Open Window Venting

In conjunction with the vent hose we recommend the use of a Wall/Window Vent Kit, part number 1740853. These are available from your retailer or nearest Spares Centre.

Fitting instructions are supplied with the kits, which can be mounted

Athrough a wall or window. Details of positioning are as follows:

For wall mounting break a hole through the wall to the left of the proposed position for the dryer, as viewed from the front. Keep the hose as short and straight as possible to prevent condensed moisture running back into the dryer. Similarly the duct inserted into the wall should slope downwards to the outside. The storm flap supplied with the vent kit should be discarded. Remove the grille (see Quick Guide) from the end of the vent hose supplied with your Tumble Dryer, this grille should be fitted to the outside of the wall vent in place of the storm flap.

If utilising an existing vent kit it is important that any storm flap fitted is discarded. Remove the grille (see Quick Guide) from the end of the vent

Bhose supplied with your Tumble Dryer, this grille should be fitted to the outside of the wall vent in place of the storm flap. Depending on the frequency of use, it is essential that the areas A and B in the illustrations are checked periodically and any fluff or debris removed. It is particularly important that the vent hose adaptor is fitted securely thus preventing any moisture laden air from being emitted back into the room.

For window venting with stacked dryer, the hole in the window should ideally be made below the outlet and the hose should be kept as short as possible. Remove the grille (see Quick Guide) from the end of the vent hose supplied with your Tumble Dryer, this grille should be fitted to the outside of the window vent in place of the storm flap.

For open window venting it must be possible for the end of the hose to be directed downwards to prevent warm, moist air condensing in the room or in the dryer. The end of the vent hose B must be at least 500mm from the ground. The vent hose supplied with your dryer has a

Bgrille fastened to the end using PVC and plastic studs, this grille must always be used when venting through an open window.
