8. Cleaning Procedures
8.1 Door Lint Filter
As with all clothes dryers, your lint filter should be cleaned
after each use.
Note:
— Lint accumulates on the lint filter and will block the air
circulation. This effects the performance of your clothes
dryer and will extend the required drying time.
— Always disconnect the power cord before cleaning!
— Do not operate the dryer without the lint filter installed!
— Clean the lint filter after each use .
To clean the lint filter:
— Ensure the dryer has cooled down after any recent
operation.
— Unplug the appliance.
— Open the appliance door.
— Take out the lint filter and wipe off any accumulated lint
and fibres with your hand, or rinse the filter with water
and dry thoroughly.
— Re-install the lint filter.
8.2 Cleaning the Base Filter
— Ensure the dryer has cooled down after any recent
operation.
— Unplug the appliance.
— Open the base filter cover, as illustrated below.
— Unscrew the two locking levers, rotating them towards
each other.
— Completely clean the base filter using the same method
as described in 8.1.
— Reinsert the base filter and re-screw the locking levers
in place.
— Close the base filter flap, until it locks in position.
Warning!
Never operate the dryer without the filters
installed.
8.2 Cleaning the Heat Exchanger
If you frequently use your appliance, it is recommended to
clean the heat exchanger approximately once every two
months. Be careful not to damage the air heat exchanger
and please use gloves.
Note:
The lint and fluff can easily be removed when first lightly
dampened.
8.3 Empty the water container
Warning!
After each use, the water container should be
emptied.
— Hold and pull out the water container using two hands.
— Tilt the water container, pouring out the condensed
water in to a sink.
— Re-insert the water container into the appliance.
Note:
If the container requires emptying during operation, the
program will pause and the
icon will flash on the
display. Follow the process above to empty the container
and restart the program by pressing the “Start/Pause”
button.
