Installation

Where to install the tumble dryer

EN	• Install the dryer far from gas
	• Install the dryer far from gas
	ranges, stoves, radiators or	m
	hobs, as flames may damage it.	m
	If the dryer is installed below a	10
	worktop, ensure there are 10
	mm between the upper panel of
	the dryer and any objects abo-	15 mm	15 mm
	ve it, and 15 mm between the	15 mm	15 mm
	ve it, and 15 mm between the

sides of the machine and the walls or furniture units adjacent to it. This ensures adequate air circulation.

Ventilation

•The room must be adequately ventilated while the dryer is running. Make sure that the dryer is installed in a room free of humidity and with adequate air circulation. The flow of air around the dryer is essential to allow water to condense du- ring drying; the dryer will not function properly if it is placed in an enclosed space or inside a cabinet.

!Some condensation may form if the dryer is used in a small or cold room.

!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.

Water drain

If your dryer is installed next to a drain the water can be plumbed into this drain. This does away with the need to empty the water container. If the dryer is stacked onto or installed next to a washing machine it can share the same drain. The height of the drain must be less than 3’ (1 m) from the bottom of the dryer.

Remove existing hose from position shown in picture A and fit a suitable length of hose and connect as shown in picture B.

!Make sure that the hose is not squashed or kinked

when the dryer is in its final location.

Electrical connections

Before plugging the appliance into the socket, check the following:

• Make sure your hands are dry.

• The socket must have an earth connection.

• The socket must be able to withstand the machine’s ma-

ximum power output as indicated on the rating plate (see

Description of the tumble dryer).

• The power supply voltage must fall within the values indica-

ted on the data plate (see Description of the tumble dryer).

• The socket must be compatible with the dryer’s plug. Should this not be the case, replace the plug or the socket.

! Do not use extension cords.

! The dryer must not be installed outdoors, even if the space is sheltered. It can be very dangerous if exposed to rain or storms. ! Once installed, the dryer’s electrical wire and plug must be within reach.

! The power cord must not be bent or squashed.

! The power cord is supplied fitted with a BS1363 plug and with a 13 amp BS1362 fuse. If it is necessary to fit a replacement fuse, it must be a 13 Amp ASTA approved to BS1362 type. WARNING: The plug must not be used without a fuse cover. If a replacement fuse holder/cover is required, it must be of the same colour coding or wording as shown on the base of the plug. Replacements are available from authorised dealers.

!If the plug being replaced is a non-rewirable type, then the cut-off plug must be disposed of safely. DO NOT leave it where it can be inserted into a socket and create a shock hazard.

!The power cord should be checked periodically and replaced by a cord specially prepared for this dryer and fitted only by authorized technicians (see Service). New or longer power cords are supplied at an extra charge by authorized dealers.

!The manufacturer denies any responsibility should any of these rules not be followed.

!If in doubt about any of the above consult a qualified electrician.
