Electrical Connection
Connect the appliance to a properly earthed power socket. Ensure the voltage and frequency match the specifications on the rating plate of the appliance.

Operating Instructions
Before Each Use

Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your tumble dryer.
Cleaning the Lint Filter
The lint filter must be cleaned after every drying cycle. Pull out the filter, remove any lint, and rinse under running water if necessary. Ensure it is completely dry before reinserting.
Emptying the Water Container
If you are not using the direct drain option, the water container must be emptied after each cycle. Pull out the container, pour out the water, and reinsert it securely.
Cleaning the Heat Exchanger/Condenser
For heat pump dryers, the heat exchanger (condenser) should be cleaned periodically, typically every few months or as indicated by the appliance. Refer to the appliance's specific instructions for accessing and cleaning the heat exchanger to maintain energy efficiency.
