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 venthose 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
h adjacent side panel torelevant position. The plinth must be cut-out to
accommodate the air vent grill at the bottom front of the tumble dryer.
postitioned

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 its 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.
