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.The appliance must be installed
with the rear surface placed against a wall.
Ventilation
• The room must be adequately ventilated while the dryer
is running. Make sure that the dryer is installed in a room
that is not damp and has with adequate air circulation. The
flow of air around the dryer is essential to allow water to
condense during drying; the dryer will not function properly if
it is placed in an enclosed space or inside a cabinet.
!
Some condensation may form if the dryer is used in a small
or cold room.
!
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.
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’ (1 m) from
the bottom of the dryer.
Remove existing hose from position shown in picture

and fit
a suitable length of hose and connect as shown in picture
B
.
!
Make sure that the hose is not squashed or kinked
when the dryer is in its final location.
Electrical connections
Before plugging the appliance into the socket,
check the following:
• Make sure your hands are dry.
• The socket must have an earth connection.
• The socket must be able to withstand
the machine’s maximum power output as
indicated on the rating plate
.
• The power supply voltage must fall within
the values indicated on the data plate
.
• The socket must be compatible with the
dryer’s plug. Should this not be the case,
replace the plug or the socket.
!
DO NOT use extension cords.
!
The dryer must not be installed outdoors,
even if the space is sheltered. It can be very
dangerous if exposed to rain or storms.
!
Once installed, the dryer’s electrical wire
and plug must be within reach.
!
The power cord must not be bent or
squashed.
!
The power must be regularly checked. If the
supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by the manufacturer, its service agent or
simi-larly qualified persons in order to avoid a
hazard. (see Assistance). New or longer electric
cords are supplied by authorised dealers at a
supplementary cost.
! The manufacturer denies any
responsibility should any of these rules
not be followed.
! If in doubt about any of the above
consult a qualified electrician
Preliminary information
