Installation
Open window venting
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 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.
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.

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.
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.
