. This ensures that energy is saved during tumble drying. • Always use the tumble dryer at full load to save energy: single items and small loads may take longer to dry. • Clean the filter at the end of each cycle to reduce energy consumption costs (see Care and maintenance). 8 Care and maintenance (Î) inDesiT Disconnecting the power supply ! Disconnect the dryer when not in use or during cleaning and maintenance operations. Cleaning the filter after each cycle The filter is a fundamental component of the dryer: its function is to collect lint and fluff that form during drying. Clean the filter once drying is completed, by rinsing it under running water or cleaning it with a vacuum cleaner. Should the filter become clogged, the flow of air inside the dryer will be seriously hampered: drying times becomes longer and more energy is consumed. Moreover, the dryer may become damaged. ! Do not use solvents or abrasives. ! The dryer uses ball bearing components that do not require lubrication. ! Have the dryer checked regularly by authorised technical personnel in order to ensure that the electrical and mechanical parts work safely (see Assistance). Removing the filter: 1. Pull the filter’s plastic handle upwards (see Picture). 2. Clean the fluff off the filter and replace it correctly. Ensure that the filter is placed flush with the dryer seal. ! Do not use the dryer unless the filter has been replaced in its holder. Checking the drum after each cycle Rotate the drum manually to remove smaller items (handkerchiefs) that could have been left inside the dryer. Cleaning the drum ! Avoid using abrasives, steel wool or stainless steel cleaning agents to clean the drum. A coloured film may appear on the stainless steel drum surface: it may be caused by a combination of water and/or cleaning agents such as wash-softeners. This coloured film does not affect the dryer’s performance. Cleaning the tumble dryer • The external metal and plastic parts and the rubber parts can be cleaned with the aid of a damp cloth. • Clean the front air intake grille regularly (every 6 months) with a vacuum cleaner to remove any lint, fluff or dust deposits. Furthermore, remove any lint deposits from the front part of the condenser and from the filter area, using a vacuum cleaner every so often. 9 Troubleshooting If you feel that the dryer is not working properly, consult the following troubleshooting suggestions before contacting the Technical Assistance Centre (see Assistance). Problem: Possible causes / Solutions: The dryer does not start. Drying times are too long. The dryer is noisy during the first few minutes of operation. The plug has not been inserted far enough into the socket to make contact. There has been a power cut. The fuse has burned out. Try connecting another appliance to the same socket. If an extension cord is used, try connecting the dryer plug directly into the socket. The door has not been closed properly. The programme has not been set correctly (see How to carry out a drying cycle). The START button has not been pressed (see How to carry out a drying cycle). The filter has not been cleaned (see Care and maintenance). An incorrect drying time was selected for the type of load (see Laundry). The items are too wet (see Laundry). The dryer is overloaded (see Laundry). The flexible ventilation hose may be blocked (see Installation). The air inlet may be blocked or obstructed (see Installation). The fixed ventilation flap, on the protective weatherproof cover, may be obstructed (see Installation). This is normal, especially if the dryer has not been used for a long time. If the noise persists during the entire cycle, contact the Technical Assistance Centre. 10 Assistance (î) inDesiT Before contacting the Technical Assistance Centre: • Follow the troubleshooting guide to check whether problems can be solved personally (see Troubleshooting). • If not, switch the dryer off and contact the Technical Assistance Centre closest to you.
