Fiber abrasion results because of wearing and washing
the laundry. These fibers (fluff) will be collected during
the drying process in the lint filter. The lint filter in the
filling opening must be cleaned after each drying cycle
to ensure proper air circulation. The shining LED
will remind you.
1. Re move the lint filter from the drum (fig.: 37).
2. Open the lint filter (fig.: 38 and 39) and remove all
lint residuals. By using a damp cloth or moistened
hand the fluff will be remove easily
Detergent residue may be form coating at the fluff
filter. In this case, the filter must be cleaned with
warm water and a soft brush.
3. Reinstall the cleaned lint filter in the tumble dryer
(fig.: 40). The symbol
only switches off after the
appliance was turned off.
4. Occasionally the fluff around the housing of the
filter as well as on the seal should be removed (fig.:
41).
WARNING!
Do not operate the dryer without or with damaged lint or condenser filter.
The tumble dryer is equipped with a filter system to
protect the heat pump from dirt. This is located in the
base of the appliance. Gradually also at this place larger
amounts of fluff will be accumulated and may affect
the proper function of the appliance. .
If the maintenance indicator
flashes, the condenser
filter must be cleaned.
1. Open the Service door (fig.: 42).
2. Open the four levers (fig.: 43).
3. Pull out the condenser filter from its housing (fig.:
44).
4. Remove the rear filter screen (fig.: 45/46).
5. Clean the condenser filter from any residuals with
a damp cloth or moistened hand. If the filter is very
dirty, it can be cleaned under running water.
6. Reinstall the rear filter to the condenser filter (fig.:
47).
7. To reinstall the condenser filter, follow the above
steps 3 to 1 in reverse order.

Clean the machine
▶ Use a soft cloth with soap liquid to clean the ma-
chine case and rubber components (fig.: 51).
▶ Do not use organic chemicals or corrosive sol-
vents.
Notice
During the drying, moisture may accumulate between windows and seal. It does not af-
fect the function of the dryer.
Clean the front of the heat exchanger
Approximately all 10 drying cycles the front of the
heat exchanger should be cleaned from fluff by using
a sponge or vacuum cleaner (fig.: 48/49). Please use
household gloves. The fluff can remove easiely when
they have been sprayed with water previously.
On this occasion the ventillation slots should be vacu-
umed also (fig.: 50)

WARNING!
Unplug the machine during cleaning and mainte-
nance.
Clean the drum
▶ After some operation time, fabric care agents or
calcium contained in the water can form an almost
invisible film on the inside of the drum. Use a damp
cloth and some detergent to remove it (fig.: 52). Do
not use any organic solvent or corrosive agent to
avoid damage to the appliance.
▶ Remove metal parts such as needles, coins, etc.
from the drum which were accidentally dried with
the laundry, because it can cause rusting.
▶ For removing rust stains, use a non-chloride clean-
er. Note the safety instructions of the cleaning
agent manufacturer!
▶ Do not use any hard objects or steel wool for clean-
ing.
