HINTS AND TIPS

PREPARING THE LAUNDRY

Very often the clothes after washing cycle are kneaded and tangled altogether.
Drying kneaded and tangled clothes is inefficient.
To assure proper air flow and even drying it is recommended to shake and load one by one the clothes to the tumble dryer.

To assure proper drying process:

• Close the zips.
• Close the fasteners of duvet covers.
• Do not dry ties or ribbons loose (e.g. apron ribbons). Tie them before you start a programme.
• Remove all items from pockets.
• Turn items with the internal layer made of cotton inside out. Cotton layer must be faced outwards.
• Always set the programme suitable for the type of laundry.
• Do not put light and dark colours together.
• Use suitable programme for cottons, jersey and knitwear to reduce shrinkage.
• Do not exceed the maximum load stated in the programmes or shown on the display.
• Dry only the laundry that is suitable for tumble drying. Refer to the fabric label on the items.
• Do not dry large and small items together. Small items can be trapped inside the large items and remain wet.
• Shake the large clothes, fabrics before placing in the tumble dryer. It is to avoid moist places inside the fabric after the drying cycle.

CARE AND CLEANING

CLEANING THE FILTER

Avoid the use of water to clean the filter. Instead throw away lint in the dustbin ( avoid dispersion of plastic fiber in water ambient).

To achieve the best drying performances clean the filter regularly, clogged filter lead to longer cycles and energy consumption increase. Use your hand to clean the filter, and if necessary, a vacuum cleaner.

5. ¹⁾
   

1. If necessary remove fluff from the filter socket and gasket. You can use a vacuum cleaner.

EMPTYING THE WATER CONTAINER

You can use the water from the water container as an alternative to distilled

To assure best drying results the appliance is equipped with metal humidity sensor. It is placed on the inner side of the door area. Over usage time the surface of the sensor may get dirty what deteriorates the drying performance. We recommend to clean the sensor at least 3 or 4 times or if you observe the drop of drying performance.

To clean you can use harder side of dish-washing sponge and bit of vinegar or dish soap.
To clean the sensor:

1. Open the loading door.
2. Clean the surfaces of the humidity sensor wiping off the metal surface several times.
   

CLEANING THE DRUM

Disconnect the appliance before you clean it.
