Important Information
For your Condenser dryer to operate efficiently, 
you must follow the regular maintenance schedule 
shown below:
Fluff Filter – You MUST Clean the fluff filter after 
every drying cycle. 
Step 1
Open the door of your dryer.   
   
  
Step 2 
Pull out the filter (using the two 
finger grips).
 
Step 3
Open the filter by releasing the  
  clip.
Step 4
Clean any fluff deposits from the  
 inside surface of the filter mesh. 
Step 5
Refit the filter – Never run the   
 dryer without a filter.   
Failure to clean the filter after every drying cycle will 
affect the drying performance of your machine – It 
will take longer to dry and as a result will use more 
electricity during drying. 
Water Container – You must empty the water 
container after every drying cycle. 
Step 1
Pull the water container  
 
towards you and remove it fully   
 from the dryer.
Step 2
Empty the Water from the    
Container. 
Step 3
Refit the Water Container    
ensuring that it is pushed fully  
 back into position. 
Failure to empty the Water Container will result in: 
- The machine will stop heating (so the load may be 
wet at the end of the cycle).
- The ”Empty Water” light will flash to tell you that 
the Container is full. 
!
 
The water bottle/clean filter 
light comes on when you select 
a programme to remind you to 
make sure that the water bottle 
is empty and that the filter is 
clean before starting a new 
cycle’
Priming the Water Collection System 
When your dryer is new, the Water Container will not 
collect Water until the system is primed, this will take 
1 or 2 drying cycles. Once primed it will collect Water 
during every cycle.
