A warning will appear on the display unit that the condensate tank has to be emptied. Pull out the condensate tank from the dryer, then turn it upside down over a washbasin, sink, or any suitably sized vessel. 1 2 Discharge the water through the condensate drain opening.
CLEANING THE HEAT PUMP FILTER Before cleaning, make sure to switch off the appliance and disconnect it from the power mains (unplug the power cord from the outlet). During cleaning, some water may be spilled. It is therefore recommended to place an absorbent cloth on the floor. Open the outer cover. 1 Hold the levers on the inside cover and rotate them upwards. Remove the inside cover. 2 3 Use the handle to pull out the heat pump filter. Push the foam part of the heat pump filter from the housing.
