Choosing where to install the dryer
You can install this dryer in a number of different ways.
We will show you the most suitable of these. Whichever
way you install it, here are some points to bear in mind:
•
Always ensure that the dryer is level.
•
The temperature in the room should not exceed
+35°C when the dryer is operating. If it does, open
a door or window while the dryer is on.
•
The area around the dryer should be as dust-free as
possible.
•
If you install the dryer with its door hinge side
towards a wall, or next to a cupboard or wall unit
which is more than 370 mm deep, you will need to
leave a space on the hinge side at least 30 mm wide.
This is to allow the door to open wide enough for
removing the water tank.
•
Ensure the air ducts are not obstructed.
Worktop installation
If you prefer to install your dryer on a worktop, you must
anchor it at the top rear to prevent it from tipping
forwards.
Method:
•
Begin by placing the dryer on the worktop in the
position where it is to be installed.
•
Level the dryer with the aid of its adjustable feet.
•
On the wall, mark the position of the hole needed
for the screw eye. The correct place is opposite the
centre of the left-hand bracket on the top rear of the
dryer. Drill a hole for a 5.5 mm diameter plastic
wall plug.
•
Screw the screw eye supplied (1) into place. Once
in place, the “eye” (aperture) of the screw eye needs to
be 40 mm from the wall.
•
Position the dryer so that the eye is correctly
aligned in the bracket.
•
Fit the pin (2) through bracket and eye, and lock it
in place with the split-pin (3).
The adjustable feet must not be removed.
They ensure that there is adequate ventilation
underneath the dryer.
Electrical supply
The dryer is supplied with a lead and electrical plug for
connection to an earthed wall socket, 240 V, 13 A. If the
dryer is to have fixed wiring to the electrical supply, this
should only be carried out by a qualified electrician or
competent person.
