Installation

Where to put your dryer

Place your dryer at a distance from gas ranges,

stoves, heaters, or cook tops because flames can

damage the appliance.

If you are going to install the

Minimum gap 10mm

appliance under a work

counter, be sure to leave a

10mm space between the

top and any other objects on

or above the machine and a

15mm space between the

Minimum gaps

15mm

sides and lateral furnishings

or walls. This is to ensure

proper air circulation. Make sure that the back

vents are not obstructed.

Make sure you put your dryer in an environment

that is not damp and has proper air circulation

throughout, the dryer will not operate efficiently in

an enclosed space or cupboard.

! We do not recommend that the dryer is installed in a

cupboard but the dryer must never be installed

behind a lockable door, a sliding door or a door with a

hinge on the opposite side to that of the dryer door.

Ventilation

The Dryer dries your laundry by drawing in cool, clean

and relatively dry air, heating it, and then distributing it

through the clothes as they are gently tumbled. For

optimum performance, the moist air is then blown out

through a vent tube at the back of the dryer.

When the dryer is in use, there has to be adequate

ventilation to avoid the back flow of gases into the room

from appliances burning other fuels, including open fires.

Mobile venting

A vent tube must always be fitted when the dryer is

used in conjunction with Mobile Venting.

The tube must be fitted securely into the back of the

dryer (see Dryer Description). If possible, it is always

best to connect the tube to a permanent

outlet close to the dryer. If permanent installation is

not possible, the dryer will work just as well with the

tube passing through a partly-opened window.

! Ensure that the end of the tube is not directed

toward the air intake vent at the rear of the dryer.

! The vent tube should not exceed 2.4 metres in

length and should be kept free of any possible

accumulation of fluff, lint and water by shaking it out

frequently. Always ensure that the tube is not

squashed.

Permanent venting

In conjunction with the vent tube we recommend

using a Wall/Window Vent Kit, available at a retail

location or the nearest Spare Parts Dealer.

Depending on how often you use your dryer, it is

essential that areas A and B are checked periodically

to remove lint or debris.

The vent tube adaptor must be fitted securely thus

preventing any humid air from being emitted back into

the room.

! The Dryer should not be pushed so far back that the

tube adaptor is pulled out of position or the tube is

squashed or bent.

! The tube should be kept clear of the air intake vent

and kinks or 'U' bends must be avoided as these will

obstruct the tube or trap condensation.

Wall mounting

1. Leave an opening in

the wall to the left of the

dryers proposed position.

2. Keep the tube as short

and straight as possible

to prevent condensed

moisture from backing up

into the dryer.

3. Similarly, the duct in

the wall should slope

downwards towards the

outside.

Window mounting

1. With a stacked dryer

the hole in the window

should ideally be made

below the vent.

2. The tube should be

kept as short as possible.
