Cleaning & Maintenance
Check the drum after each cycle
Turn the drum manually in order to remove small items
(handkerchiefs) that could have been left behind.
Cleaning the drum
Do not use abrasives, steel wool or stainless steel
cleaning agents to clean the drum.
A color film may start to appear on the stainless steel
drum, this may be caused by a combination of water
and, or cleaning agents such as fabric conditioner from
the wash. This colored film will not affect the dryer
performance.
Cleaning the dryer
•
External parts in metal or plastic and rubber parts
can be cleaned with a damp cloth.
•
Periodically check the vent tube and any
permanent venting fixture to make sure that
there has been no accumulation of fluff or lint,
and remove it.
•
Remove lint that collects around the filter and the
outlet vents.
Do not use solvents or abrasives.
Your dryer uses special bearing components which
do not need lubrication.
Have your dryer checked regularly by authorized
technicians to ensure electrical and mechanical safety.
When you should switch off the electricity
Unplug the dryer when not using it, when cleaning it
and during maintenance activities.
Clean the filter after each cycle
The filter is an important part of your dryer:
it accumulates lint and fluff that is formed while drying.
Small items could also become trapped in the filter.
When finished drying,
therefore, clean the filter
by rinsing it under running
water or with your vacuum
cleaner. Should the filter
become clogged up, the
airflow inside the dryer will
be seriously compromised:
drying times lengthen and
you will consume more
energy. It may also damage your dryer.
The filter is found in front
of the dryer trim
(
see diagram
).
Removing the filter:
1. Pull the plastic grip of
the filter upwards (
see
diagram
).
2. Clean the filter and
replace it correctly.
Ensure the filter is fully
located flush into the
tumble dryer trim.
Do not use the dryer without replacing the filter.
