CARING FOR YOUR DRYER
When you have finished using your dryer
Unplug the machine from the power socket.
Wipe around the door to remove any remaining condensation and foreign matter.
Clear the lint filter and empty the water tank (if not set up to automatically drain).
Cleaning your dryer
Before you start cleaning your dryer, ensure that it is disconnected from the power
(ieunplug the machine from the power socket).
Cleaning the control panel and outer surfaces of the dryer
Use a soft damp cloth to wipe all surfaces, then wipe dry. Avoid using chemical or
scouring cleaners, as these will damage the paint and plastic surfaces of your dryer.
Cleaning the inside of your dryer
It is important that you occasionally clean the inside of your dryer. If the drum has
anyresidual dirt or lint stuck to it, remove this and wipe it clean with a damp cloth.
Donot leave any metal objects in the drum, as these may cause rust.
Cleaning the filters
Cleaning the door lint filter
Lint is generally formed during wearing and washing. Fibres (eglint) released
fromtheclothes during the drying cycle are collected in the lint filter.
It is important to clean the door lint filter after every load, as the lint produced
in the drying process can become a fire hazard if it is allowed to accumulate in or
around yourdryer.
A warning light will flash at the start of every cycle to
remind you to clean the door lint filter, then turns off
once you touch
to start your cycle.
The warning light will flash on and off during the
cycle if the door lint filter becomes blocked. When
this occurs the door lint filter should be cleaned
immediately.
The door lint filter is located in the door opening
(atthe bottom).
To clean the door lint filter:
1 Open the dryer door.
2 Remove the filter by pulling it up and out of the filter
slot. Open it out and wipe the surfaces clean with
your hand.
3 Close the filter and place it back in the opening.
Ensurethe filter is fitted correctly back in place
before operating the dryer.
IMPORTANT!
The door lint filter must be cleaned at the beginning of each cycle. Lint becomes
afire hazard if left to build up, and will reduce the efficiency of your dryer.
If the door lint filter becomes damaged, contact your Fisher & Paykel trained
andsupported service technician to arrange getting a new filter.
Donotoperate your dryer with a damaged door lint filteror without the
filter in place, as this will causedamage to your dryer and is a firehazard.
