Installation for the exhaust air
duct
Caution!
Damage to the appliance
Inappropriate connecting of the exhaust
air duct to the dryer may cause
damages to the appliance. In order to
avoid it follow advises included in this
chapter.
Notes
■
It is recommended to route the
exhaust air directly into the open air
through an exhaust air duct. A drain
check valve must be fitted then to
prevent air from flowing back.
■
The air extraction system must not
exceed the specified pressure
losses.
■
Clean the exhaust air duct regularly,
at least once a year.
When operating the dryer without an
exhaust air duct, the following must
also be observed:
■
Ensure that the room is well
ventilated, otherwise energy
consumption and drying time will
increase. Bad ventilation of the room
may lead to the increase of moisture
which may cause damages, e.g. to
walls or furniture.
■
Do not cover the exhaust air
opening. Leave approx. 1 m of free
space around the exhaust air
opening.
Connections on the dryer
Connections for an exhaust air duct are
located:
■
on the back panel
The exhaust air opening on the back
panel is open when the dryer is
delivered (bayonet ring). The
exhaust air opening on the left side
panel is sealed with a cover.
■
on the left side panel
You can switch the connection on the
back panel to the left side panel as
follows:
1.
Remove the cover on the side panel.
2.
Remove the bayonet ring from the
back panel and attach it to the
opening on the side panel.
