Open window venting

GB

The end of the tube should be directed downwards, to prevent warm moist air from condensing in the room or in the dryer.

!Ensure that the dryer is adequately ventilated and that the end of the vent tube is not directed towards the air intake duct.

!The vent tube must always be fitted for optimum performance.

!Make sure that the vent tube and air intake vents are not obstructed or blocked.

!The dryer must not recycle exhaust air.

!Misusing a tumble dryer may create a fire hazard.

!Do not discharge exhaust air into a flue which is used for exhaust fumes from other appliances that burn gas or other fuels.

!Do not discharge exhaust air into an extraction system or any duct with an extractor fan. This will affect the way the thermal controls operate and can result in a fire hazard.

Electrical connections

Make sure of the following before you insert the plug into the the electrical socket:

The socket must be grounded.

The socket must be able to sustain the machines maximum power, which is indicated on the rating label (see Dryer Description).

Power voltage must be within the values indicated on the rating label (see Dryer Description).

The socket must be compatible with the dryers plug. Should this not be the case, replace the plug or the socket.

!The dryer must not be installed outdoors, even if the space is sheltered. It can be very dangerous if it is exposed to rain or storms.

!Once installed, the dryers electrical wire and plug must be within easy reach.

!Do not use extension cords.

!The power cord must not be bent or squashed.

!The power supply cord should be checked periodically and replaced by a cord specially prepared for this dryer and fitted only by authorised technicians (see Service). New or longer power cords are supplied at an extra charge by authorised dealers..

!The manufacturer denies any responsibility should any of these rules not be followed.

!If in doubt about any of the above consult a qualified electrician.

Levelling your dryer

The dryer must be installed level for correct operation.

When you have installed your dryer in its final location check that it is level first side to side, then front to back.

If the dryer is not level, use a wooden block to support it while adjusting the two front legs up or down, until your dryer is level.

Before you start using your dryer

Once you have installed your dryer and before you use it, clean the inside of the drum to remove any dust that could have accumulated during transport.
