Venting
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.
Carry the dryer’s exhaust outside via a 100 mm diameter
venting system ending at a fi xed ventilation grille fi tted to an
exterior wall. The dryer must be exhausted outdoors. Do
not exhaust dryer into a chimney, a wall, a ceiling, an attic, a
crawl space or any concealed space of a building. A clothes
dryer produces combustible lint. If the dryer is not exhausted
outdoors, some fi ne lint will be expelled into the laundry area.
An accumulation of lint in any area of the home can create a
health and fi re hazard.
Exhaust air must not be discharged into a fl ue which is used
for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other
fuels, for example, a
cooker hood, or a chim-
ney or fl ue pipe designed
to carry the exhaust from
a fuel burning appliance.
Use only 100 mm diameter rigid or fl exible metal duct and
approved vent hood which has a swing-out damper(s) that
open when the dryer is in operation. When the dryer stops,
the dampers automatically close to prevent drafts and the
entrance of insects and rodents. To avoid restricting the
outlet, maintain a minimum of 30 cm clearance between the
vent hood and the ground or any other obstruction.
WARNING!
WARNING!
The appliance must not be installed behind the lockable door,
a sliding door or a door with a hinge on the opposite side to
that of the appliance, in such a way that a full opening of the
tumble dryer door is restricted.

Exceeding the length of duct pipe or number of elbows
allowed in the “MAXIMUM LENGTH” chart can cause an ac-
cumulation of lint in the exhaust system. Plugging the system
could create a fi re hazard, as well as increase drying times.
Install male fi ttings in correct direction:
correct incorrect
If installing fl exible metal (semi-rigid) venting, do not exceed 2 m
total duct length.
Do not screen the exhaust ends of the vent system, or use
any screws, rivets or other fasteners that extend into the duct
to assemble the exhaust system. Lint can become caught in
the screen, on the screws or rivets, clogging the duct work
and creating a fi re hazard as well as increasing drying times.
Use an approved vent hood to terminate the duct outdoors,
and seal all joints with metal foil duct tape.
All male duct pipe fi ttings MUST be installed downstream
with the fl ow of air.
