WEEE contains both polluting substances (which
can cause negative consequences for the
environment) and basic components (which can
be re-used). It is important to have WEEE
subjected to specific treatments, in order to
remove and dispose properly all pollutants, and
recover and recycle all materials. Individuals can
play an important role in ensuring that WEEE
does not become an environmental issue; it is
essential to follow some basic rules:
lWEEE should not be treated as household
waste;
lWEEE should be handed over to the relevant
collection points managed by the municipality or
by registered companies. In many countries, for
large WEEE, home collection could be present.
In many countries, when you buy a new
appliance, the old one may be returned to the
retailer who has to collect it free of charge on a
one-to-one basis, as long as the equipment is of
equivalent type and has the same functions as
the supplied equipment.

allow the height of the dryer to
be adjusted from 827 mm to a
maximum of 847 mm. To adjust
the height, you should rotate
the adjustable feet, ensuring that
the machine is level (figure 1).
Note: we suggest to put the
dryer at the maximum height
possible in order to avoid
tilting, leaving at least 5 mm
from the top of the furniture.
lBefore fixing the hinges it’s
necessary to determine the
depth of the dryer from the
front part of the kitchen
according to the depth of the
kick plate (check picture) and
chose the right installation
option (figure 2).
Option 1
The position of the plinth of
the dryer is set back less
than 54 mm from the front of
the furniture.
lPosition the template onto the
reverse of the furniture door. It
is possible to mount the hinges
and closure magnet on the right
or left-hand side depending on
your requirements. Mark the
screw hole positions, then drill
out these positions (figure 3).

lA furniture plinth may be run
across the front of the dryer,
but its height will be dictated by
the front kickplate.
Plinth must have ventilation
slots (min. Side/diameter 127
mm hole) according to the
dimensions on fixing template.
If the plinth is not high enough
to accommodate the whole
hole, cut only part of it.
lPlace the template onto the
reverse of plinth. Mark the
screw hole positions, then drill
out these positions (figure 11).
lFix the plinth to the kickplate
using 6 screws provided (J).
Note: it’s possible only some
types of kickplate (eg. wood or
plastic). We suggest to check
