Installation
Warning!
Unpacking
Slide out the polythene bag with the
polystyrene stuffing before using the appliance
Pull off adhesive strips from inside machine on
top of drum.
Positioning
It is recommended that, for your convenience, the
machine is positioned close to your washing machine.
Whilst drying, the tumble dryer will expel a certain amount
of warm, very moist air, and this should be removed from
the room as quickly as possible to prevent condensation.
In an extremely well ventilated room or close to an open
window, this may occur naturally.
However, in general, it is better to carry the dryer's
exhaust outside via the 100 mm diameter flexible hose
supplied with the appliance; ending either temporarily at
an open window, or permanently at a fixed ventilation
grille, fitted to an exterior wall or window.
The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place,
where dirt does not build up.
Make sure there are no obstructing items or material
near the air-intake louvres provided at
the back (e.g. paper, rags etc.).
To keep vibration and noise to a minimum when the
dryer is in use, it should be placed on a firm, level
surface.
Once in its permanent operating position, check that
the dryer is absolutely level with the aid of a spirit
level. If it is not, raise or lower the feet until it is.

P1106
The feet must never be removed.
Do not restrict the floor clearance through deep-
pile carpets, strips of wood or similar. This might
cause heat build-up which would interfere with
the operation of the appliance.
Important
When operating the tumble dryer, the room
temperature must not exceed 35°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 others in the left and
right-hand side.
Connect the hose to whichever is the more
convenient by pulling the ring nut (A) from the vent
outlet at the back, screwing it on to the hose and
pushing it firmly back into place.
The unused vents should now be sealed with the
special snap covers provided.
Advice
: If the hose is long and the room
temperature low, the moisture might condense to
water inside the hose.
This is an unavoidable
natural phenomenon.
To prevent this water from
Iying in the hose or flowing back into the tumble
dryer, it is advisable to drill a small hole (dia.
3 mm) in the lowest point of the hose and to place a
small container below it.(See picture, point B).
