Frequently Asked Questions - STE 73C Saivod

How do I clean the lint filter?

Open the door, pull the lint filter out from the door recess. Use your fingers to remove lint from the filter mesh. Rinse under running water if necessary, then dry thoroughly before reinserting. Clean after every cycle for optimal drying performance.

How do I drain the water tank?

The water tank is located at the bottom of the dryer. Pull it out, pour water into a sink, and replace it securely. Ensure the tank is properly inserted to avoid leakage. For continuous drainage, you can connect a hose to the drain outlet.

What should I do if the dryer stops mid-cycle?

Check if the water tank is full or the lint filter is clogged. Also ensure the door is fully closed. If the problem persists, reset the dryer by unplugging it for 10 minutes. Refer to the manual for error codes.

How to select a drying program?

Turn the program knob to select the desired cycle (e.g., Cotton, Synthetics). You can adjust options like dryness level or delay start with the corresponding buttons. Press Start/Pause to begin.

Can I dry delicate fabrics in this dryer?

Yes, use the Delicates program which uses lower heat and gentle tumbling. Always check care labels on garments before drying.

How to install the dryer?

Place the dryer on a level, sturdy surface. Leave at least 5 cm clearance on all sides for ventilation. If stacking on a washer, use a stacking kit. Connect the power cord and ensure the water tank or drain hose is correctly positioned.

What does the Child Lock do?

Activate Child Lock by pressing and holding the Child Lock button for 3 seconds. This prevents accidental button presses during operation. To deactivate, repeat the process.

How can I reduce energy consumption?

Sort laundry by fabric type and dryness level. Use the Eco program if available. Clean the lint filter after every cycle and ensure proper ventilation around the dryer. Do not overload.

Why is the drying time too long?

Possible causes: overloaded drum, clogged lint filter, full water tank, or low room temperature. Select a higher dryness level or use a cotton program for faster drying.

How to troubleshoot error codes?

Refer to the manual for a list of error codes. Common codes: E1 (water tank full), E2 (filter clogged), E3 (temperature sensor issue). Turn off the dryer, resolve the issue, and restart.

5 Maintenance and cleaning

Filter Cartridge / Door Inner Surface

Lint and fibres released from the laundry to the air during the drying cycle are collected in the "Filter Cartridge".

i Such fibre and lint are generally formed during wearing and washing.
i Always clean the filter and the inner surfaces of the cover after each drying process.
You can clean the filter and filter area by vacuum cleaner.

To clean the filter:

1. Open the loading door.
2. Remove the cover filter by pulling it up and open the filter.
3. Clean lint, fibre, and cotton raveling by hand or with a soft piece of cloth.
4. Close the filter and place it back into its seat.
   Clogging may arise on the filter surface after using your machine for some time; if this occurs, wash the filter with water and dry it before using again.

There are humidity sensors in your dryer that detect whether the laundry is dry or not.

To clean the sensor:

1. Open the loading door of the dryer.

2. Allow the machine to cool down if drying has been carried out.

3. Wipe the metal sensors with a soft cloth, dampened with vinegar and dry them.

i Clean metal sensors 4 times a year.

⚠️ Never use solvents, cleaning agents or similar substances when cleaning since these materials can cause fire and explosion!

Water tank;

The moisture in the damp laundry is taken from the laundry and condens ed. Drain the water tank after each drying cycle or during drying when "Water tank" warning light turns on.

⚠️ Condensed water is not drinkable!

⚠️ Never take out the water tank when the programme is running!

If you forget to drain the water tank, your dryer will stop during the following drying cycles when the water tank is full and the "Water tank" warning light will turn on. If

this is the case, press the "Start/Pause/Cancel" button to resume the drying cycle after draining the water tank.

3-If there is lint accumulation in the funnel of the water tank, clean it under running water.

4-Place the water tank into its seat.

For the condenser;

Hot and humid air in the condenser is cooled with the cold air from the room. Thus, the humid air circulating in your dryer is condensed and then pumped into the tank.

i Clean the condenser after every 30 drying cycles or once a month.

To clean the condenser:

1. If a drying process has been carried out, open the door of the machine and wait until it cools down.
