How to clean the lint filter?

Open the door, remove the main filter located at the bottom of the opening. Remove the lint by hand or with a vacuum cleaner. Replace the filter. It is recommended to clean it after each cycle.

Why is the drying cycle longer than expected?

This may be due to a clogged filter, a dirty condenser, an overload, or poorly spun laundry. Check these points and clean if necessary.
