~
The tumble dryer must only be used
when it is connected to a suitable
ducting system. The installation site
must be adequately ventilated.
~
The ducting must not be connected
to
– a chimney or vent flue which is in
use,
– or to ducting which ventilates rooms
with fireplaces,
– or to chimneys being used by other
appliances.
Smoke or exhaust fumes can cause
poisoning.
~
Check all parts of the extraction
system on a regular basis (e.g. wall
vent, external grille, bends in the
ducting etc.) and make sure they are all
free of any hindrance. A build-up of fluff
will prevent a free flow of air through the
system. If the dryer is to be connected
to an existing ducting system, this must
be checked for suitability beforehand.
~
Adequate ventilation is essential
to
avoid the danger of asphyxia and
toxic fumes
where another appliance
which also uses the room air (e.g. gas,
oil or coal fired heater, continuous flow
or other water heater) is installed in the
same or an adjacent room.
To ensure safe operation, and to
prevent gases given off by these
appliances being drawn back into the
room, an underpressure of 4 Pa is the
maximum permissible.
Ventilation can be maintained by:
– air inlets in the external wall which
cannot be closed or blocked, or
– by fitting a window contact switch
which ensures that the tumble dryer
can only be operated when the
window is opened wide enough.
If in doubt, the advice of a competent
builder must be sought.
~
If more than one tumble dryer is
being installed using a joint ducting
system, each dryer must have its own
non-return flap to the joint ducting
system.
Otherwise the dryers could be
damaged, endangering their electrical
safety.
~
The fluff filter must be cleaned
regularly.
~
The dryer must not be used without
the fluff filter in place or if the fluff filter
is damaged in any way. Damaged
filters can cause operational faults and
blockages in the airways, heating
elements and ducting. Fire hazard!
In the event of a damaged filter, switch
the dryer off and replace the filter with a
new one.
~
Do not install the tumble dryer in a
room where there is a risk of frost
occurring. At temperatures around
freezing point the tumble dryer may not
be able to operate properly.
The ambient room temperature should
be b2°C and +50°C
