VENTILATION

Installation of the Discharge Hose

It is essential to use a venting hose to carry the hot moist air away from the dryer unless the dryer is situated in a open space with a good air flowaround it. Recirculation of the moist air will prevent the efficient operation of the dryer.

The hose is assembled to the machine as shown. The hose may be fitted through a wall or through an open door or window. The hose is 110mm in diameter and will extend 1.8 meters.

The following guidelines should be followed when installing the discharge hose.

Do not use two hoses joined together as the drying performance will be reduced.

Do not restrict the flow of air through the hose e.g. by kinking it or fitting a smaller diameter connector to mount to a wall opening.

Avoid the hose making U shaped curves as this will restrict the flow of air and increase the chance that water will collect in the hose.

Check the hose regularly to remove any build-up of fluff or water that may have collected in it.

The following diagrams give examples of good and bad installations.

Clothes Preparation

Make sure that the laundry you are going to dry is suitable for drying in a tumble dryer, as shown by the care symbols on each item.

Check that all fastenings are closed and that pockets are empty. Turn the articles inside out. Place clothes loosely in the drum to make sure that they don't get tangled.
