obstructed by a carpet.
•Connect the mains plug to the mains socket only at the end of
the installation. Make sure that there is access to the mains
plug after the installation.
•Ensure you have good ventilation in the installation room to
avoid the back flow of gases into the room from 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. (if
applicable)

INSTALLATION
UNPACKING
CAUTION! Before use all parts of the
transport packaging must be removed.
1 2 3
Open loading door.1
Pull off adhesive strips from inside machine on top of drum.2
Remove foil hose and polystyrene padding from the machine.3
VENT HOSE
As to the outlet itself, if you have
decided on a install wall/window grille,
a good local builder’s merchant can
supply you with the necessary fittings
and installation advice.
Make sure that the vent hose length is
less than 2 m, and that it contains no
more than 2 bends.
WARNING! It is important not to
connect the vent hose to, for example,
a cooker hood, or a chimney or flue
pipe designed to transmit the exhaust
from a fuel burning appliance.
Note that to prevent condensation problems, it is
essential that the dryer be installed with the flexible
hose to transmit its “exhaust” at least beyond the
kitchen units; preferable outside the kitchen. In
order to prevent the appliance from overheating, it
is important that the steam exhaust is unobstructed.
Thus, if a permanent hose installed to an external
wall or ceiling, it must be ensured an exhaust
capacity of minimum 150 m3/h. If the dryer is
installed adjacent to kitchen units, make sure that
the vent hose is not squashed. If the hose is not
fully squashed, drying efficiency will be decreased ,
5

resulting in longer drying times and higher energy
consumption. If the hose is fully squashed, the
automatic cut-outs with which the appliance is
fitted can operate. When operating the tumble
dryer, the room temperature must not be lower than
+5°C and higher than +35°C, as it can affect the
performance of the appliance.
If the hose is long and the room
temperature low, the moisture might
condense to water inside the hose.
This is an usual occurrence. To
prevent this water from the hose, it is
recommend to drill a small hole (via. 3
mm) in the lowest point of the hose
and to put a small container below it.
(See picture, point B).

There are 3 vent outlets: on the left,
right side and at the rear.

door can be reversed.
WARNING! The door must only be
reversed by an authorised service
engineer.
Please contact your Authorised Service Centre.
The engineer will carry out the door reversal at your
cost.
