The tank must be re-inserted correctly.
After emptying and inserting the tank the Start/
Pause button has to be depressed again to
allow the program to continue.
Handy tip: The condensed water may be used
in a steam iron or to top up a battery, etc. In this
case it must be filtered (e.g. through a coffee filter).

Cleaning the drum
When your laundry does not reach the desired
degree of dryness, in other words, when it turns
out either too dry or too damp, we advise you
to clean the inside of the drum with a cloth
soaked with vinegar.
This will eliminate the slight film that has formed
in the drum (due to residues of detergent and
softeners used in the washing, and from the
lime contained in the water), which prevents
the probes from detecting the correct degree
of dryness.
Care and cleaning
Emptying the water tank
Water extracted from the laundry condenses
inside the machine and is collected in a tank.
The tank must be emptied after each drying
cycle to ensure efficient operation when the
machine is next used. The light
Water Tank
reminds you of this operation.
