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: 12 kg.
• A-weighted emission sound pressure level at working stations: <68 dB(A).
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service
agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

3.4 Mechanical installation
Level the machine with the feet of the machine. The maximum height adjustment of the feet is 15 mm.
It is important to lock the feet with nuts (A).
For the gas dryer, the four feet should be locked with the expansion bolts and foot press plates in the accessory bag
to prevent straining of the gas supply when the appliance is moved, at least the two diagonal feet should be fixed.
See the top right Illustration. If the installation conditions are not suitable for the use of expansion bolts, it is also pos-
sible to use a rope to straighten the machine onto the fixed pile on the wall.

5 Evacuation system
5.1 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.
fig.W01615
Note!
It is very important that the machine gets enough fresh air in order to get the best drying result.
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 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.W01616
Note!
Gratings/slatted covers often block half of the total fresh air vent area. Remember to take this into account.

18 Installation manual
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 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.
fig.W01617
5.4 Shared exhaust duct
It is recommended that each machine is connected to a separate exhaust duct and fully inserts into the 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.
The multiple dryers must have separate backdraft dampers when connected through a shared exhaust duct.
If not, the load in the dryer will be affected by other dryers and become moist.
5.5 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.
If the outlet pipe is long or the ventilation is not properly designed we recommend to clean the outlet pipes periodi-
cally. The exhaust pipes shall be short in order for the machine to work in the best way.
Failure to install back draft dampers in shared dryer exhaust ducts can cause hazardous conditions such backflow
of combustible gases. Single or independent dryer venting is recommended. It is suggested that the use of 90° turns
be avoided; use 30° and/or 45° bends.
It is recommended that exhaust or booster fans not be used in the exhaust ductwork system. If an exhaust booster
fan is required, care must be taken to meet all other installation requirements.
The exhaust duct must be designed the static back pressure measured from the exhaust outlet connection does not
exceed the maximum allowable back pressure specified in Technical data.
Note!
1. The flue outlet of gas dryer shall be female and shall allow connection to a flue duct whose diameter com-
plies with the standards in force in the country where the appliance is to be installed.
2. When installing the exhaust duct of the gas dryer, keep a certain angle with the vertical wall so that any
condensate formed when operating the appliance from cold can be discharged.
3. The connection where the exhaust duct connects to the dryer should be sealed with steel clamp or duct
tape to prevent escaping the combustion products from the machine.
4. For gas dryer, vertical venting is prohibited.

20 Installation manual
5.6 Outside Ductwork Protection
To protect the outside end of the horizontal ductwork from the weather, a 90° elbow bent downward should be in-
stalled where the exhaust exits the building. If the ductwork travels vertically up through the roof, it should be pro-
tected from the weather by using a 180° turn to point the opening downward. In either case, allow at least twice the
diameter of the duct between the duct opening and the nearest obstruction.
Important
Do not use screens, louvers, or caps on the outside opening of the exhaust ductwork.
