Re-fit the condenser, turn the red stops upwards and close the door. Do not use this appliance if the condenser has not been fitted. Cleaning the drum When your laundry does not reach the desired degree of dryness, in other words, when it turns out either too dry or too damp, we advise you to clean the inside of the drum with a cloth soaked with vinegar. This will eliminate the slight patina that has formed in the drum (due to residues of detergent and softeners used in the washing, and to the lime contained in the water), which prevents the probes from detecting the correct degree of dryness. Emptying the water reservoir Water extracted from the laundry condenses inside the machine and is collected in a reservoir. [. . . ]
