Emptying the condensate 

container

Condensation will form in the appliance 

as it dries the laundry.
If there is no drain hose connected to 

the appliance, the condensation water 

from the appliance will run into the 

condensation container. In this case, 

you will need to empty the condensation 

container each time the dryer finishes 

drying the laundry, and also if it 

becomes full before drying is complete.

1.

Pull out the condensate container 

horizontally.

2.

Pour out the condensation water.

Caution!

Dirty condensation water may be 

harmful to your health and cause 

material damage.

Condensation water is not suitable 

for drinking and may be 

contaminated with fluff. Do not drink 

the condensation water or reuse it.

3.

Push in the condensate container 

until you feel it lock back into place 

in the dryer.

Note:  

The filter in the condensate 

container filters the condensation which 

is used during the dryer's automatic 

cleaning cycle. The filter is cleaned by 

emptying the condensation. 

Nevertheless, you should check the 

filter regularly for remaining deposits 

and remove them. See
