Installation

Unpacking

All transit bolts and packing must be removed before using the appliance.

Slide out the polythene bag with the

polystyrene stuffing before using the appliance Pull off adhesive strips from inside machine on top of drum.

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

Do not install the appliance behind

a door that locks

a sliding door

a door with a hinge that lies opposite the hinge of the appliance.

Positioning

It is recommended that, for your convenience, the machine is positioned close to your washing machine. Whilst drying, the tumble dryer will expel a certain amount of warm, very moist air, and this should be removed from the room as quickly as possible to prevent condensation. In an extremely well ventilated room or close to an open window, this may occur naturally.

However, in general, it is better to carry the dryer's exhaust outside via the 100

mmdiameter flexible hose supplied with the appliance; ending either temporarily at an open window, or

permanently at a fixed ventilation grille,

GB

fitted to an exterior wall or window.

 

The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place, where dirt does not build up.

Make sure there are no obstructing items or material near the air-intake louvres provided at the back (e.g. paper, rags etc.). To keep vibration and noise to a minimum when the dryer is in use, it should be placed on a firm, level surface.

Once in its permanent operating position, check that the dryer is absolutely level with the aid of a spirit level. If it is not, raise or lower the feet until it is.

P0046

The feet must never be removed.

Do not restrict the floor clearance through deeppile carpets, strips of wood or similar. This might cause heat build-up which would interfere with the operation of the appliance.

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
