Condenser sponge (for
products equipped with a heat
pump)
It is very important that the lint and fibres
are caught completely by the filters of
your machine which is equipped with
a condenser with heat pump. Failure in
functioning of the filters may cause a drop
in the performance or breakdown of your
machine. Therefore, in addition to the
“Cover Filter” and “Filter Drawer” filtering
phases in your machine, there is also a
“Condenser Sponge” piece for protection
purpose. If the “Cover Filter” and “Filter
Drawer” are functioning appropriately, ,
“the “Condenser Sponge” piece should
be checked every 3 months. Any layer of
accumulated lint on the sponge must be
removed.
C
If the lint and fibre collected on the
sponge is sparse and small, you do
not have to clean the sponge.
To clean the condenser sponge;
1 Take out the condenser sponge from
its place.
C
You can reach the condenser filter
after taking out the filter drawer.
C
A wire grid can be seen after taking
out the condenser sponge.
2 Clean the sponge and place it properly
back into its place. Put the sponge in
its housing between the wire grid and
plastic frame.
Important:
• When placing the condenser sponge,
make sure that some part or whole of
lint particles among the pores is not
important.
C
If the lint and fibres collected in the
drawer is sparse and small, you do
not have to clean the sponge.
6 Place the sponge back into its place.
7 Close the filter unit as to lock the red
button.
8. Place the filter drawer back into its
place and push forward until a click
sound is heard.
Important:
• Drying without the filter sponge will
damage your machine!
• A dirty heat pump will cause longer
drying periods and higher energy
consumption.
• Place the sponge as shown below,
without forcing it. Pay attention to seat
the left side of the sponge into the
appropriate housing in the filter drawer
as marked in the picture.
• Do not squeeze the sponge to make
it go into the inner frame as shown in
the picture below.
