How to de-fluff a washer-dryer with no lint filter?

I have a washer-dryer which is mostly fairly decent, but has recently started depositing fluff/lint on some items when washed (tights especially seem to attract the stuff).

In a normal tumble-dryer I'd take this as a sign that I've failed to clean the lint filter, but this model doesn't have a lint filter - is there any easy way that I'm missing to clean out any accumulated fluff? I presume it builds up during drying as normal, so I'm surprised by the lack of a filter. I'm running a (very hot) cleaning cycle to see if that helps, but other tips are very welcome please!

Google the model you have? I have a Siemens w/dryer, which has a "fluff clean" program.

I've tried that sadly - it didn't throw up anything other than the regular 'clean' process, which is just to run a boil wash.

I had one of these. I stopped using the dryer function as it was making the machine play up. The manual and google were no help - there was no filter to clean.
