proper air circulation. Make sure that the back vents

are not obstructed.

Ventilation

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

ventilation. Make sure you put your dryer in an

environment that is not damp and has proper air

circulation throughout. Airflow around the dryer is

essential to condense the water produced during the

washing, 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.

! If using the dryer in a small or cold room some

condensation could be experienced.

Door Reversal Instructions

Door latch

The door of your dryer is reversible and can easily be

changed. Exchange diagonally hinge brackets and

blanking screws. Exchange door latch and catch with

their opposite blanking plates (see diagram above).

If you are going to install

the 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

sides and lateral furnishings

or walls. This is to ensure

Water drain

If your dryer is installed next to a drain the water can be

plumbed into this drain. This does away with the need to

empty the water container. If the dryer is stacked onto or

installed next to a washing machine it can share the same

drain. The height of the drain must be less than 3' (1m)

from the bottom of the dryer.

Remove the existing clip and hose

from position shown (see diagram).

Alternatively, and when different pump fitted, simply

remove the top hose from its top fixing at the rear of the

dryer and plumb the hose into the drain.

! Make sure that the hose is not squashed or kinked when

the dryer is in its final location.

Electrical connections

into the the electrical socket:

The socket must be grounded.

The socket must be able to sustain the machines

maximum power, which is indicated on the rating

Power voltage must be within the values indicated

on the rating label (see Dryer Description).

The socket must be compatible with the dryers plug.

Should this not be the case, replace the plug or the

socket.

! The dryer must not be installed outdoors, even if the

space is sheltered. It can be very dangerous if it is

exposed to rain or storms.

! Once installed, the dryers electrical wire and plug

must be within easy reach.

! Do not use extension cords.

! The power cord must not be bent or squashed.

! The power cord supplied should be checked

periodically and replaced by a cord specially prepared

for this dryer and fitted only by authorised technicians

(see Service). New or longer power cords are supplied

of these rules not be followed.

! If in doubt about any of the above consult a qualified
