Care and cleaning
Clean periodically the interior part of
the door to remove any fluff from
the seals around the filter. Accurate
cleaning ensures correct drying.
Your dryer will only function well if
the filters are clean. The filters
collect all the fluff which accumu-
lates during drying and they
must therefore be cleaned at
the end of each programme,
before removing the laundry,
with a damp cloth. The filter
light is on to remind you of this
operation.
The filter in the inner door may be
removed for cleaning. Do not be
alarmed by the amount of fluff. It is
not due to excessive wear caused
by the dryer. All fabric loses fluff
when drying but it goes un-noticed
in the air. In a tumble dryer it simply
collects in the filter. After a while, a
withish patina due to detergent
residue on laundry forms on
the filters.
When this occurs, clean the filters
with warm water using a brush.
Remove the filter in the door open-
ing as per picture (it can be posi-
tioned with the tooth facing to the
left or to the right).

Do not use the appliance with-
out filters.
You must DISCONNECT the appliance from the electricity supply, before you can carry out any
cleaning or maintenance work.
