Positioning
It is recommended that, for your convenience, the machine is positioned close to your washing
machine. Whilst drying, the tumble dryer will expel a certain amount of warm, very moist air and this
should be removed from the room as quickly as possible to prevent condensation. In an extremely
well-ventilated room or close to an open window, this may occur naturally. However, in general, it is
better to carry the dryer's exhaust outside via the vent hose supplied with the appliance; ending
either temporarily at an open window, or permanently at a fixed ventilation grille, fitted to an exterior
wall or window.
The tumble dryer must be installed in a clean place, where dirt does not build up. Make sure there
are no obstructing items or material near the air-intake louvres provided at the back (e.g. paper, rags
etc). To keep vibration and noise to a minimum when the dryer is in use, it should be placed on a firm,
level surface.
If the floor is uneven, adjust the adjustable feet. Do not put
any wooden pieces or other objects under the feet or base.
When pressure is applied to the edge of the machine it
should not shake (please check in two directions).If shaking
is present re-adjust the adjustable feet.
IMPORTANT:
The hot air emitted by the tumble dryer can reach
temperatures of up to 60°C.The appliance must therefore
not be installed on floors which are not resistant to high temperatures.
Removing Transport Safety Packaging Foam
Caution!
Before using the machine, the packaging foam must be removed from the drum.
1. Open the loading door.
2. Pull off adhesive strips on top of drum from inside machine.
3. Remove the two packaging foams from inside machine.

Fitting The Vent Hose
To simplify the installation, there is a choice of vent outlets: one at the back, the other in the left hand
side. Connect the hose to whichever is the more convenient by pulling the ring nut (A)from the vent
outlet at the back, aligning arrows of hose and ring nut, fastening by screwing hose to the direction
of arrow and pushing it firmly back into place. The unused vents should now be sealed with the
special snap cover (B) provided.
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 hole (dia.3 mm) in the lowest point of the hose and to place a
small container below it. (See picture, point B). Once connected to the dryer,
run the vent hose to the desired outlet point, ensuring 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.
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 is fitted with the flexible
hose to carry hot air outside the kitchen. In order to prevent the appliance from 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-outs with which the machine is fitted may operate.
