INSTALLATION
The tumble dryer is fully compatible with any 600mm deep kitchen units and
complies with stringent EEC regulations.
Your dryer is provided with a vent hose which will extend to approx 2.4m (8ft).
We strongly recommend that this is vented through the wall with the attachment
provided. The position of the hole (100mm diameter) for the vent directly behind
the tumble dryer is shown in the diagram.
If the through the wall vent is to be positioned other than behind the dryer, the
vent hose should be positioned at floor level and through adjacent side panel to a
relevant position. The plinth must be cut−out to accommodate the air vent grill at
the bottom front of the tumble dryer.
DO NOT use the tumble dryer if you suspect that it is
damaged in any way. Under no circumstances should you
attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried
out by inexperienced persons may cause serious injury.
Consult your local appointed service engineer and insist on

IMPORTANT
The air vent at the front of the appliance must never be covered or blocked in any
way as this will cause the dryer to overheat.
The dryer should not be placed directly next to ovens or cookers, as the
performance of the dryer may be affected.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS: We strongly recommend that any electrical work
is carried out by a qualified person complying with the IEE 17th addition of the
electrical regulations.
IMPORTANT
Please remember that the tumble dryer must be capable of being switched off,
(disconnected from the supply), when fitted in position.
THE FILTER
The filter is found, as seen from the diagram, by opening the door and must always
be in position when drying items in the appliance. To allow the dryer to operate
efficiently it should be cleaned after each drying cycle. Do not be alarmed by the
amount of fluff deposited on the mesh. It is not due to excessive wear caused by
the dryer but more an indication of it’s efficient operation.
All fabric loses fluff when drying but it goes unnoticed into the air. In a tumble dryer
it simply collects in the filter.
