Installation – Electronic and Auto-timer 4.5 kg dryers

Correct installation is very important for all dryers to ensure maximum efficiency and safety.

Important!

Never run the dryer unless the airflow system is free from obstruction.

There must be adequate ventilation to avoid the backflow of gases into the room from appliances burning fuels, including open fires, when operating the dryer.

Exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.

External venting

The dryer has been designed to be externally vented to provide the following advantages: Ensures optimum efficiency by preventing recirculation of moist air.

Eliminates condensation on walls and ceilings. Reduces the chance of lint being sucked into the dryer. Prevents lint and other fine particles being blown into the room.

All external venting systems should be: Made from galvanised metal pipe or be sleeved with

a galvanised metal pipe where the vent system goes through a wall or ceiling.

Exhausted outside and not into another confined space.

Fitted with a vent cap outside to stop rain water entering the dryer exhaust system.

Angled to avoid condensation running back into the dryer.

Less than 2 m long. Special installation is required for ducting over 2 m. Contact your Authorised Service Centre.

DO NOT use the internal vent deflector as an external weather cap as this will cause restriction of the airflow and a loss in performance.
