Introduction
Unpacking.
Remove all packaging material, accessories and
documentation from the dryer.
Dispose of the packaging in a responsible man-
ner. Plastic bags should be cut up to prevent chil-
dren playing with them and accidentally suffocat-
ing.
Damage.
Do not use the dryer if it has been damaged in
transit. Report the damage to your dealer, who
will take the necessary corrective action.
Location.
The dryer should be located in a well ventilated
room, away from heat sources such as gas, oil or
coal fired appliances.
Position the dryer on a flat, even, uncarpeted
floor.
The dryer vents to the outside and utilises a dedi-
cated air outlet hose for this purpose. For this rea-
son it is best to position the dryer near an outside
facing wall or window.
Ensure that an electrical supply point is within
easy reach of the power cord.
Levelling.
Level the dryer by turning the adjustable feet ei-
ther in or out.
Two rubber friction pads are supplied and may be
fitted under the adjustable feet to prevent any
movement on slippery surfaces.

The other end of the exhaust tube may be directed
through an open window or connected to a wall
mounted vent.
The sketch above shows the preferred direction
the tube should follow.
The exhaust air may not be directed into chim-
neys, flues or fireplaces.
If required, a permanent exhaust pipe may be in-
stalled and should be routed with as few bends as
possible so as not to restrict the airflow.
The maximum length of such a pipe is given be-
low.
Electrical connection.
The dryer must be plugged into a dedicated
230V. 15A. earthed wall socket.
Do not use a double adaptor.
The manufacturer and seller do not accept respon-
sibility for any damage due to incorrect electrical
connection.
If the power cord needs replacing, use only a
genuine type ‘X’ cord available from the nearest
Defy Service Centre.
Insert the adaptor piece into the exhaust outlet at
the rear of the dryer, and screw one end of the
flexible exhaust tube into the adaptor.
