1 Safety Precautions
• Servicing shall be carried out only by authorized personnel.
• Only authorized spare parts, accessories and consumables shall be used.
• The machine is not to be used if industrial chemicals have been used for cleaning.
• Do not dry unwashed items in the machine.
• Items that have been soiled with substances such as cooking oil, acetone, alcohol, pet-
rol, kerosene, spot removers, turpentine, waxes and wax removers should be washed
in hot water with an extra amount of detergent before being dried in the machine.
• Items such as foam rubber (latex foam), shower caps, waterproof textiles, rubber
backed articles and clothes or pillows fitted with foam rubber pads should not be dried
in the machine.
• Fabric softeners or similar products should be used as specified by the fabric softener
instructions.
• The final part of a drying cycle occurs without heat (cool down cycle) to ensure that the
items are left at a temperature that ensures that the items will not be damaged.
• Remove all objects from pockets such as lighters and matches.
• WARNING. Never stop the machine before the end of the drying cycle unless all items
are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.
• Adequate ventilation has to be provided to avoid the back flow of gases into the room
for appliances burning other fuels, including open fires.
• Exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used for exhausting fumes from
appliances burning gas or other fuels.
• The machine must not be installed behind a lockable door, a sliding door or a door with
a hinge on the opposite side to that of the machine in such a way that a full opening of
the machine is restricted.
• If the machine has a lint trap this has to be cleaned frequently.
• The lint must not be accumulated around the machine.
• DO NOT MODIFY THIS APPLIANCE.
• When performing service or replacing parts, the power must be disconnected.
• When the power is disconnected, the operator must see that the machine is discon-
nected (that the plug is removed and remains removed) from any point to which he has
access. If this is not possible, due to the construction or installation of the machine, a
disconnection with a locking system in the isolated position shall be provided.
• In accordance with the wiring rules: mount a multi-pole switch prior to the machine to
facilitate installation and service operations.
• WARNING: The appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device,
such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by a utility.
• If different rated voltages or different rated frequencies (separated by a /) are stated at
the machine data plate, instructions for adjusting the appliance for operation at the re-
quired rated voltage or rated frequency are stated in the installation manual.
• Stationary appliances not fitted with means for disconnection from the supply mains
having a contact separation in all poles that provide full disconnection under overvolt-
age category III, the instructions state that means for disconnection must be incorpo-
rated in the fixed wiring in accordance with the wiring rules.
• The openings in the base, shall not be obstructed by a carpet.

6Installation manual
• Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially when exposed to heat sources
such as in a tumble dryer. The items become warm, causing an oxidation reaction in
the oil. Oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot escape, the items can become hot
enough to catch fire. Piling, stacking or storing oil-affected items can prevent heat from
escaping and so create a fire hazard.
• If it is unavoidable that fabrics that contain vegetable or cooking oil or have been conta-
minated by hair care products be placed in a tumble dryer they should first be washed
in hot water with extra detergent – this will reduce, but not eliminate, the hazard.
• Maximum mass of dry cloth: T4900: 50 kg, T41200: 67 kg.
• A-weighted emission sound pressure level at working stations: < 70 dB(A).
Gas heated tumble dryer:
• Before installation, check that the local distribution conditions, nature of gas and pres-
sure and the adjustment of the appliance are compatible.
• The machine is not to be installed in rooms containing cleaning machines with per-
chloroethylene, TRICHLOROETHYLENE or CHLOROFLUOROCONTAINING HY-
DROCARBONS as cleaning agents.
• If you can smell gas:
– Do not switch on any equipment
– Do not use electrical switches
– Do not use telephones in the building
– Evacuate the room, building or area
– Contact the person responsible for the machine
• Additional requirements for the following countries; AT, BE, BG, HR, CY, CZ, DK, EE,
FI, FR, DE, GR, HU, IS, IE, IT, LV, LT, LU, MT, NL, NO, PL, PT, RO, SK, SI, ES, SE, CH,

– CAUTION: This appliance shall not be installed where the public has access.
• Additional requirements for other countries:
– This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.

Flexible piping connection, gas heated machines
Due to the tilting function gas pipe (A) must end 300 mm before the machine and the last piece of it must be flexible
eg. an approved 600 mm gas hose.
Flexible piping connection, steam heated machines
Due to the tilting function the steam hoses must have an excessive length of 300 mm.

5 Evacuation system
5.1 Air principle
The blower creates low pressure in the machine, drawing air into the cylinder via the heating unit.
The heated air passes through the garments and the cylinder vents.
The air then flows out through a lint filter positioned immediately below the drum. After this, the air is evacuated
through the blower and exhaust system.
Note!
It is very important that the machine gets enough fresh air in order to get the best drying result.
fig.W00143
5.2 Fresh air
For maximum efficiency and the shortest possible drying time, it is important to ensure that fresh air is able to enter
the room from the outside in the same volume as that is blown out of the room.
To avoid draught in the room it is important to place the air inlet behind the machine.
The area of the air inlet opening is recommended to be five times the size of the exhaust pipe area. The area of the
inlet opening is the area through which the air can flow without resistance from the grating/slatted cover.
5 x A
A
P
fig.W00144

20 Installation manual
The resistance in the grating/slats on the air inlet cover plate should not exceed 10 Pa (0.1 mbar).
Note!
Gratings/slatted covers often block half of the total fresh air vent area. Remember to take this into account.
5.3 Exhaust duct
• Only rigid or flexible metal duct should be used for exhausting.
• Plastic ducting is not to be used.
• Recommended material for exhaust is galvanized steel.
• The duct is not to be assembled with screws or other fastening means that extend into the duct and catch lint.
• The exhaust air should not be vented into a wall, a ceiling, or a concealed space of building.
• The exhaust duct must lead clear of the building as condensation may cause frost damage to the building.
• The exhaust duct must lead to the outdoors.
• The exhaust duct must be placed in such a way that it is protected on the outside.
• The exhaust duct must be smooth on the inside (low air resistance).
• The exhaust duct must have gentle bends.
5.4 Shared exhaust duct
It is recommended that each machine is connected to a separate exhaust duct.
When several machines shall use the same exhaust duct the exhaust duct must increase after each machine.
