dryer.

d WARNING d
Remove gas connection before
moving the dryer to clean the duct.

connection when cleaning the duct.
Cleaning the moisture
sensor
The moisture sensor has to be cleaned
because a fine layer of transparent
buildup is deposited on the sensors.
This deposit can easily be removed by
wiping the sensors (the two bars next
to the lint filter) with a cloth and a little
white vinegar.
Use white vinegar only!
Clean the moisture sensor once a
month.
Cleaning the bearing
shield
Over time, fluff from the drying process
collects in the bearing shield.
This fluff can be easily removed using
your vacuum cleaner, at least once a
month.
