Check the drum after each cycle

Turn the drum manually in order to remove small
items (handkerchiefs) that could have been left
behind.

Cleaning the drum

!

Do not use abrasives, steel wool or stainless steel

cleaning agents to clean the drum.

A coloured film may start to appear on the stainless
steel drum, this may be caused by a combination of
water and, or cleaning agents such as fabric conditioner
from the wash. This coloured film will not affect the
dryer performance.

Cleaning

External parts in metal or plastic and rubber parts 
can be cleaned with a damp cloth.

Periodically check the vent tube and any permanent
venting fixture to make sure that there has been 
no accumulation of fluff or lint, and remove it.

Remove lint that collects around the filter and the 
outlet vents.

!

Do not use solvents or abrasives.

!

Your dryer uses special bearing components which

do not need lubrication.

!

Have your dryer checked regularly by authorised

technicians to ensure electrical and mechanical safety
(

see Service

).

Switching off the electricity

Unplug your dryer when not using it, when cleaning it
and during all maintenance operations.

Clean the filter after each cycle

The filter is an important part of your dryer: 
it accumulates lint and fluff that is formed while drying.
Small items could also become trapped in the filter.
When finished drying, therefore, clean the filter by
rinsing it under running water or with your vacuum
cleaner. Should the filter become clogged up, the airflow
inside the dryer will be seriously compromised: drying
times lengthen and you will consume more energy. It
may also damage your dryer.

The filter is found in front
of the dryer trim (

see 

diagram

).

Removing the filter:
1. Pull the plastic grip of
the filter upwards (

see

diagram

).

2. Clean the filter and
replace it correctly.
Ensure the filter is fully
located flush into the 
tumble dryer trim.

!

Do not use the dryer without replacing the filter.
