MAINTENANCE
ENGLISH
2
Empty the water container into the sink.
CAUTION
• Do not drink the condensed water or reuse it. It
could be lead to health problems for people and
animals.
3
Refit it back into the appliance.
• Push in the water container fully into the
appliance until it is in place.
4
Press the Start/Pause button.
Ventilation inside the drum
To help prevent odours, leave the door slightly
open to help air out the drum after use.
NOTE
• The door holder has a built-in magnet, it sticks to
the door rim and helps to provide small gaps for
air out.
Cleaning the Appliance
Periodically
Wiping the Moisture Sensor
This device senses the moisture level of the clothes
during operation, which means it must be cleaned
regularly to remove any build-up of lime scale on
the surface of the sensor.
Wipe the sensors inside the drum.
CAUTION
• Do not wipe the moisture sensor with abrasive
materials. Always clean the sensor with a dry
rough acrylic sponge.
Draining the Remaining
Condensed Water
After drying clothes, a small quantity of condensed
water may stagnate in the base of the appliance
and cause odours. Drain the remaining water
regularly to reduce any unpleasant odours from
the appliance.
NOTE
• It's better to drain the remaining water when
you are going to be away for a long time,
because the remaining water will stagnate and
cause odours.
• Draining the remaining water before the
deodorizing, which works better.
