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.

Should the
appliance be

moved, it must be
transported
vertically. 

Positioning

It is recommended
that, for your
convenience, the
machine is
positioned close to
your washing
machine. The tumble
dryer must be
installed in a clean
place, where dirt
does not build up.

Air must be able to
circulate freely all
round the appliance.
Do not obstruct the

front ventilation grille
or the air intake
grilles at the back of
the machine.

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.

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!

The hot air emitted
by the tumble dryer
can reach
temperatures of up
to 60°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°C and
higher than +35°C,
as it may affect the
performance of the
appliance.

Electrical

connection

This machine is
designed to operate
on a 230 V, 16A,
single-phase, 50 Hz
supply.

Check that your
domestic electrical
installation can take
the maximum load
required (2.35 kW),
also taking into
account any other
appliances in use.
Connect the machine
to an earthed socket,
in accordance with
current wiring
regulations.

The
manufacturer

declines any
responsibility for
damage or injury
through failure to
comply with the
above safety
precaution.
Should the
appliance power
supply cable need
to be replaced, this
must be carried out
by our Service
Centre.

Important!

The power supply
cable must be
accessible after
installing the
machine.

Stacking kit

A special stacking kit
is available through
your dealer, to
enable the mounting
of the dryer on top of
a front loading
washing machine
with cover’s depth
between 48 and 60
cm.

Read carefully the
instructions supplied
with the kit.

Door reversal

To make it easier to
load or unload the
laundry the door can
be reversed.

This operation
must be carried out
by qualified
personnel.

Please contact the
nearest Service
