Disconnect the dryer when not in use or
during cleaning and maintenance operations.
Cleaning the filter after each
cycle
The filter is a fundamental component of the
dryer: its function is to collect lint and fluff that
form during drying.
Clean the filter once
drying is completed, by
rinsing it under running
water or cleaning it with a
vacuum cleaner. Should
the filter become clogged,
the flow of air inside the
dryer will be seriously hampered: drying times
becomes longer and more energy is consu-
med. Moreover, the dryer may become dama-
ged.
The filter is located in
front of the dryer seal
(see Picture).
Removing the filter:
1. Pull the filter’s plastic
handle upwards
(see
Picture).
2. Clean the fluff off the filter and replace it
correctly. Ensure that the filter is pushed fully
home.
!
Do not use the dryer unless the filter has
been replaced in its holder.
Checking the drum after each cycle
Rotate the drum manually to remove smaller items (handker-
chiefs) 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 film may appear on the
stainless steel drum surface: it may be caused by a combina-
tion of water and/or cleaning agents such as wash-softeners.
This coloured film does not affect the dryer’s performance.
Emptying the water container after
each cycle
2
Remove the water container and
empty it into a sink or other
suitable drain outlet, then
replace it correctly.
Always check the water contai-
ner and empty it before starting
a new drying cycle.
-Failure to empty the water container may cause
the following:
- The dryer stops heating (thus 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 Heat Pump Filter
Unit
• Periodically (every 5 drying cycles) remove
Heat pump filter unit and clean any build up
of fluff from the surface of the filter by rinsing
it under running water or with your vacuum
cleaner.
We however recommend that you clean this
filter after every drying
cycle to optimize the
dryers performance.
To remove Heat pump
filter unit:
1. Unplug the dryer and
open the door.
2. Remove the filter unit
by rotating the 4 clips to
the vertical position then pulling the filter unit
towards you.
3. Separate the two
parts of the filter unit and
clean the surface of the
filter.
!
Warning: The front of
the heat pump is made
from thin metal plates.
Take care that you do
not damage these or cut yourself when
cleaning, removing or replacing the filter unit.
Quick Tips
!Remember to clean your filter and Heat
Pump filter unit after each load.

er after each load.

ing at its BEST!
4. If there is any build up of fluff on the
plates Carefully clean this off with a damp
cloth,sponge or vacuum cleaner. Never use
your Fingers.
5. Assemble the two parts of the filter clean
the surface of the seals and replace with the
4 clips into the horizontal position, sure that
the catches have been secured.
Cleaning the tumble dryer
• The external metal, plastic and rubber parts can be clea-
ned with a damp cloth.
• Clean the front air intake grille regularly (every 6 months)
with a vacuum cleaner to remove any lint, fluff or dust
deposits. Furthermore, remove any lint deposits from the
front part of the condenser and from the filter area, using a
vacuum cleaner every so often.
!
Do not use solvents or abrasives.
!
Have the dryer checked regularly by authorised technical
personnel in order to ensure that the electrical and mechani-
cal parts work safely (see Assistance).
