. 112 552 000-5.
When the appliance is switched on, the interior lighting switches itself off after 4
minutes when the door is open.
WARNING!
Do not use standard bulbs! These develop too much heat and may damage the
machine!
WARNING!
Before replacing the bulb, disconnect the mains plug.
1. Unscrew cover above the bulb (this can be found directly behind the loading
aperture, at the top; refer to “Description of machine” section.)
