Lint filter
Lint is generally formed during wearing and washing. Lint and
fibers released from clothes during the drying cycle are collected
in the lint filter.
It is important to clean the 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 your dryer. AeroCare will
flash the "Clean Lint Filter" signal light on the panel each time
you power your dryer on to remind you to clean the lint filter.
Remove the lint filter from the housing and wipe the surface with your fingers. It is easier to
remove the lint when your fingers are moistened. A clean lint filter will ensure your clothes
remain lint-free and your dryer will operate at maximum efficiency.
Be sure to replace the lint filter before using the dryer.
Important!
If the lint filter becomes damaged, contact Fisher & Paykel (refer to page 86) to arrange getting a
new filter. Do not operate your dryer with a damaged lint filter or without the lint filter in place,
as this will cause damage to your dryer.
Exhaust duct
The dryer exhaust ducting must be inspected and cleaned
periodically by an Authorized Service Agent to remove
accumulated lint and prevent clogging. This will help keep your
dryer operating at optimum performance. A partially clogged
exhaust can lengthen the drying time.
To clean the exhaust duct follow these steps:
Turn off the electrical supply by disconnecting the plug from the
1
power socket.
Disconnect the exhaust duct from the dryer.
2
Vacuum the exhaust duct with the hose attachment or attach a
3
rag to a pole or drain cleaning wire and clean the duct.
