DRAIN HOSE : FITTING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Switch off and remove the
tumble dryer plug from the electricity supply
before carrying out any work.
Fit the Hose as Follows:
1.Flip the machine
slowly to the right side.
2. The waste water
pipe is situated at the
right-hand side of the
machine (see the
picture). A grey hose
connects to the bridge
at the left hand side of
the machine. Using
pliers, remove the pipe
retaining clip from the
bridge.
3. Pull the hose off the
bridge connection.
4. Attach the black
hose from the kit,
(using the connector
a n d p i p e c l i p s
supplied), to the hose
removed from the
bridge connection.
5. Once the machine is
in place, check the
bottom to ensure that
the new hose does not
kink when pushing the
tumble dryer into
position.
6. Connect the new
drain hose to the waste
Water pipe.
7. Connect to the
m a i n s e l e c t r i c i t y
supply.
Caution: If the product
is in different side, wait
at least 4 hours before
switching on so that the
oil can flow back into
t h e c o m p r e s s o r.
Failure to do this could
result in damage to the
compressor.
To avoid emptying the water container after
each drying cycle, the water can be
discharged directly to a waste water drain pipe
(the same drainage system as household
sinks). Water Bye-Laws prohibit connection to
a surface water drain. The waste water drain
pipe should be located adjacent to the tumble
dryer.
The kit consists of:1 hose and 1 tap.
DRAIN HOSE KIT: FITTING INSTRUCTIONS
Do not install the product in a low temperature room or
in a room where there is a risk of frost occurring. At
temperature around freezing point the product may not be
able to operate properly: there is a risk of damage if the
water is allowed to freeze in the hydraulic circuit (valves,
hoses, pumps). For a better product performance the
ambient room temperature must be between +2°C and
+35°C. Please note that operating in cold condition
(between +2 and +15°C) might imply some water
condensation and water drops on floor.

PREPARING THE LOAD
Before using the tumble dryer for the first time:
● Please read this instruction book thoroughly.
● Remove all items packed inside drum.
●Wipe the inside of the drum and door with a damp
cloth to remove any dust which may have settled in
transit.
Make sure that the laundry you are going to dry is
suitable for drying in a tumble dryer, as shown by the
care symbols on each item.
Check that all fastenings are closed and that
pockets are empty. Turn the articles inside out. Place
clothes loosely in the drum to make sure that they
don't get tangled.
Clothes Preparation
● Cottons Max. 9 kg
● Synthetics Max. 4 kg
Maximum Drying Weight
Sort the Load as Follows

.
● By care symbols
These can be found on the collar or inside seam:
Suitable for tumble drying.
Tumble drying at high temperature.
Tumble drying at low temperature only.
Do not tumble dry.
If the item does not have a care label it must be
assumed that it is not suitable for tumble drying.
● By amount and thickness
Whenever the load is bigger than the dryer
capacity, separate clothes according to
thickness (e.g. towels from thin underwear).
● By type of fabric
Cottons/linen: Towels, cotton jersey, bed and
table linen.
Synthetics: Blouses, shirts, overalls, etc. made
of polyester or polyamid, as well as for
cotton/synthetic mixes.
● By drying level

Do Not Tumble Dry:
IMPORTANT: Do not dry articles which
have been treated with a dry cleaning fluid or
rubber clothes (danger of fire or explosion).
Only put into the tumble dryer laundry which
has been thoroughly wrung or spin-dried. The
drier the laundry the shorter the drying time thus
saving electricity.
ALWAYS
● Try to dry the maximum weight of laundry, this
will save time and electricity.
● Check that the filter is clean before every
drying cycle.
NEVER
● Exceed the maximum weight, this will waste
time and electricity.
● Put dripping wet items into the tumble dryer,
this may damage the appliance.
Energy Saving
During the last 15 minutes (roughly) the
load is always tumbled in cool air
Do not overload the drum, large items when
wet can exceed the maximum admissible clothes
load (for example: sleeping bags, duvets).
