Maintenance
Dry filter (continued)
Return the dry filter to its original state, and
reinsert it securely.
If filter B detaches, align filter B with the shafts on the
main body of the dry filter, and push it in vertically.
Reinsert the dry filter securely.
If it is not securely inserted, steam may leak out of the area surrounding the filter during drying operations,
resulting in louder operation noise.
If you continue operations while [DRY FILTER] and "C06" are displayed, longer drying times and poor drying may result.
When cleaning the dry filter with water, wash it gently with your hands. Do not use detergent or bleach.
If [DRY FILTER] and "C06" still appear when you turn on the power after reinserting the dry filter, pressing the
[START] button will turn them off.
These indications also appear after every 25 times the [WASH DRY] and [DRY] operations are used. (They will
appear even if lint buildup is low.)
The dry filter is a consumable part. If the filter mesh breaks, contact your dealer for a replacement.
