2. Remove the top part of the additive
compartment to aid cleaning. Make
sure that all detergent residue is
removed from the upper and lower
part of the recess. Use a small brush
to clean the recess.
3. Flush the detergent drawer out under
running warm water to remove any
traces of accumulated detergent.
After cleaning, replace the top part in
its position.
4. Insert the detergent drawer into the
guide rails and close it. Run the
rinsing programme without any
clothes in the drum.
18.9 Cleaning the air filters
The air filters collect the fluff. The fluff
normally occurs when the clothes are
dried in a washer-dryer.
• At the end of each drying cycle in the
display the indicator is on to advise
to clean the primary air filter (see
pictures from 1 to 5). The acoustic
signal operates.
• Occasionally the indicator may
flash to remind you that both air filters
should be cleaned: the primary air
filter and the secondary air filter (for
secondary filter, see pictures from 6 to
8). The acoustic signal operates.
To have best drying performances clean
the air filters regularly. Clogged filters
make cycles longer and increase the
energy consumption.
WARNING!
Do not use water to clean
the filters to avoid that
plastic fibres flow in the
water ambient. Throw the lint
in a dustbin.
1. Push the hook to open the primary
air filter.
