Care and maintenance

Disconnecting the power supply

EN
!
Disconnect the dryer when not in use or during cleaning
and maintenance operations.

Cleaning the filter after each cycle

The filter is a fundamental component of the dryer: its fun-
ction is to collect lint and fluff that form during drying.
Clean the filter once drying is completed, by rinsing it under
running water or cleaning it with a vacuum cleaner. Should
the filter become clogged, the flow of air inside the dryer will
be seriously hampered: drying times becomes longer and
more energy is consumed. Moreover, the dryer may become
damaged.
The filter is located in front of the dryer seal (see Picture).
Removing the filter:
drum after each cycle
Rotate the drum manually to remove smaller items (handker-
chiefs) that could have been left inside the dryer.
Cleaning the drum
!
Avoid using abrasives, steel wool or stainless steel cleaning
agents to clean the drum.
A coloured film may appear on the stainless steel drum
surface: it may be caused by a combination of water and/or
cleaning agents such as wash-softeners. This coloured film
does not affect the dryer's performance.

Emptying the water container after
each cycle
Remove the water container and empty it into a sink or other
suitable drain outlet, then replace it correctly.
Always check the water container and empty it before star-
ting a new drying cycle.

Cleaning the condenser unit

• Remove the condenser unit regularly (monthly) and clean
off any fluff deposits from the plates by rinsing it with cool
water running on the rear end of the condenser.
Removing the condenser:
1. Disconnect the dryer from the power supply and open the
door.
2. Open the condenser cover (see Picture), unlock the three
catches by turning them 90° anti-clockwise, then pull on
the grip to remove the condenser.
3. Clean the surface of the seals and replace the unit with
the arrows pointing upwards, while making sure that the
catches are securely fixed.

Cleaning the tumble dryer

• The external metal and plastic parts and the rubber parts
can be cleaned with the aid of a damp cloth.
• Clean the front air intake grille regularly (every 6 months)
with a vacuum cleaner to remove any lint, fluff or dust
deposits. Furthermore, remove any lint deposits from the
front part of the condenser and from the filter area, using a
vacuum cleaner every so often.
