furniture units adjacent to it. This ensures adequate air circulation.

Make sure the air inlets on the rear panel are not blocked or obstructed.

•You should also make sure that the room in which the tumble dryer is installed is not damp, and that it is adequately ventilated.

•! We do not recommend that the dryer is installed in a cupboard but the dryer must never be installed behind a lockable door, a sliding door or a door with a hinge on the opposite side to that of the dryer door.

Ventilation

This appliance gently dries laundry by taking in COOL, clean and relatively dry air, heating it and passing it through the fabric. To facilitate the drying process, damp air is expelled at the rear, through a ventilation hose. When the dryer is in use, there has to be adequate ventilation to avoid a back flow

of gases into the room from appliances burning other fuels, including open fires.

Mobile ventilation system

When using the tumble dryer with the mobile ventilation system, a ventilation hose must be connected. The hose should be securely fastened to the ventilation hole at the rear of the appliance (see “Description of the tumble dryer”). We recommend the hose is connected to an outlet near the tumble dryer, if possible. If it cannot be installed in a permanent spot, the tumble dryer will still function perfectly well if the ventilation hose is passed through a partially- opened window.

!Make sure you do not point the ventilation hose towards the air inlet, which is located on the rear of the appliance.

!The ventilation hose should not exceed a maximum length of 2.4 metres; it should also be shaken frequently to remove any fluff, dust or water deposits inside it. Make sure you do not crush the hose.

Fixed ventilation system

We recommend the ventilation hose is connected to a ventilation system for windows or doors, available from the retailer which originally sold you the appliance or from your local spare parts stockist.

Wall ventilation hole

1. Leave an opening in the wall B to the left of the tumble dryer

installation site.

2.Make the hose as short and straight as possible, in order

to prevent any moisture from condensing and leaking back

Ainto the appliance.

3.The hole in the wall must also be straight and pointing downwards, so that the flow of air coming out is not impeded.

Areas A and B should be checked frequently, to prevent the accumulation of fluff or debris, particularly if the tumble dryer is used very often. The hose adaptor must be fitted correctly, in order to prevent damp air from coming back into the room.

Window ventilation hole

The ventilation hole should be directly behind the dryer in order to keep the hose as short as possible.

!Make sure you do not push the tumble dryer too far backwards, as this could lead to the ventilation hose being crushed, bent or even

disconnected.

!There should be no cuts, kinks or “U”-shaped bends in the hose, as these could impede ventilation or trap condensation.

Ventilation through an open window

The end of the hose must be facing downwards, in order to prevent the hot, damp air from forming condensation in the room or the tumble dryer.

!Make sure that the tumble dryer is adequately ventilated, and that the end of the ventilation hose is not pointing towards the air inlet pipe on the rear of the appliance.

!The ventilation hose must always be fitted to ensure optimum performance.

!Make sure that the ventilation hose and the air inlet vents are not obstructed or blocked.

!Do not let the tumble dryer recirculate exhaust air.

!Improper use of the tumble dryer may result in fire hazards.

!The air emitted by the tumble dryer must not be expelled in the same duct as used for the fumes produced by different appliances which burn gas or other fuels.

!Do not discharge the exhaust air into an extraction system or any duct with an extractor fan. This will affect the way the thermal controls operate and can result in a fire hazard.
