Cleaning the cooling fins
(Grille at bottom right)
,
Generally, the cooling fins do not
need to be cleaned. They should
only be cleaned if excessive
quantities of dust and lint are
causing unusually long drying times.
Use the yellow opener supplied to open
the grille at the bottom right of the front
of the tumble dryer.
^
Insert the opener in the top-centre of
the grille and carefully lift the opener
to pry open (see arrow) the grille.
^
Now remove the grille by pulling it
diagonally upwards.
^
Check whether the cooling fins are
blocked.
,
Danger of injury!
Do not touch the cooling fins as they
are very sharp and may cut your
fingers.
,
To avoid damaging the cooling
fins, run the vacuum cleaner (using
dusting brush or crevice nozzle)
lightly across them without pressure.
^
Carefully vacuum up any dust or lint
on the cooling fins which may be
causing a blockage.
^
Replace the grille by inserting at the
bottom first.
^
Then click it into position at the top.
