Advice:
B
The hot air emitted by the tumble dryer can reach temperatures of up to 60
°
C.The appliance
must there not be installed in floors which are not resistant to high temperatures.
Once connected to the dryer,run the vent hose to the desired
outlet point,it contains no more than two bends. As to the outlet
itself,if you have decided on a fixed wall/window grille,a good
local builder’s merchant should be able to supply you with the
necessary fittings and installation advice.
If the hose is long and the room temperature low,the moisture
might condense inside the hose.this is an unavoidable natural
phenomenon.To prevent this water from lying in the hose or
flowing back into the tumble dryer,it is advisable to drill a small
container below it.(See picture,point B)
Pull the ring nut (A) from the vent outlet , aligning arrows of hose and ring nut,fastening by
screwing hose to the direction of arrow and pushing it firmly back into place.
It is important not to connect the vent hose to,for example,a cooker hood,or a chimney
or flue pipe designed to carry the exhaust from a fuel burning appliance.
Note that to avoid condensation problems,it is essential that the dryer be fitted with the
flexible hose to carry its auste outside the kitchen.
In order to prevent the appliance form overheating,it is important that the steam exhaust
is unobstructed.
If the dryer is fitted next to kitchen units,make sure that the vent hose is not squashed.
If the hose is partially squashed,drying efficiency will be reduced,resulting in longer drying
times and higher energy consumption.If the hose is completely squashed,the safety cut-out
with which the machine is fitted may operate.
That adequate ventilation has to be provided to aviod the back flow of gases into the room
from appliances burning other fuels,including open fires.
For appliances with ventilation openings in the base,that a carpet must not obstruct the openings.
