Important Information
! You MUST clean the fluff filter after EVERY drying
cycle.
Fluff 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.
! You MUST empty the water container after EVERY
drying cycle.
Water Container...
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 drying cycle.
STEP 1.
Open the door of your
dryer.
STEP 2.
Pull out the filter (using
the two finger grips).
STEP 3.
Clean any fluff deposits
from the filter mesh.
STEP 4.
Refit the filter - NEVER
run the dryer without the
filter in position.
For your Condenser dryer to operate efficiently, you must follow the regular maintenance schedule shown below:
STEP 1.
Pull the water container
towards you and remove
it fully from the dryer.
STEP 2.
Empty all the water
collected in the water
container.
! Failure to empty the water container will result in:
- The machine will stop heating (so the load may still be wet at the end of the drying cycle).
- The ‘Empty Water’ message will tell you that the water container is full.
STEP 3.
Refit the water container,
ensuring that it is pushed
fully back into position.
! The ‘Empty Water’
message reminds you to
empty the water container
at the start and at the
end of each programme.
