Installation
Where to put your dryer
• Place your dryer at a distance
from gas ranges, stoves,
heaters, or cooktops because
flames can damage the
appliance.
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.
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 because dangerous levels of heat can build up. !
The appliance must not be installed behind a lockable door,
a sliding door or a door with a hinge on the opposite side to
that of the tumble dryer in such a way that a full opening of
the tumble dryer door is restricted.
Water Drain
If your dryer is installed next to a drain the water can be
plumbed into this drain. This does away with the need to empty
the water container. If the dryer is stacked onto or installed next
to a washing machine it can share the same drain.
The dryer is supplied with a length of hose and this must be
used to drain the condensed water under certain conditions.
If you are using a washing machine with a spin speed below
1100 rpm and drying loads of 7 kg or more also for energy
label tests to AUS/NZS 2442 you must plumb out the water
or the container may fill before the clothes are dried. Follow
the instruction below. The height of the drain must be less
than 3’ (1 m) from the bottom of the dryer.
Remove existing hose from position shown in picture A
And fit the supplied length of hose to location shown in
picture B.
! Make sure that the hose is not squashed or kinked
when the dryer is in its final location.
!The length of the hose can be reduced if necessary
to avoid this

Electrical connection
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 maxi-
mum power output as indicated on the data plate (see Descrip-
tion of the tumble dryer).
• The power supply voltage must fall within the values indica-
ted on the data plate (see Description of the tumble dryer).
• The socket must be compatible with the machine’s plug. If
not, either the socket or the plug must be replaced.
!
Do not use extension cords.
!
The tumble dryer must not be installed in outdoor spaces,
even if sheltered. It may be very dangerous to expose this
appliance to rain and thunderstorms.
!
Once dryer installation is complete, the electric cord and plug
must be at hand.
!
The electric cord must not be bent or crushed.
!
If the plug to be replaced is of the moulded-on type, it must
be disposed of in a safe way. DO NOT leave it where it can be
plugged into a socket and cause electric shocks.{}
!
The electric cord must be regularly checked and replaced
with a cord specifically designed for this dryer; it must then
be installed by an authorised technician only (see Assistance).
New or longer electric cords are supplied by authorised dealers
at a supplementary cost.
! Ensure that any portable outlet or extension lead is positio-
ned so that it is not subjected to any splashing or ingress of
moistures
!
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for failure to
observe these instructions.
a qualified electrician.
! If in doubt about any of the above consult a qualified
electrician.
Before you start using your dryer
Once you’ve installed your dryer and before you use it, clean
the inside of the drum to remove any dust that could have
accumulated during transportation.
