Care
- Lint Filter Cleaning: *After every cycle*, remove and clean the lint filter located inside the door opening. This is crucial for efficient drying and preventing fire hazards.
- Heat Exchanger Cleaning: Periodically clean the heat exchanger, usually located behind a removable cover at the bottom of the dryer. Refer to your user manual for specific instructions on how often and how to clean this component, as blockages can significantly reduce efficiency.
- Water Tank Emptying: Empty the condensed water tank *after every cycle* to prevent it from overflowing and to ensure the dryer continues to operate.
- Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the dryer with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
- Drum Cleaning: If residue builds up in the drum, wipe it with a damp cloth or a mild detergent solution. Ensure the drum is dry before loading clothes.
