  • Clean the lint filters in the proper way referring to the following instructions. Failure to do so, the lint that is accumulated on the heat exchanger may not be cleaned properly.

  • When the lint drops into the filter inlet, it may cause less efficient drying performance and increase of drying time.

Note
  • Unload all of the laundries from the appliance before pull out the lint filters.

  • Put the lint filters back in place after cleaning. If the lint filters are not in the appliance, you can not operate the appliance.

  • when cleaning the filters, the lint should be thrown in the trash and not washed through the drain in order to avoid spreading microplastics in the used water system.
