Care and maintenance

Disconnecting the power supply

! Disconnect the dryer when not in use or

during cleaning and maintenance operations.

Cleaning the filter after each

cycle

The fi lter is a fundamental component of the

dryer: its function is to collect lint and fl uff that

front of the dryer seal (see Picture).

Removing the fi lter:

1. Pull the fi lter's plastic handle upwards (see

Picture).

2. Clean the fl uff off the fi lter and replace it

correctly. Ensure that the fi lter is pushed fully

home.

! Do not use the dryer unless the fi lter has

been replaced in its holder.

Checking the drum after each cycle

Rotate the drum manually to remove smaller items

(handkerchiefs) that could have been left inside the dryer.

Cleaning the drum

Avoid using abrasives, steel wool or stainless steel cleaning

agents to clean the drum. A coloured fi lm may appear on the

stainless steel drum surface: it may be caused by a

combination of water and/or cleaning agents such as wash-

form during drying.

Clean the fi lter once

drying is completed, by

rinsing it under

running water or cleaning

it with a vacuum cleaner.

Should the fi lter become

clogged, the fl ow of air

inside the dryer will be

seriously hampered:

drying times becomes

longer and more energy

is consumed. Also, the

dryer may become

damaged.

The fi lter is located in

softeners. This coloured fi lm does not affect the dryer's

performance.

Emptying the water container after

each cycle

Remove the water container and

empty it into a sink or other

suitable drain outlet, then

replace it correctly.

Always check the water

container and empty it before

starting a new drying cycle.

-Failure to empty the water container may cause

the following:

- The dryer stops heating (so the load may still be

damp at the end of the drying cycle).

- The "Empty water container" LED activates to

show that the water container is full.

Priming the Water Collection System

When your dryer is new, the Water Container will

not collect Water until the system is primed, this

will take 1 or 2 drying cycles. Once primed it will

collect Water during every cycle.

Cleaning the condenser unit.

•

Remove the condenser (see Picture

below) unit regularly (monthly) and clean off

any fl uff deposits from the plates by rinsing it

with cold water running on the rear end of the

condenser.

Removing the conden-

ser:

Disconnect the

dryer from the power

supply and open the

door.

Open the

condenser cover (see

Picture below), unlock the three catches by

turning them 90°

anti-clockwise, then pull

on the grip to remove

the condenser.

Clean the surface

of the seals and replace

the unit with the arrows

pointing upwards, whi-
