Cleaning and care

Cleaning with water

The lint screens and door lint filter should be given a wet cleaning only when severely blocked or plugged.

￿Open the door and extract the door lint filter from the door casing.

Remove both lint screens from the port-hole:

￿Turn the left and right lint screen knobs ￿ (until you hear them click).

￿Grasping the knobs, pull the lint screens out towards the centre￿.

￿Clean all screens under running hot water.

￿Shake the screens thoroughly until drips are no longer visible.

￿Dry them thoroughly and with care.

￿Also clean the air passages underneath the screens, using a vacuum cleaner, for example.

￿When inserted, all lint screens must be dry. Wet screens can cause faulty dryer operation!

￿Insert the door lint filter fully into the door casing.

￿Insert the lint screens in the port-hole and push them downwards.

￿Latch both knobs (until you hear them click).

Cleaning the dryer

Disconnect the dryer from the electrical supply.

￿Clean the housing, control panel and door seal only with a slightly damp cloth and mild detergent or soapy water.

￿Clean stainless steel parts (like the drum) with a suitable stainless steel cleaner.

Use no scouring products, cleaners containing solvents, or glass or all-purpose cleaners. They can damage plastic surfaces and other parts.

￿Dry all parts with a soft cloth.
