Electrical Requirements
This dryer is supplied without an electric cord and plug. It must
be connected by a competent electrician to a single-phase
electricity supply at the voltage shown on the dataplate, using
a suitable fixed wiring installation in accordance with local and
national wiring regulations.
nA 3-wire cord of minimum conductor size 6 mm2cross-
section area should be used.
nA 45A supply fuse should be used, and a switch having
a contact separation in both poles that provides full
disconnection under over-voltage category III conditions must
be incorporated into the fixed wiring in accordance with local
wiring regulations. The dryer should be positioned so that the
disconnection switch is clearly visible and easily accessible to
the user. This disconnection switch also provides the function
of an emergency stop control for the user.
nA cord clamp bushing is provided on the dryer, and should
be tightened on completion of wiring. The electrical mains
terminals are located behind the small rear access panel
(terminal block cover), and connections should be made in
accordance with the terminal markings. Remember to replace
the terminal access panel (terminal block cover).
NOTE: In accordance with the European EMC Directive
(2004/108/EC), the maximum electricity supply system
impedance to which the electric dryer should be connected
is declared to be 0.012 Ohm + J0.007 Ohm.
NOTE: Electrical safety standards: The manufacturer has
chosen compliance with IEC/EN.60335 standards as the most
appropriate for this product.
If codes permit and an additional earth bond wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the earth
bond path is adequate.

Recommended Earthing Method
nIt is your responsibility to contact a qualified electrical installer
to ensure that the electrical installation is adequate and in
conformance with all local codes and ordinances.
Venting Requirements
WARNING
Fire Hazard
Use a heavy metal vent.
Do not use a plastic vent.
Do not use a metal foil vent.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death
or fire.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, this dryer MUST BE
EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS.
nFollowing these venting requirements will minimise ducting
air noise.
nAdequate ventilation has to be provided to avoid the backflow
of gases into the room from other fuel-burning appliances,
including open fires (i.e. available airflow into the room should
match airflow out from the room).
nThe design of the flue system should be such that any
condensate formed when operating the dryer from cold
shall either be retained and subsequently re-evaporated or
discharged. Following these instructions should adequately
meet this requirement.
nDryer exhaust must not be connected into any gas vent,
chimney, wall, ceiling, attic, crawlspace, or a concealed space
of a building. Only rigid or flexible metal vent shall be used for
exhausting.
nDo not use an exhaust hood with a magnetic latch.
nDo not install flexible metal vent in enclosed walls, ceilings,
or floors.
nOnly a 102 mm (4") heavy metal exhaust vent and clamps
may be used.
nUse clamps to seal all joints. Vent must not be connected or
secured with screws or other fastening devices which extend
into the interior of the vent and catch lint. Do not use duct
tape.
IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
Use a heavy metal vent. Do not use plastic or metal foil vent.
Rigid metal vent is recommended for best drying performance
and to avoid crushing and kinking.
Flexible metal vent must be fully extended and supported when
the dryer is in its final position. Remove excess flexible metal vent
to avoid sagging and kinking that will result in reduced airflow
and poor performance.
The total length of flexible metal vent should not exceed 2.4 m
(73⁄4ft.).
An exhaust hood should cap the vent to keep rodents and
insects from entering the building.
Exhaust hood must be at least 305 mm (12") from the ground
or any object that may be in the path of the exhaust (such as
flowers, rocks, bushes, or snow).
If using an existing vent system, clean lint from the entire length
of the system and make sure exhaust hood is not plugged with
lint. Replace any plastic or metal foil vent with rigid metal or
flexible metal vent.
Plan installation to use the fewest number of elbows and turns.
102 mm

Heavy metal
exhaust vent
Improper venting can cause moisture and lint to collect
indoors, which may result in:
Moisture damage to woodwork, furniture, paint, wallpaper,
carpets, etc.
Housecleaning problems and health problems.
AB
Exhaust Air Flow
A. Good
B. Better
Allow as much room as possible when using elbows or making
turns. Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking.
Vent outlet is located at the center of the bottom dryer back.
The vent can be routed up, down, left, right, behind the dryer,
or straight out the back of the dryer.

7
Vent System Length
Maximum length of vent system depends upon the type of vent
used, number of elbows, and type of exhaust hood.
If dryer is installed in a confined area, such as a bedroom,
bathroom, or closet, provision must be made for enough air
for combustion and ventilation. (Check governing codes and
ordinances.) See “Recessed Area Installation Instructions”
in the “Location requirements” section.
A 102 mm (4") outlet hood is preferred. However, a 64 mm
(2
1⁄2"
) outlet exhaust hood may be used. A 64 mm (2
1⁄2"
)
outlet creates greater back pressure than other hood types.
For permanent installation, a stationary vent system is required.
Multiple Dryer Venting
nA main vent can be used for venting a group of dryers. Main
vent should be sized to remove 5663 l/min (200 CFM) of air
per dryer. Large-capacity lint screens of proper design may
be used in the main vent if checked and cleaned frequently.
The room where the dryers are located should have make-up
air equal to or greater than the airflow of all the dryers in the
room.
nA back-draft damper kit is needed and is available from a
commercial laundry distributor; it should be installed in the
vent of each dryer to keep exhausted air from returning
into the dryers and to keep the exhaust in balance within
the main vent. Unobstructed return air openings are required.

Each vent should enter the main vent at an angle pointing in the
direction of the airflow. Vents entering from the opposite side
should be staggered to reduce the exhausted air from interfering
with the other vents.
The maximum angle of each vent entering the main vent should
be no more than 30°.
Keep air openings free of dry cleaning fluid fumes. Fumes create
acids which, when drawn through the dryer heating units, can
damage dryers and items being dried.
A clean-out cover should be located on the main vent for periodic
cleaning of the vent system.
If an exhaust hood cannot be used:
The outside end of the main vent should have a sweep elbow
directed downward. If the main vent travels vertically through the
roof, rather than through the wall, install a 180° sweep elbow on
the end of the vent at least 610 mm (2 ft.) above the highest part
of the building. The opening in wall or roof shall have a diameter
13 mm ( 1/2" ) larger than the vent diameter. The vent should be
centered in the opening.
Do not install screening or cap over the end of the vent.
