							CARE AND CLEANING
CLEANING THE FILTER

cator is on to tell you that the filter must
be cleaned.
The filter collects the fluff. The
fluff occurs while the cloths are
dried in the tumble dryer.
1.Open the door.
2.Pull the filter.
3.Open the filter.
4.Use a moist hand to clean the filter.
5.If necessary clean the filter with
warm water using a brush.
Close the filter.
6.Remove fluff from the filter socket.
For this a vacuum cleaner can be
used .
7.Put the filter inside the filter sock-
et .
CAUTION!
Do not operate the tumble dry-
er without the filter or with dam-
aged or blocked filter.
Clean the filter after each drying
cycle. Clogged filter increases
the cycle time and causes higher
energy consumption.
CLEANING THE DRUM
WARNING!

fore you clean it.
Use a standard neutral soap detergent
to clean the inner surface of the drum
and drum ribs. Dry the cleaned surfaces
with a soft cloth.
