Important! The hot air emitted by the tumble dryer can reach temperatures of up to 60°C. The appliance must therefore not be installed on floors which are not resistant to high temperatures.

When operating the tumble dryer, the room temperature must not be lower than +5°C and higher than +35°C, as it may affect the performance of the appliance.

Warning! Should the appliance be moved, it must be transported vertically.

Warning! The appliance must not be installed behind the lockable door, a sliding door or a door

with a hinge on the opposite side to that of the appliance.

Fitting the vent hose

To simplify the installation, there is a choice of vent out- lets: one at the back, the others in the left and right-hand side. Connect the hose to whichever is the more conven- ient by pulling the ring nut (A) from the vent outlet at the back, screwing it on to the hose and pushing it firmly back into place. The unused vents should now be sealed with the special snap covers provided.

If the hose is long and the

 

room temperature low, the

 

moisture might condense to

 

water inside the hose. This

 

is an unavoidable natural

 

phenomenon. To prevent

 

this water from Iying in the

B

hose or flowing back into the

tumble dryer, it is advisable

 

to drill a small hole (via. 3 mm) in the lowest point of the hose and to place a small container below it. (See picture, point B).

Once connected to the dryer, run the vent hose to the desired outlet point, ensuring that the run’s overall length is less than 2 m, and that it contains no more than two bends. As to the outlet itself, if you have decided on a fixed wall/window grille, a good local builder’s merchant should be able to supply you with the necessary fittings and installation advice.

Warning!

It is important not to connect the vent hose to, for example, a cooker hood, or

a chimney or flue pipe designed to carry the

exhaust from a fuel burning appliance.

Note that to avoid conden-

sation problems, it is essential that the dryer be fitted with the flexible hose to carry its “exhaust” at least beyond the kitchen units; preferable outside the kitchen. In order to prevent the appliance from overheating, it is important that the steam exhaust is unobstructed. Therefore, in case of a permanent hose fitted to an exterior wall or ceiling, it must be ensured an exhaust capacity of at least 150 m3/ h. If the dryer is fitted next to kitchen units, make sure that the vent hose is not squashed. If the hose is partially squashed, drying efficiency will be reduced, resulting in
