How to exit demo mode on the ESSENTIELB ESLHP8-2B dryer?
Frequently Asked Questions - 29/12/2025
Response Notice-Facile

Your ESSENTIELB ESLHP8-2B is a heat pump dryer, not a washing machine. According to the official manual available, this model does not have a documented demo mode function. The dryer operates in standard mode: once you select a program using the program selection button and press the Start/Pause button, the drying cycle starts immediately to dry your laundry.

If your appliance does not start the drying cycles normally after powering on, check that the loading door is properly closed and that a program is correctly selected before pressing Start/Pause. Also, check that the child lock is not activated (it locks the buttons): to deactivate it, press and hold the Ringtone/Timer and Drying Level buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds.

If you encounter operational difficulties, refer to the troubleshooting guide in the manual or contact the SOURCING & CREATION customer service.

Cleaning the moisture sensors

Your appliance is equipped with moisture sensors that detect whether or not the laundry is dry.

To clean the moisture sensors:

  1. Open the dryer door.
  2. Allow the appliance to cool down if it has just finished a drying cycle.
  3. Clean the metal sensors with a soft cloth soaked in vinegar and then dry them. Clean the metal sensors 4 times a year.

Do not use metal tools to clean the metal surface of the sensors.

Never use solvents or other similar cleaning products for cleaning.

Emptying the condensed water collection tank

Moisture in wet laundry is removed by condensation. You must empty the condensed water collection tank at the end of each cycle or when the "tank full" warning lamp appears in the display.

WARNING: The condensed water is not safe to drink!

Never remove the water tank while a cycle is running. If you forget to empty the water tank, the dryer will stop working and the "Tank full" indicator will light up. Empty the tank and press the Start/Pause button to restart the drying cycle.

To empty the water collection tank:

  1. Remove the tank from its housing by grasping its handle and pulling it towards you.

NOTE: If you have connected the water drain hose to the rear of the appliance, you do not need to empty the tank.

Cleaning the condenser Filter

Lint and fibres that have not been collected by the lint filter are blocked in the filter drawer located behind the protective hatch. The condenser filter cleaning indicator lamp lights up to remind you to clean it.

Clean the condenser at least once a month or every 5 cycles of dryer use.
