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.
If this is not done a safety device trips: pilot light
on the control panel comes on and the
programme stops, leaving the laundry damp.
The reservoir can be emptied even in the middle of a
programme
Proceed as follows:
• Open the small door at the lower part of the
cabinet
• Turn the yellow stop upwards
• Pull out the reservoir
• Open the small cover and let water flow down
• Close the small cover and re-insert correctly the
reservoir
•
Push it until it clicks and turn the yellow stop
downwards to lock firmly it
•
• Close the small door and press the
START/PAUSE button again to allow the
programme to continue.
The reservoir must be re-inserted correctly.
Push it until it clicks.
The machine can remain unactive some seconds
before starting the programme and during this period
the water container light remains alight.
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 grille
Using a vacuum cleaner remove the fluff from the air
intake grille at the back of the appliance.
