Clean the condenser when light comes
on.
The condenser is situated at the lower part
of the cabinet behind a small door. To open
the door, push the catch as per picture.
During the drying cycle or at the end, it is normal
for water to be present on the surface of the
condenser insertion.
To pull out the condenser, first turn the two
red stops downwards and then remove the
condenser unit holding it at the handle.
Clean it with a brush and rinse it under the
shower if necessary.
Also clean the outside, removing all fluff.
Clean the rubber seal round the condenser
cabinet and in the inner part of the small
door with a damp cloth.
Important! Do not use pointed objects
or utensils to clean the spaces
between the plates, as this could dam-
age the condenser and make it perme-
able.
Re-fit the condenser, turn the red stops
upwards and close the door.
Do nnot uuse tthis aappliance iif tthe ccondenser
