Where to put your dryer
• Place your dryer at a
distance from gas ranges,
stoves, heaters, or cooktops
because flames can damage
the appliance. The dryer
should be installed in an
ambient room temperature
of between 20 to 23°C
for optimum performance.
But will function if the room is between 14 and
30°C. If you are going to install the appliance
under a work counter, be sure to leave a 10 mm
space between the top and any other objects
on or above the machine and a 15 mm space
between the sides and lateral furnishings or
walls. This is to ensure proper air circulation.
The appliance must be installed with the rear
surface placed against a wall.
Ventilation
• When the dryer is in use, there has to be
adequate ventilation. Make sure you put your dryer
in an environment that is not damp and has proper
air circulation throughout. Airflow around the dryer
is essential to condense the water produced during
the washing, the dryer will not operate efficiently in
an enclosed space or cupboard.
! If using the dryer in a small or cold room
some condensation will be experienced.
!
We do not recommend that the dryer is
installed in a cupboard but the dryer must never
be installed behind a lockable door, a sliding
door or a door with a hinge on the opposite
side to that of the dryer door.

Water Drain
If the machine is positioned close to a drain it is possible to drain the
condensed water directly without using the waterbottle. In which
case it is no longer necessary to empty the water bottle at the end
of each cycle. If the Dryer is positioned above or close to a Washing
Machine the same drainage can be used. Just remove the tube
indicated in figure
A
and connect it to the drainage. If the drainage
is further away than the length of the tube it is possible to buy and
connect a tube of the same diameter and the necessary length in
order to reach the drain. To install the new tube just substitute the
existing one as indicated in figure
B
inserting it in the same place.
!
The drain tube has to be below 1 m from the bottom of
the Dryer.
! Once the Dryer has been installed please assure that
the drain tube is not bent or kinked.
Electrical connections
Before plugging the appliance into the socket,
check the following:
• Make sure your hands are dry.
• The socket must have an earth connection.
• The socket must be able to withstand
the machine’s maximum power output as
indicated on the rating plate.
• The power supply voltage must fall within
the values indicated on the data plate.
• The socket must be compatible with the
dryer’s plug. Should this not be the case,
replace the plug or the socket.
! DO NOT USE EXTENSION CORDS.
! The dryer must not be installed outdoors,
even if the space is sheltered. It can be very
dangerous if exposed to rain or storms.
! Once installed, the dryer’s electrical wire and
plug must be within reach.
! The power cord must not be bent or
squashed.
! If the plug being replaced is a non-rewirable
type, then the cut-off plug must be disposed of
safely. DO NOT leave it where it can be inserted
into a socket and create a shock hazard.
! The power must be regularly checked. If the
supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by the manufacturer, its service agent or
similarly qualified persons in order to avoid
a hazard. (see Assistance). New or longer
electric cords are supplied by authorised
dealers at a supplementary cost.
! The manufacturer denies any
responsibility should any of these rules
not be followed
.
!
If in doubt about any of the above
consult a qualified electrician
.
Levelling the tumble dryer
The dryer must be installed level for correct
operation.
When you have installed your dryer in its final
location check that it is level first side-to-side,
then front to back. If the dryer is not level,
