Installation - venting
The moist air from the dryer must be
vented via a ducting system, or
through direct venting to the outside.
When installing avoid:
– very long venting systems
– too many bends or corners
– tight corners
otherwise, the drying result will be less
effective, it will take longer and use
more energy.
Suitable materials for venting pipe-
work:
– galvanised steel piping
– plastic piping
– flexible aluminium piping
Install the venting pipework in such
a way that the moist expelled air
cannot be drawn into the machine
again.
Connection must not be made to a
flue used by gas or solid fuel boilers
or heaters.
An adapter for the venting pipework is
included as a standard accessory. It is
fitted into the vent outlet and enables
simple connection of a flexible pipe.
Before installation disconnect the
tumble dryer from the electrical sup-
ply (switch off at the wall socket, or
isolate at the mains fuse box).
The venting connection can
be made:
– to the rear or
– to the left or right side of the machine
Installation to the rear
The machine is supplied with the con-
nection at the rear open.
Installation to the left or right side of
the machine
Each side venting connection has a
framed cover cap.
Only the cover cap should be
removed, and not the frame.
Use the cover cap to close the rear
outlet.
Fit the venting pipework.
