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.
Fitting the vent hose
A special stacking kit is available through
your local Service Force Centre. To
simplify the installation, there is a choice
of vent outlets: one at the back, the
others in the left and right-hand side.
Connect the hose to whichever is the
more convenient 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.
Advice: If the hose is long and the

room temperature low, the moisture
might condense inside the hose. This
is an unavoidable natural phenomenon.
To prevent this water from Iying in the
hose or flowing back into the tumble
dryer, it is advisable to drill a small hole
(dia. 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.
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.
