Before plugging the appliance into the socket, check the following:

• Make sure your hands are dry.

• The socket must have an earth connection.

• The socket must be able to withstand the machine’s

maximum power output as indicated on the data plate (see

Description of the tumble dryer).

• The power supply voltage must fall within the values indicated

on the data plate (see Description of the tumble dryer).

• The socket must be compatible with the dryer’s plug.

Should this not be the case, replace the plug or the socket.

￿ Do not use extension cords.

￿ The dryer must not be installed outdoors, even if the space is

sheltered. It can be very dangerous if exposed to rain or storms.

￿ Once installed, the dryer’s electrical wire and plug must

Ventilation

The room must be adequately ventilated while the dryer is running. Make sure that the dryer is installed in a room free of humidity and with adequate air circulation. The flow of air around the dryer is essential to allow water to condense during drying; the dryer will not function properly if it is placed in an enclosed space or inside a cabinet.

￿Some condensation may form if the dryer is used in a small or cold room.

￿We do not recommend installing the dryer in a cupboard; moreover, never install the machine behind a lockable, sliding or hinged door located on the opposite side of the dryer door.

Water drain

If your dryer is installed next to a drain the water can be plumbed into this drain. This does away with the need to empty the water container. If the dryer is stacked onto or installed next to a washing machine it can share the same drain. The height of the drain must be less than 3' (1 m) from the bottom of the dryer.

Remove existing hose from position shown in picture A and fit a suitable length of hose and connect as shown in picture B.

￿Make sure that the hose is not squashed or kinked when the dryer is in its final location.

be within reach.

￿ The power cord must not be bent or squashed.

￿ The power cord is supplied fitted with a BS1363 plug

and with a 13 amp BS1362 fuse. If it is necessary to fit a

replacement fuse, it must be a 13 Amp ASTA approved

to BS1362 type. WARNING: The plug must not be used

without a fuse cover. If a replacement fuse holder/cover is

required, it must be of the same colour coding or wording as

shown on the base of the plug.

Replacements are available from authorised dealers.
