Installation
Where to install the tumble dryer
 Install the dryer far from gas
ranges, stoves, radiators or
hobs, as flames may damage it.
If the dryer is installed below a
worktop, ensure there are 10
mm between the upper panel of
the dryer and any objects above
it, and 15 mm between the sides
of the machine and the walls or
furniture units adjacent to it. This
ensures adequate air circulation. Make sure the air inlets on
the rear panel are not blocked or obstructed.
You should also make sure that the room in which the
tumble dryer is installed is not damp, and that it is
adequately ventilated.
Ventilation
This appliance gently dries laundry by taking in cold, clean and
relatively dry air, heating it and passing it through the fabric.
To facilitate the drying process, damp air is expelled at the
rear, through a ventilation hose. It is important that the room
in which the tumble dryer is used is adequately ventilated, in
order to avoid the recirculation of waste gases expelled by
other appliances.
Mobile ventilation system
When using the tumble dryer with the mobile ventilation
system, a ventilation hose must be connected. The hose
should be securely fastened to the ventilation hole at the rear of
the appliance (see Description of the tumble dryer). We
recommend the hose is connected to an outlet near the tumble
dryer, if possible. If it cannot be installed in a permanent spot,
the tumble dryer will still function perfectly well if the ventilation
hose is passed through a partially-opened window.
Make sure you do not point the ventilation hose towards the
air inlet, which is located on the rear of the appliance.
The ventilation hose should not exceed a maximum length of
2.4 metres; it should also be shaken frequently to remove any
fluff, dust or water deposits inside it. Make sure you do not
crush the hose.
Fixed ventilation system
We recommend the ventilation hose is connected to a
ventilation system for windows or doors, available from the
retailer which originally sold you the appliance or from your
local spare parts stockist.
Wall ventilation hole
1. Leave an opening in the wall to
the left of the tumble dryer
installation site.
2. Make the hose as short and
straight as possible, in order to
prevent any dampness from
condensing and leaking back into
the appliance.
3. The hole in the wall must also
be straight and pointing
downwards, so that the flow of air coming out is not
impeded.
Areas A and B should be checked frequently, to prevent the
accumulation of fluff or debris, particularly if the tumble dryer
is used very often. The hose adaptor must be fitted
correctly, in order to prevent damp air from coming back
into the room.
Window ventilation hole
1. Theoretically, when the
tumble dryer is operating with a
full load, the ventilation hole
should be directly behind the
fan.
2. It is therefore important that
the hose is as short as
possible.
Make sure you do not push
the tumble dryer too far
backwards, as this could lead to the ventilation hose being
crushed, bent or even disconnected.
There should be no cuts, bottlenecks or U-shaped bends
in the hose, as these could impede ventilation or trap
condensation.
Ventilation through an open window
The end of the hose must be
facing downwards, in order to
prevent the hot, damp air from
forming condensation in the
room or the tumble dryer.
Make sure that the tumble dryer is adequately ventilated,
and that the end of the ventilation hose is not pointing
towards the air inlet pipe on the rear of the appliance.
The ventilation hose must always be fitted to ensure
correct tumble dryer operation.
Make sure that the ventilation hose and the air inlet pipes
are not obstructed or blocked.
Do not let the tumble dryer recirculate foul air.
Improper use of the tumble dryer may result in fire
hazards.
The air emitted by the tumble dryer should not be expelled
in the same duct as used for the fumes produced by
different appliances which burn gas or other fuels.
