Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning the condenser

Important!

 When the CONDENSER display lights, it is essential to clean 

the condenser. Otherwise your dryer might suffer damage. In addition 
energy consumption will be increased if the condenser unit is covered 
with fluff.

Open the door.

0

Press on the two tabs to unlatch and 
take off the removable plinth.

0

Turn the two securing disks through a 
quarter turn each outwards.

0

Pull the condenser out of the base by the 
handle.

0

Clean the condenser, best with a hand-
held brush or by rinsing with a hand-
held shower head. The water removal 
slits on the rear of the condenser must 
be free too.

Important!

 Do not use any sharply pointed objects to clean the con-

denser. They could make it leak.

0

Reinsert and push in and turn each one of the two securing disks 
through a quarter turn inwards. The words "top – oben – en haut" must 
be at the top.

Re-mount the plinth.

Important!

 The dryer must not be operated without condenser.
