1 Safety Precautions
• 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, ace-
tone, alcohol, petrol, 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 tex-
tiles, rubber backed articles and clothes or pillows fitted with foam rub-
ber 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 ex-
hausting 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.
• Servicing shall be carried out only by authorized personnel.
• Only authorized spare parts shall be used.
• When performing service or replacing parts, the power must be
disconnected.

6Installation manual
• When the power is disconnected, the operator must see that the ma-
chine is disconnected (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.
• The openings in the base, shall not be obstructed by a carpet.
• Maximum mass of dry cloth: 16.1 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 pressure and the adjustment of the appliance are
compatible.
• The machine is not to be installed in rooms containing cleaning ma-
chines with perchloroethylene, TRICHLOROETHYLENE or CHLOR-
OFLUOROCONTAINING HYDROCARBONS as cleaning agents.
• If you can smell gas:
– Do not switch on any equipment

16 Installation manual
6 Evacuation system
6.1 Air principle
The fan creates low pressure in the machine, drawing air into the drum via the heating unit.
The heated air passes through the garments and the drum holes.
The air then flows out through a lint filter positioned below the drum. Then the air is evacuated through the fan and
exhaust system.
Dimension for air evacuation (A) is 200 mm.
fig.W00264
Note!
It is very important that the machine gets enough fresh air in order to get the best drying result.

Installation manual 17
6.2 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 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.
fig.7183
Note!
Gratings/slatted covers often block half of the total fresh air vent area. Remember to take this into account.
6.3 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 of 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.

18 Installation manual
6.4 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.

The exhaust duct diameter must not be reduced.
6.5 Exhaust dimensioning
It is important that the machine has correct air volume compared to each machines power.
If the air flow is smaller or larger this will result in a longer drying period.
The machine is designed to work with the maximum static back pressure according to the table in the technical data
section.
The exhaust duct must be designed so the static back pressure measured 1 m from the exhaust outlet does not ex-
ceed the maximum allowable back pressure specified in Technical data.
If the outlet pipe is longer or the ventilation is not properly designed we recommend to clean the outlet pipes
periodically.
All cover panels must be mounted in order for the machine to work in the best way.

Installation manual 19
6.6 Adjusting the dryer
Adjusting the air flow may only be carried out by authorized personnel.
The dryer is pre-set for optimal air flow with up to 15 m equivalent pipe length. For longer pipes it is necessary to ad-
just the dryer according to the following instructions.
For default settings from factory, check the label attached on the damper.
Adjust the dryer by demounting the lower back panel and measure the pressure in the fan housing.
Demount the lower back panel.
Demount the heating sensor (NTC sensor) (A) and insert the measuring device. Make sure the connection is tight to
prevent air leakage.
Loosen the screws on the damper and open the damper (B) as much as possible.
fig.7525
Measure with a pressure measuring instrument (manometer) with an empty drum and with a program without heat.
By opening and closing the damper (B) the pressure at the heating sensor (NTC sensor) (A) is either lowered or
raised.
The optimum drying performances are achieved when the measured static pressure correspond to the value listed in
the following table.

20 Installation manual
Alternative measuring meathod
Adjusting the air flow may only be carried out by authorized personnel.
Use a home made U tube manometer, a hose (max ⌀10 mm), with water. Insert one end of the hose in the hole, hold
the hose according to the picture so that the water is in level.
Start the machine and measure the difference between the water in one of the hose ends with the other.
1 mm = 10 Pa.
fig.7528
When the dryer is adjusted remount the heating sensor (NTC sensor) (A) and lock the damper (B) in the new position
with the screws.
Remount the lower back panel.
