12Cleaning the lint filter

Electronic and Manual 4.5 kg dryers

It is important to clean the lint filter regularly, as the lint produced in the drying process can become a fire hazard if it is allowed to accumulate in or around your dryer.

The lint filter is located in the door opening.

1Remove the lint filter, open it out and wipe clean with your hand.

2Close the lint filter and place it back in the opening.

1To remove the outlet grill grasp the hub in the centre of the grill and pull. Wipe the filter clean with your hand.

Note: do not clean your lint filter by vacuuming or wetting it, as this may block the fine pores essential for maximum airflow.
