Cleaning the Filter Drawer
• Lint and fibres that could not be captured by the lint
filter are blocked in the filter drawer, which should also be
cleaned after each drying process. It is located behind the
maintenance cover and contains a two-level filter: a filter
drawer sponge and a filter cloth.
• Push down the locking latch to the maintenance cover
(Fig. 4a).
• Unlock the fixer (Fig. 4b).
• Pull out the filter drawer (Fig. 4c).
• Remove any lint, fibres and textile threads from the filter
cloth by hand or with a soft brush or cloth (Fig. 4d). When
you notice a layer of lint or debris that may lead to clogging
of the filter cloth, clean off the layer by washing the filter
in warm water. Let the filter cloth dry thoroughly before
installing it back in the filter drawer.
• Wash the filter drawer sponge by hand to remove any fibres
and lint from the surface. After washing the sponge, squeeze
it by hand and remove the excess water. Thoroughly dry the
sponge before reinstalling it.
• Close the maintenance cover.
Afterwards
• At the end of the drying program, when the drum has stopped
rotating, unplug the machine, open the door and take out your
washing.
• When the drum has cooled, take the lint filter case out of the
door opening (Fig. 3a) and wipe or brush it clean. If required,
wash the filter in warm water, rinse and let dry. When it is
completely dry, refit the filter into the door opening.
• Unless you have the drain hose connected, you will also have
to empty the water container after every drying cycle (Fig. 3b).
• Hold the container with both hands and pull it out of the dryer
housing. Tilt it over a sink and pour out the water (Fig. 3c).
• Wipe the container dry, then reinsert it into its space in the
dryer housing.
