Moulded plug
!
The plug must not be used without
the fuse cover in place.
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.
Changing the plug
The wires in the power cord are coloured in accordance with the
following:
!
If the plug being replaced is a non-rewirable type, then the
cut-off plug must be disposed of safely. DO NOT leave it
where it can be inserted into a socket and create a shock
hazard.
!
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.
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.
!
Keep this instruction booklet on hand in order to refer to it
when necessary. Take it with you when you move, and
should you sell this appliance or pass it on to another
party, make sure that this booklet is supplied along with
the dryer so that the new owner may be informed about
warnings and suggestions on how the dryer works.
!
Read these instructions carefully; the following pages
contain important information on installation and
suggestions on how the appliance works.
Door Reversal Instructions
The door of your dryer is reversible and can easily be
changed. Exchange diagonally hinge brackets and
blanking screws. Exchange door latch and catch with their
opposite blanking plates (
see diagram above
).
Where to put your dryer
●
Place your dryer at a distance from gas ranges,
stoves, heaters, or cook tops because flames can
damage the appliance.
●
If you are going to install the appliance under a work
counter, be sure to leave a 10mm space between the
top and any other objects on or above the machine
and a 15mm space between the sides and lateral
furnishings or walls. This is to ensure proper air circulation.
Make sure that the back vents are not obstructed.
Ventilation
When the dryer is in use, there has to be adequate
ventilation. Make sure you put your dryer in an environment
that is not damp and has proper air circulation throughout.
Airflow around the dryer is essential to condense the
water produced during the washing, the dryer will not
operate efficiently in an enclosed space or cupboard.
!
If using the dryer in a small or cold room some
condensation could be experienced.
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. Simply remove the top hose from
its top fitting at the rear of the dryer and plumb the hose
provided to the drain.
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 cord supplied is fitted with a BS1363 plug and a 13
amp BS1362 fuse. If you need to replace the fuse, use only
those rated at 13 amp (13A) and ASTA approved to
BS1362.
