7.1 Fibre Filters (internal and 

external filters) / Cleaning of the 

Interior Surface of the Loading Door

The hair and fibres that are separated from the 

laundry during drying process is collected by 

the Fibre Filter. 

After each drying cycle, clean the 

fibre filter and the inner surface of 

the loading door.

NOTICE

Your drying machine has 2 fibre 

filters with one placed inside the 

other. Do not operate the product 

without the fibre filters.

To clean the fibre filter:

•  Open the loading door.

•  Hold the first part (inner filter) of the two 

part fibre filter and remove it by pulling it 

upwards.

•  Remove the second part (outer filter) by 

pulling it upwards.

Ensure that hair, fibre and cotton 

balls do not fall into the slot where 

the filters are installed.

•  Open both of the fibre filters (outer and inner) 

and remove the fibres with your hands or 

with the brush on the air deflector. You can 

clean the hair in the filters with a vacuum 

cleaner.

•  Clean both filters under water running in 

reverse direction of fibre accumulation or 

with a soft brush. Dry the filter before placing 

it back.
