Steps:

  1. Switch the dryer off at the power supply.
  2. Unplug the dryer before removing the water container.
  3. Keep the plug, socket, and surrounding floor dry while handling the container.
  4. Let the dryer cool if it has just finished a drying cycle.
  5. Keep a towel nearby if you want to wipe up drips or spills.
  6. Empty the water container when it contains water, when the Empty Water light appears, or before it becomes completely full.
  7. A completely full water container will stop the tumble dryer from working.
  8. The water container can get very full during normal drying.
  9. Stand in front of the dryer and locate the water container in the top-left corner.
  10. Pull the water container straight out of its slot.
  11. Keep the container level as you carry it to a sink.
  12. Pour the water into a sink.
  13. Use the smaller hole in the corner of the container to drain the last drops.
  14. Check that the container is completely empty.
  15. Slide the empty water container back into the top-left slot.
  16. Do not force the container into place.
  17. The container should slide in easily when it is aligned correctly.
  18. Plug the dryer back in and switch it on at the power supply.
  19. Start a drying cycle only after the water container is empty and fully installed.
  20. The Empty Water, Clean Filter, and Clean Condenser lights may stay on briefly until the cycle starts and the sensors respond.
  21. If the dryer still shows an Empty Water warning, empty and reinstall the container again before continuing.
