CARE AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING: unplug the dryer during the cleaning and maintenance procedures.

Emptying the water tank after each cycle

Cleaning the primary door filter after each cycle

• Pull the primary door filter out and clean it by removing the lint from the filter surface under running water or using a vacuum cleaner.

Cleaning the secondary door filter when the relevant indicator turns on

• Pull the secondary door filter out and clean it in all its parts by washing it under running water or using a vacuum cleaner.

Clogged filters

• clean both door filters For optimal performance, dry the filters before inserting them back in place. Do not use the dryer without having inserted all filters back in place properly first. The filters are essential parts for drying. They are intended to collect the lint formed during the drying process. In case of clogged filters, the air flow inside the dryer would be seriously affected: the drying time would be longer, the energy consumption would increase and the dryer could be damaged. If these procedures are not carried out properly, the dryer may not start.

In this case, the machine goes on working even when the drying cycle is completed. An indicator on the control panel will signal the maintenance. Do not switch the machine off during this phase.

Cleaning the tumble dryer

• The external metal, plastic and rubber parts can be cleaned with 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 filters area, using a vacuum cleaner every so often.
