Frequently Asked Questions - GTN 482610 GCH GRUNDIG

How do I clean the lint filter?

Open the loading door, pull the lint filter upwards, open it, and remove lint by hand or with a soft cloth. Close and reinsert. Wash with warm water if clogged, and dry completely before reinstalling. Clean after every drying cycle.

How do I drain the water tank?

Pull out the water tank drawer carefully, remove the tank, pour out the water. If lint accumulates in the funnel, rinse under running water. Reinsert the tank. Drain after each drying cycle. Condensed water is not drinkable.

How to connect the dryer to HomeWhiz WiFi?

Press and hold Anti-Creasing/Settings buttons for 3 seconds to enter settings. Navigate to WLAN Setup and set to On. An 8-digit password will appear. On your smart device, connect to the dryer's WiFi network using that password. Then open the HomeWhiz app and follow setup instructions.

Why does drying take too long?

Possible causes: clogged lint filter (wash with warm water), clogged filter drawer (clean sponge and filter cloth), blocked ventilation grids, small room (ventilate), dirty dampness sensor (clean with vinegar), overloaded drum, or low spin speed in washing machine. Check each accordingly.

What should I do if the dryer doesn't start?

Check: plug connection, loading door closed securely, programme selected and Start/Stand-by pressed, child lock deactivated. If power failure occurred, press Start/Stand-by to resume. Also ensure water tank is not full.

How do I clean the dampness sensor?

Open the loading door and let the dryer cool. Wipe the metal sensor surfaces with a soft cloth dampened with vinegar, then dry. Clean 4 times a year. Do not use metal tools, solvents, or cleaning agents.

How to clean the filter drawer?
