Frequently Asked Questions - TKF 8431 S BLOMBERG

How do I clean the lint filter?

Open the loading door, pull the filter cover up, open the filter, and remove lint by hand or with a soft cloth. For stubborn clogging, wash with water and dry before reuse. Clean after every drying cycle.

What should I do if laundry comes out wet after drying?

Check if the lint filter is clogged and clean it. Ensure you did not overload the drum – max capacity is 8 kg. Also verify that the programme selected matches the laundry type.

How often should I clean the condenser?

Clean the condenser every 30 drying cycles or at least once a month. Open the kick plate, unlock the two locks, pull out the condenser, rinse with pressurized water, let it drain, then reinsert and lock.

Why does the dryer stop and show 'Water tank full'?

The water tank is full. Empty it by pulling the drawer, removing the tank, and draining the water. After emptying, press the 'Start/Pause/Cancel' button to resume the programme.

Can I dry wool or silk items?

Only dry laundry marked as tumble-dryer safe. Wool refresh programme is for ventilating wool items, not full drying. Do not dry silk, nylon stockings, or delicate fabrics in the dryer.

How do I adjust the dryer feet?

Rotate the adjustable feet by hand until the machine stands level and firm. Do not unscrew the feet completely from their housings. Use a spirit level if needed.

What does the 'Anti-creasing' function do?

If you do not remove laundry immediately after the programme ends, the dryer rotates the laundry every 10 minutes for up to 2 hours to prevent creases. Activate it via the Anti-creasing button before or after starting the programme.

How do I activate the child-proof lock?

Press and hold the 'Audio Warning' and 'Anti-creasing' buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds. A lock symbol appears on the display. To deactivate, press the same buttons again for 3 seconds.

Can I use an extension cord?

No. To reduce risk of electric shock, do not use extension cords, multi-plugs, or adaptors. The power cable plug must be easily accessible after installation.

Why does the drying time seem longer than expected?

Possible causes: clogged lint filter (wash with water), overloaded drum, insufficient spin speed in the washing machine, or room temperature below +5°C or above +35°C. Allow proper ventilation around the dryer.

Initial preparations for drying

Things to be done for energy saving:

• Make sure that you operate the product at its full capacity but pay attention to not exceeding it.
• Spin your laundry at the highest speed possible when washing them. Thus, the drying time is shortened and energy consumption is decreased.
• Pay attention to dry same types of laundry together.
• Follow the instructions in the user manual for programme selection.
• Make sure that sufficient clearance is provided at the front and rear side of the dryer for air circulation. Do not block the grill at the front side of the product.
• Do not open the door of the machine during drying unless necessary. If you must certainly open the door, pay attention not to keep it open for a long time.
• Do not add new (wet) laundry during drying.
• Lint and fibres released from the laundry to the air during the drying cycle are collected in the “Lint Filter”. Make sure that you clean the filters before or after each drying.
• In models with condenser, make sure that you clean the condenser regularly at least once every month or after every 30 drying cycles.
• In vented models, follow the chimney connection rules in the user manual and pay attention to the chimney cleaning.
• Ventilate the room, where the dryer is located, well during drying.
• For power saving in models with lamps, at times when your dryer is not in use, keep the door closed if the On/Off button is pressed (if the dryer is energized).

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.

*To drain the water tank:

1-Pull the drawer and remove the water tank carefully.

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.
