What should I do when the filter alert blinks on the control panel?

How to clean a lint filter

Step 1. Open the dryer door and pull the filter upwards to remove it. Maintain the rubber sealing in place after removing the filter.

Step 2. Open the outer filter and remove the inner filter.

Step 3. Open each of the inner and outer filters and let them spread.

Step 4. Detach the lint from both filters and then clean them with a brush.

Step 5. Put the internal filter in the external filter and then return the lint filter to the in right position.

Note: While cleaning or removing the lint filter, do not shake or tap on the filter as that can damage it.

• Ensure that the lint filter is installed correctly before putting items in the dryer. The dryer must not operate without the lint filter.
• Add or remove items into or from the dryer with the lint filter installed. If the filter is not in place, small items can fall into the filter slot and cause the dryer to malfunction.
• Clean the lint filter after each load. Otherwise, the drying performance may decrease.
• Ensure the filter is cleaned and the water bottle is empty before the drying cycle.
• If the filter surface is wet, allow it to completely dry before use.
• Inserting the filter while it is wet can cause mold or odors to form and result in less drying.
• When cleaning or removing the lint filter, do not shake or tap on the filter as doing so can damage the filter.
