4. Rear wall of drying cabinet
5. Fixing screw with washer
The drying cabinet must not be placed in an environment in which high-pressure water
is used for cleaning.
The drying cabinet is intended only for location indoors in a dry place and secured to a wall.
CAUTION The drying cabinet must not
be used without being secured to a wall
owing to the risk of tipping over forward.
Bear in mind that the cabinet is top-
heavy and there is a risk of it tipping over.
This adjustment should be carried out by
two people.
The cabinet must be attached to a wall to
prevent tipping over.
1Open the door and drill 8 mm holes in the
wall through the two pre-drilled holes in
the rear of the drying cabinet.
2Fit the plastic plugs in the wall. Thread the
spacer onto the screw and t with washer
as illustrated. Screws are contained in the
assembly kit.

EVACUATION / SUPPLY AIR
When the cabinet is on, approx. 95 m³ moist air per hour is evacuated. It must therefore
be ensured that air can enter the room to replace the moist air that is vented out.
CONNECTION TO EVACUATION
The drying cabinet is connected to exhaust air ventilation in accordance with standard.
The drying cabinet can be connected to the evacuation duct in two ways, either
with a draft stabiliser or permanently tted to a mechanical exhaust vent.
If the drying cabinet is to be connected to an existing vent system, a draught stabi-
liser must always be used, so that the general ventilation in the room is not aected.
Permanent tting must only be carried out when a separate exhaust-air duct is
routed to the drying cabinet, the air ow in the exhaust-air duct being adjusted to
95 m³ per hour.
The drying cabinet has been tested and factory-set for connection with a draught
stabiliser.
Air connection on the cabinet
Position and t the supplied
spigot (1) over the hole on
the top of the drying cabi-
net. Rotate clockwise until
the spigot clicks into place
in the slots in the roof.

The drying cabinet must be connected to a
230V single-phase 50-60 Hz and protectively
earthed wall socket.
Fuse 10A.
The drying cabinet is supplied ready for con-
nection with a cable and an earthed plug.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The manufacturer disclaims all liability
if the electrical connection has not been
carried out in the way described in this
user manual.
The drying cabinet must be connected to
a dedicated circuit.
Check that the connection current agrees
with the data on the identification plate
and that the power cord is earthed
correctly in accordance with applicable
standard. We recommend that the power
cord be fitted with a residual current
device (RCD).
The socket should be located so that the
plug can be easily pulled out if necessary.
The drying cabinet should be connected
to an earthed wall socket using the
connecting cable supplied and must not
be permanently wired.
Note: A replacement cord must only
be fitted by a qualified electrician.
If the mains lead for any reason is dam-
aged, it must be replaced. A genuine
spare part can be obtained from the
dealer who supplied the cabinet.

15
START-UP
CAUTION Read the safety instructions
on page 5 before using the cabinet.
1Make sure that the cabinet is rmly
attached to the wall. See page 11.
2Make sure that no packaging material
has been left behind.
3Use a mild detergent with hot water
and wash the inside and outside
of the drying cabinet. Dry carefully.
See also the ‘Care’ section later in the
manual.
Read these operating
instructions before using
the drying cabinet for the
first time.

16
ARRANGING LAUNDRY FOR DRYING
p Hang the items in the drying cabinet
according to how much space they require
- not according to their weight.
p For most ecient drying, do not lay item
at on the upper hanger section.
pPosition long items closest to the walls
of the cabinet and shorter items towards
the centre of the cabinet. The most ef-
ficient drying results are achieved by
hanging the items in this way.
pFold up the two bottom hanger sections
if long items are to be dried.
p
Hang gloves, caps, scarves and similar
items on the hanger strips on the inside
of the door.
p All the hanger sections are extendible to
make it easier to hang laundry. The hanger
sections must be in their inner position when
the door is closed.
pDo not overload the drying cabinet. If
you do, the laundry will become creased
and dry unevenly. Instead, leave a space
between the items if possible.
pIf there is a risk of particular items shed-
ding colour, free space should be left
around them.
pAvoid drying heavy items of clothing
together with lighter items as they have
very dierent drying times.
pDry knitted products at. These are heavy
when wet and stretch unnecessarily if
they are hung on a peg.
USER TIPS
pAlways following the laundry instructions
on the item of clothing if present.
pIf a fabric conditioner or anti-static agent
is used, follow the manufacturer's instruc-
tions for use of this product.
pAdapt the drying temperature in the
cabinet for products that contain foam
rubber or similar material. Follow the
manufacturer's instructions closely for the
washing and drying of such products.
Note: When the cabinet is cold it may
happen that the door's sealing strip does
not close completely. However, this is
fully compensated when the cabinet is
operating with heat as the sealing strip
expands.
AIR FLOW
The illustration shows the air ow in the
drying cabinet.
Keep the area
around the evacu-
ation duct clear of
dust and dirt.
Make sure that the
air intake and ex-
haust duct are not
blocked.
See page 6.
There are three sections with hangers in the cabinet, depending on choice of interior
ttings. Each section has a number of rails for hanging laundry.

17
OVERHEAT CUT-OUT
The cabinet is equipped with an overheat cut-out. This trips when the temperature
in the fan unit exceeds 120 °C.
Easy Dryer
When the overheat cut-out has tripped, the cabinet is closed and the timer stops for
example at 2 hours with the laundry wet. The user can now reset the overheat cut-
out by turning o the power supply with the switch inside the roof of the cabinet.
See illustration.
Alternatively, resetting can be done by turning the timer to zero.
The user has to wait for 10 to 15 minutes so that the overheat cut-out has time to
reclose. The power supply to the cabinet is then turned back on using the same
switch or by turning the timer back on.

OPERATION EASY DRYER 1700
CONTROL PANEL
HEAT DRYING TIME
The cabinet is equipped with two knobs
for setting dierent power modes.
The left-hand knob regulates heat with
power modes on a stepless scale.
The right-hand knob regulates drying
time steplessly up to four hours.
CHOICE OF SETTINGS
High heat
Low heat
If you want a fast drying result, and the item of
clothing copes with HIGH heat, turn the heat
knob to max and set the drying time at 1.5 to
2 hours.
To dry at LOW heat, turn the heat knob to just
after the start of the semi-circle and the drying
time to between three and four hours.

20
CARE
Note: Do not use high-pressure cleaning.
CLEANING
pClean the walls of the cabinet with a
mild soap solution on a damp cloth.
pDust tends to collect around the
air intake on the top of the cabinet.
This can cause disturbance, in turn
leading to breakdowns in operation.
Follow Award instructions in repair and
replacement of parts.
