Unpacking
Warning !
Slide out the polythene bag containing the
polystyrene block before using the appliance. Pull
off adhesive strips from inside machine on top of
drum.
Keep all packaging away from children
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 around the
appliance. It is important to ensure the air intake grills on
the back of the dryer are not obstructed with any
materials (e.g. paper, rags etc.). Obstructing the grills
could be dangerous or at least seriously impair the
efficiency of the tumble dryer.
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 be sited
in a well ventilated room but 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 no higher than +35°C, as
it may affect the performance of the appliance
.
Fitting the vent hose
Depending on the position of the tumble dryer to an
outside wall there is a choice of 3 vent outlets: One at
the back, the others on the left or 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 nothing to be concerned about.
To prevent this water from lying 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)
