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 .
CAUTION!
Avoid the use of water to
clean the filter. Instead throw
away lint in the dustbin
( avoid dispersion of plastic
fiber in water ambient).
1. Open the door. Pull the filter up.

10.4 Cleaning the humidity
sensor
10.5 Cleaning the drum
WARNING!
Disconnect the appliance
before you clean it.
CAUTION!
Risk of humidity sensor
damage. Do not use
abrasive materials or steel
wool to clean the sensor.
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 which 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.
Use a standard neutral soap detergent to
clean the inner surface of the drum and
drum lifters. Dry the cleaned surfaces
with a soft cloth.
CAUTION!
Do not use abrasive
materials or steel wool to
clean the drum.
10.6 Cleaning the control panel and housing
Use a standard neutral soap detergent to
clean the control panel and housing.
Use a moist cloth to clean. Dry the
cleaned surfaces with a soft cloth.
CAUTION!
Do not use furniture cleaning
agents or cleaning agents
which can cause corrosion.
10.7 Cleaning the airflow slots
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove fluff
from the airflow slots.
