Caring for your Dryer
Your tumble dryer needs very little attention. The following simple steps
will keep it performing well.
Switch off electricity and remove plug.
Always clean the filter and turn the drum by hand to check that small
items like handkerchiefs do not get missed.
Clean exterior metal and plastic surfaces with a damp cloth or silicon
polish only. Regularly check and clean if necessary, the vent hose and any
permanent venting fixture to ensure that there has been no
accumulation of fluff or lint during the drying process.
Clean fluff from the area below the fluff filter and the rear vent tube.
Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring agents, acids, chlorine bleach or
metal polish to clean any part of the machine. These could damage the
machine.
Your tumble dryer uses special bearing components. Lubrication by the
user is not necessary and must not be attempted.
We strongly recommend that all appliances are regularly checked for
electrical and mechanical safety.
