INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT:
The hot air emitted by the tumble dryer can reach temperatures
of up to 60
o
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 be lower than +5
o
C or higher than +35
o
C as it may affect the
performance of the appliance.
Fitting the vent hose
To simplify the installation, there is a choice of vent outlets: one at the back, the
other on the left hand side.
Connect the hose to whichever is more convenient by pulling the ring nut (A) form
the vent outlet at the back, aligning the arrows of the hose and ring nut, then
fastening by screwing the hose to the direction of the arrow, and finally pushing it
firmly back into place. The unused vents should now be sealed with the special snap
cover (B) provided.
Advice:
If the hose is long and the room temperature is low,
the moisture might condense inside the hose. This is
an unavoidable natural phenomenon. To prevent this
water from lying in the hose or flowing back into the
tumble dryer, it is advisable to drill a small hole (dia.
3mm) in the lowest point of the hose and to place a
small container below it (C).
Once connected to the dryer, run the vent hose to the
desired outlet point - it should contain no more than
two bends. As to the outlet itself, if you have decided
on a fixed wall/window grille, a good local builders
merchant should be able to supply you with the
necessary fittings and installation advice.
