Downtime after installation
Damage to the tumble dryer by
switching it on too soon.
This can damage the heat pump.
After setting up the tumble dryer wait
for at least one hour before switching
it on.
Ventilation
The cool air intake at the front of the
tumble dryer must not be blocked or
covered. This would hinder a suffi-
cient intake of cool air for the heat
exchanger.
Do not block the gap between the
bottom of the tumble dryer and the
floor with plinth facings, deep pile
carpet etc. This would hinder a suffi-
cient flow of air to the tumble dryer.
The hot air that is blown out from the
heat exchanger warms the room air. En-
sure sufficient ventilation of the room:
e.g., open the window. The drying time
will otherwise take longer (higher energy
requirement).
Before moving the tumble dryer
again (e.g. when moving house)
After each use a small quantity of con-
densed water will collect in the area of
the pump. This water can run out if the
tumble dryer is tipped up when it is be-
ing moved. Recommendation: run the
Warm air
programme for approximately
1 minute before moving the tumble
dryer. Any remaining condensed water
will then be fed into the condensed wa-
ter container or out through the drain
hose.
Additional installation require-
ments
Risk of injury from an electrical
shock when the appliance lid is re-
moved.
There is a risk of electric shock be-
cause electrically charged compon-
ents in the dryer are accessible with
the lid removed.
For safety reasons, the tumble dryer
must be disconnected from the elec-
tricity supply.
Building under a continuous worktop
or in a cabinet
Appliance defect due to a build-up of
heat.
Make sure there is adequate room
for warm air from the dryer to be dir-
ected away.
– The electrical socket must be located
in an accessible position near the
tumble dryer.
– Drying durations may increase
slightly.
Avoid a build-up of heat:
– Adjust the screw feet so that there is
a gap of at least 20 mm between the
floor and the bottom of the dryer.
– Create a gap for the dryer in the kit-
chen furniture plinth facing.
– Create ventilation gaps in the kitchen
cabinet.
Slot-in
This tumble dryer is suitable for pushing
under a worktop if there is space to do
this without removing the lid.
