  • 1. Every cycle
    When the dryer has finished and has cooled down, clean out any fluff from the lint filter. Some filters can be washed under the tap.
  • 2. Regularly clean the door seals
    Keeping the door seals clean will keep any bacteria from developing and producing any bad smells.
  • 3. Every 6 months
    Remove the lint filter and vacuum around the lint trap (if your dryer has this).
  • 4. Every 6 months
    Remove and clean the vent pipe. Itʼs also a good idea at this time to vacuum around the back of the machine removing any dust from the cooling air intakes and the vent tube connections.
