Cleaning agents and agents for
pretreating laundry (e.g. stain removers,

Cleaning the moisture sensor
Note:
The moisture sensor measures
the amount of moisture in the laundry.
After long periods of usage, the
moisture sensor may become covered
by a fine layer of limescale or detergent
and care product residue. These
deposits must be removed regularly,
otherwise the drying results may not be
optimal.
