Installation

Unpacking

•  This product has been packaged to protect it against transportation damage. 

Remove all packaging materials from around the appliance and from the inside. 

•  Keep the original packaging carton and materials in a safe place. It will help prevent 

any damage if the product needs to be transported in the future, and you can use 
it to store the appliance when it is not in use. In the event that the carton is to be 
disposed of, please recycle all packaging materials where possible. 

•  Plastic wrapping can be a suffocation hazard for babies and young children, so 

ensure all packaging materials are out of their reach and disposed of safely.

•  Inspect the cord and plug for damage or wear before each use. Do not use the 

appliance if the appliance or its cord have been damaged or are not working 
properly. In case of damage, contact our after sales support centre.

•  Read all instructions in this manual and make sure you understand all warnings.
•  Wipe the inside of the drum with a damp cloth to remove any dust from transport.

Important notes regarding installation

•  This clothes dryer can be installed freestanding, on floor level, or wall-mounted, or 

wall-mounted upside down. If you are wall-mounting it, please follow the instructions 
on the next pages. Wall-mounting it upside down will bring the control panel in easier 
reach

use the extra control panel label (supplied), so the printing is the right way up. 

•  Do NOT install the appliance:

 

:

Behind a lockable door, sliding door or a door with a hinge on the opposite 
side of the dryer, in such a way that a full opening of the tumble dryer door is 
restricted.

 

:

In a tight fitting cabinet.

 

:

In an area where it will be exposed to temperatures below freezing, or exposed 
to water or weather, which could cause permanent damage and invalidate the 
warranty.

 

:

In an area where gas or flammable substances are used.

•  The plug must be accessible after installation.
•  Ensure that all electrical connections are made by qualified personnel and all 

instructions in this manual as well as local safety regulations are observed. 

•  Place the dryer in a dry, well ventilated area, away from heat and direct sunlight.
•  Exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used for exhausting fumes 

from appliances burning gas or other fuels.

• 

 

CAUTION: HEAVY! 

Ensure you have at least one helper to move and install the 

dryer.
