Cleaning heat exchanger
filters
If the warning lamp Condenser lights, the heat
exchanger fluff filters in the base of the
appliance must be cleaned, i.e. after each 3
drying cycles. Both filters are located in the
appliance base.
Water can collect in the filter housing
therefore it is normal for the heat
exchanger fluff filters to become wet.
Important!
• Never operate the dryer without the fluff
filters.
• Clogged filters cause higher energy
consumption (drying cycle elongation) and
dryer damage.
• A dirty heat pump can only be cleaned up
by means of a costly process.
1. Open door in plinth: To do this, press
the release button on the right and open
the door in the plinth to the left.
2. Pull the filter housing out of the base by
the handle.
