Cleaning and Maintenance
1 Cleaning the surface
Wipe off the dusts and dirties on the body of the dryer and the surface
of the main control panel by a cleaning cloth. Remember not use any organic
solvent or corrosive agent in cleaning to avoid damage to the machine.
2. Cleaning the filter screen
To ensure a good ventilation effect during
drying, the filter screen must be cleaned after
every drying program is complete.
Open the door to remove the filter screen
from the machine. Open the screen and clean
off the lints on the screen and handle by a wet
towel. After cleaning, put the screen back in place.
3. Empty the condensate collection box
During the operation of a program, steam
condenses into water is collected in the box.
The box must be emptied in time after the
program is complete.
- Hold the handle of the box and take out the
box. When the box is taken out, keep it level
to prevent the condensate from overflowing;
- Pour away the condensate water. Note: the
condensate water can not be used for drink or
for food processing;
- Put the box back in place.
If the box has not been cleaned in time, the
dryer will alarm automatically when the box
is full. The indicator light is on when the box
is emptied and the dryer will stop. It will not
restart until the box is emptied.
4.Cleaning condenser
The condenser must be cleaned monthly.
Cut off power supply before cleaning.
- Hold the protrusions on both sides of the
lower deco panel and open the lower deco
panel;

Cleaning and Maintenance
- Using a coin or other tool, push the slides on the cover to the position
as shown in the figure and then remove the cover;
- Turn the condenser's handle 90 degrees in the direction as shown in
the figure;
- Remove the condenser from the dryer;
- Clean the condenser by a brush or flush it by a water jet;
Note: Do not use a sharp tool in cleaning the heat exchanger, otherwise
it may damage its sealing performance;
- Put the condenser back in place and lock up the cover;
- Put the lower deco panel back in place.
5. Cleaning the drum
After the dryer has operated for
a time, fabric caring agents or
calcium contained in the water will
form an almost invisible segregation
layer on the inside of the drum.
This makes the dryer not able to
reliably and accurately identify the
dryness of the laundry. So the inside
of the drum, especially the stainless
steel pieces on the blades must be
cleaned regularly by a wet cloth.
