Clean it with a brush and rinse it under the shower if
necessary.

Also clean the outside, removing all fluff.

Clean the rubber seal round the condenser cabinet and in
the inner part of the small door with a damp cloth.

Important! Do not use pointed objects or utensils to
clean the spaces between the plates, as this could damage
the condenser and make it permeable.

Re-fit the condenser, turn the red stops upwards and
close the door.

Do not use this appliance if the

condenser has not been fitted.

Emptying the water reservoir

Water extracted from the laundry condenses inside the
machine and is collected in a reservoir.
The reservoir must be emptied after each drying cycle to
ensure efficient operation when the machine is next used.
The FULL TANK light reminds you to perform this
operation.

Proceed as follows:

• Pull out the reservoir

• Turn it upside down and let water empty

• Re-fit the reservoir

The reservoir must be re-inserted correctly.

If this is not done the pilot light FULL TANK comes on
during next drying and the programme stops, leaving the
laundry damp. The buzzer will sound.

After inserting the reservoir press the START/PAUSE
button again to allow the programme to continue.

Handy tip: The condensed water may be used in a
steam iron or to top up a battery, etc. In this case it must
be filtered (e.g. through a coffee filter).

Cleaning the air intake grill

Using a vacuum cleaner remove the fluff from the air
intake grill at the back of the appliance

.

Cleaning the drum

If the laundry is not drying to the level of dryness you
have set, either too dry or too damp, we advise you to
clean the inside of the drum with a cloth soaked in
vinegar.

This will eliminate the slight residues of detergent and
softeners used in the washing, or to any residues of lime
contained in the water. A build up of these residues will
prevent the sensors from correctly measuring the degree
of dryness of the laundry.
