INSTALLATION
Positioning
The machine must be installed in a well-
ventilated room.
To obtain the best performance, it is important
that the dryer is perfectly horizontal. Check this
by using a spirit level and make any necessary
adjustments to appliance’s adjustable feet.
To ensure the correct functioning of the machine,
the incoming air must be free from dust and the
discharge air must flow through the front
ventilation grid.
Do not remove the appliance’s adjustable feet.
It is essential to provide a certain amount of
space between the floor and the appliance for
ventilation purposes. Do not place it on deep
pile carpet or rugs.
Blocking ventilation would inevitably lead to a
build up of heat which would affect the
appliance’s efficiency.
Important
The hot air emitted by the tumble dryer can reach
temperatures of up to 60°C. The appliance must
therefore not be installed on floors which are not
resistant to high temperatures.
When operating the tumble dryer, the room
temperature must not exceed 35°C, as it may
affect the performance of the appliance.
Make sure that air circulates freely at the back of
the appliance and that intake grilles are not
obstructed.
Electrical connection
This machine is designed to operate on a 220-
230 V, single-phase, 50 Hz supply.
Check that your domestic electrical installation can
take the maximum load required (2.6 kW), also
taking into account any other appliances in use.
Connect the machine to an earthed socket, in
accordance with current wiring regulations.
The manufacturer declines any
responsibility for damage or injury
through failure to comply with the
above safety precaution.
Stacking kit
This tumble dryer may be stacked on a front-loading
washing machine. However, the tumble dryer will
have to be fixed to the washing machine. For this to
be carried out, the special stacking kit (available from
all authorised dealers) will be required. The
assembling instructions are included in the kit.
Connecting a drain hose
If there is a sink or drain near the appliance, the
condensed water can be discharged directly
through a hose that is available on the market.
In order to connect the hose to the appliance
proceed as follows:
■
Remove the clamp (A)
■
Pull out the plug (B)
■
Insert the drain hose (C)
■
Fasten the hose (C) to the appliance using the
clamp (A).
If the appliance is stacked on the washing
machine, the condensed water can be
discharged through the hose as shown in figure,
but take into account that the hose must be
pointed downwards.
