Cleaning the heat exchang-
er
If the display shows PLEASE CLEAN THE CON-
DENSER, the heat exchanger must be cleaned.

Caution!
Operating when the heat exchanger
is blocked with fluff can damage the dryer.
This also increases energy consumption.

Open door in plinth. To do this, press the release
button on the bottom of the door aperture and
open the door in the plinth to the left.

Clean fluff from the inside of the door and the heat
exchanger front chamber. Wipe the door seal with
a damp cloth.
