Ventilation
Adequate ventilation must be provided in the room where the tumble dryer is located to prevent gases from appliances burning other fuels, including open fires, being drawn into the room during operation of the tumble dryer.
●Exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels.
●Check regularly that the air flowing through the dryer is not restricted.
●Check the fluff filter after use, and clean, if necessary.
●The inlet and outlets should be kept free from obstructions. To ensure adequate ventilation the space between the bottom of the machine and the floor must not be obstructed. There should be a gap of at least 12mm between the machine and any obstructions.
●Prevent items from falling or collecting behind the dryer as these may obstruct the air inlet and outlet.
●NEVER install the dryer up against curtains.
