Cleaning the fluff filter
The fluff filter must be cleaned after each
load.
If you have very hard water, this can cause
limescale deposits in the fluff filter. Check
for any limescale deposits when cleaning
the fluff filter and, if necessary, wash down
the filter by hand.
1. Grasp the filter handle and pull it towards
you.
2. Pull the filter out of its holder.
3. Open the filter and remove the fluff from
all sides by hand. Use a soft dry cloth to
remove any coating.
4. Replace the filter in its holder.
Note!
If you have hard water, the filter should be
washed down with water to get rid of any
limescale deposits.
Dry the filter carefully with a towel.
Care and cleaning
Draining the condensed water
container
The condensed water container must be
drained after each load.
Remove the con-
densed water con-
tainer, empty out the
water and replace
the container.
If the condensed
water container
becomes full to
overflowing, the programme is interrupted
and the error message F1 is shown in the
display. Empty the container and press the
Start/Stop button to restart the programme.
See also Error Messages on page 16 in the
“Troubleshooting” chapter.
Note!
Do not remove the condensed water con-
tainer while the machine is switched on.
Cleaning the outside of the
machine
Clean the outside of the machine and the
programme panel with a mild cleaner. Do
not use any solvents, as these can damage
the machine. Do not hose down or spray
the machine with water.
Note!
Do not allow dust to accumulate around the
machine. Keep the area around the tumble
dryer clean and cool; dust, heat and mois-
ture prolong drying times.
