Cleaning the filter
The tumble dryer cannot operate efficiently with a
clogged filter. The filter collects all the fluff which
forms during drying and it is therefore essential to
remove and clean this filter after each drying
programme using a damp cloth.

Pull the filter upwards in order to remove it.
Important: Remove the fluff around the filter too.
Do not use the appliance without filter.
You should not be alarmed by the amount of fluff
which collects on the filter; this is due to normal
wearing of the fabrics dried and not to incorrect
operation of your machine. Rubbing of the fibres
during normal wear and washing forms fluff. If
laundry is dried on a line, this fluff simply flies away,
whereas inside the tumble dryer it collects together
and swells considerably as a result of the drying
action.

Do not use this appliance if the condenser
has not been fitted.
Emptying the water reservoir
Water extracted from the laundry condenses inside
the machine and is collected in a reservoir.
The reservoir must be emptied after each drying
cycle to ensure efficient operation when the machine
is next used.
Important: should the reservoir be filled during a
drying programme, the light

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).
