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.

ENGLISH 21

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.

10.5 Cleaning the drum
