Warning
Risk of death!
There is a risk of electric shock as the

Do not use cleaning agents or agents
for pre-treating laundry (e.g. prewash
sprays, stain removers). Do not use
high-pressure cleaners or steam jet
cleaners to clean your appliance.
Cleaning the moisture sensor
Note:
The dryer is equipped with a
stainless-steel moisture sensor. The
moisture sensor measures how damp
the laundry is.
After long periods of usage the moisture
sensor may become covered by a fine
layer of limescale or residues of
detergents and care products. Such
residues must be removed regularly as
the sensor function and in consequence
the drying result may be impaired.
Open the door and clean the moisture
sensor with a coarse sponge.
Caution!
Moisture sensor may be damaged.
Do not clean moisture sensors with
abrasives and steel wool.
