Cleaning fluff filter

The filters collect all the fluff which collect during drying. To ensure that the tumble dryer works perfectiy, the fluff filters (micro-fine filter and fine strainer) must be cleaned after each drying cycle. The warning icon @ is on to remind you of this operation. CAUTION! Do not operate the tumble dryer without fluff filters or with damaged or blocked fluff fil- ters.

1. Open loading door

2... Use a moist hand to clean the micro- fine filter, which is built into the lower part of the loading aperture.

3. After a period of time, a gleam because

of detergent residue on laundry forms on the filters. When this oceurs, clean the filters with warm water using a brush. Remove the filter from the door pulling it out. It can be positioned with the tooth facing to the left or to the right). After cleaning do not forget to put it back.

4. Push down the unlock button on the

large coarse filter. Large mesh filter jumps up.

5. Take out fine strainer.

6. Remove fluff from fine strainer. lt is

best to use a moist hand for this pur- pose. Clean the full filter area The strainer area does not have to be cleaned after every drying cycle, but should be checked regularly and cleaned of fluff if necessary.

7. To do this, grip the top of the large

mesh filter and pull it forwards until it comes loose from the 2 brackets.

8. Remove fluff from the full filter area. lt

is best to use a vacuum cleaner for this purpose.

9. Push both journals of the large mesh

filter into the brackets on the loading door until they snap into place.

10. Re-insert fine strainer.

11. Push against the large mesh filter until

it locks into the interlock. If the fine strainer is not fitted, the large mesh filter will not snap into place and the loading door cannot be closed. Cleaning the door seal Clean the door seal with a moist cloth immediately after the drying cycle is completed. Emptying the water reservoir Empty the water reservoir after each drying cycle. If the water reservoir is full, an active programme will break off automatically and the emp- ty container & symbol on the display will light up. To continue the programme, the water reservoir must first be empty.

Care and cleaning  WARNING! Risk of poisoning. The water from the water reservoir is not applicable to drink or to pre- pare meals.

1. Pull out the water reservoir 1 and pull

up the water reservoir drainage pipe as far as it will go 2.

2. Pour condensed water out into a basin

or similar receptacle.

(à) The water from the water reservoir can be used as distilled water, e.g. for steam ironing. But first filter the water (e.g. with a coffee filter) to remove residue and small pieces of the fluff. Cleaning heat exchanger filters If the indicator clean base filters æ lights up, the heat exchanger fluff filters in the base of the appliance must be cleaned, i.e. after each 3 drying cycles. Both filters are located in the appliance base. (à) Water can collect in the filter housing therefore it is normal for the heat exchanger fluff filters to become wet. A + Do not operate the tumble dryer without the fluff filters. + Clogged filters cause higher energy consumption (drying cycle elongation) and tumble dryer damage. + Adirty heat pump can only be cleaned up with a costly process.

Care and cleaning Open loading door Open door in plinth: To do this, push the release button on the bottom of the door aperture and open the door in the plinth to the left. Pull filter housing out of the base by the handle.

1) Water contains, a variable quantity of limestone and mineral salts of which quantities vary according to

geographical locations thus varying its conductivity values. Relevant variations of the conductivity of the water compared to those prefixed by the factory could slightly influence the residual humidity of the laundry at the end of the cycle. Your dryer allows you to regulate the sensitivity of the drying sensor based on conductivity values of the water.
