A layer can build up on the filter pores that can cause clogging of the filter after using the dryer for a while. Wash the lint filter with warm water to remove the layer that builds up on the lint filter surface. Dry the lint filter completely before reinstalling it.
- Clean the entire inner surface of the loading door and loading door gasket with a soft damp cloth.
Cleaning the sensors
There are dampness sensors in the dryer that detect whether the laundry is
dry or not.
To clean the sensors:
- Open the loading door of the dryer.
- Allow the machine to cool down if it is still hot due to the drying process.
- Wipe the metal surfaces of the sensor with a soft cloth, dampen them with vinegar, and dry them.
INFO
- Clean the metal surfaces of the sensors 4 times a year.
- Do not use metal tools when cleaning the metal surfaces of the sensors.
WARNING: Never use solvents, cleaning agents or similar substances for cleaning due to the risk of fire and explosion!
Draining the water tank
The dampness of the laundry is removed and condensed during the drying process
and the water that arises accumulates in the water tank. Drain the water tank
after each drying cycle.
WARNING: Condensed water is not drinkable! Never remove the water tank
when the program is running!
If you forget to drain the water tank, the machine will stop during the
subsequent drying cycles when the water tank is full and the Water
Tank warning symbol will flash. If this is the case, drain the water tank and
press Start /
Pause button to resume the drying cycle.
To drain the water tank:
- Remove the water tank in the drawer or container carefully.

Electrical Connection
Make sure that you have an earthed power outlet socket rated at 13 amps (minimum).
Attention 9.1
- When installed, the socket must be reachable after installation, or a separate switch (which can disconnect the two poles) must be used in the installation. Check for suitability.
- For a permanent connection, a master switch with at least 3mm contact clearance and a minimum 13 A rating must be used.
Electrical requirements 9.2
- Before you insert the plug into the wall socket make sure that the voltage and the frequency shown in the rating label corresponds to your electricity supply.
- We recommend that this appliance be connected to the main supply via a suitable switched and fused socket in a readily accessible position.
- Should the mains lead of the appliance become damaged or need replacing at any time, it must be replaced by a special purpose-made mains lead which can only be obtained from an Authorised Service Agent.
Warning
- This appliance must be earthed
- If the fitted molded plug is not suitable for your socket, then the plug should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted.
- The molded plug on this appliance incorporates a 13A fuse. Should the fuse need to be replaced an ASTA-approved BS1362 fuse of the same rating must be used. Do not forget to refit the fuse cover. In the event of losing the fuse cover, the plug must not be used until a replacement fuse cover has been fitted. The color of the replacement fuse cover must be the same as that visible on the pin face of the plug. Fuse covers are available from any good electrical store.
- To avoid hazards, damaged supply cords should be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly qualified people.
WARNING: Do not operate without the top cover fitted. Risk of injury.
Important
Fitting a different plug 9.3
- As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the colored markings identifying the terminals on your plug, proceed as follows: 1 Connect the green-yellow or green (earth) wire to the terminal in the plug marked ‘E’ or with the symbol or coloured green and yellow or green.
- 2 Connect the blue (neutral) wire to the terminal in the plug marked ‘N’ or colored black.
- 3 Connect the brown (live) wire to the terminal in the plug marked ‘L’ or colored red.
With the alternative plugs a 13 A fuse must be fitted either in the plug or adaptor or in the main fuse box. If in doubt contact a qualified electrician.
Washer/dryer combination 9.4
Do not stack washing machine on top of the tumble dryer. This would damage
both appliances and guarantees would become void. It is also unsafe to stack
an appliance on top of another without using a suitable and approved stacking
kit obtained from specialist retailers.
