Draining
The dryer is equipped with a condenser unit which accumulates water
during the drying cycle. This water is collected in the removable water
tank located at the top left of the dryer. The accumulated water must
be emptied after each drying cycle. However you can also set up your
dryer to drain automatically using the drain hose provided.
Connecting the drain hose:
1
Remove the black drain hose from the connection at the back of the
dryer (
A
) and place it on the other connection to the left (
B
). Uncoil
the white drain hose and connect it to the back of the dryer where the
black drain hose was previously connected (
C
).
2
Place the other end of the white drain hose into a tub or standpipe.
The connection between the dryer and the white drain hose (
C
) must
be secured to avoid a potential flood.
Important!
If you connect the white drain hose onto your dryer and you do not secure the other end in a
drain, your dryer will drain water onto your floor. Ensure the drain hose is securely fixed in place
to an appropriate drain and is leak-free at the connection to the machine.
■
■
Regularly check that your standpipe or tub is free from lint and other obstructions, which may
affect drainage and cause flooding.
■
■
The drain hose should be checked from time to time and replaced if any damage (eg wear, cuts,
bulges, kinks, leaks, etc) are found. Do not bend the drain hose sharply, as this may cause it to split.
■
■
The extended length of the provided drain hose is 1.3 m.
■
■
In multi-storey apartments or any upper floor, the machine should be installed on a floor
equipped with a drain.
■
■
Draining must comply with local by-laws.
