INSTALLATION
ENGLISH 29
APPLIANCE POSITIONING
• The tumble dryer must be installed in
a clean position, where dirt does not
collect.
• Air must flow freely around the appli-
ance. Make sure that the front airflow
slots in the bottom of the appliance
are not blocked .
• To keep vibration and noise at the
minimum, when the tumble dryer operates, it must be put on a stable and
flat surface.
• When the appliance is put in its per-
manent position, check if is fully level
with the aid of a spirit level. If it is
not, adjust the feet until it is.
• Do not remove the feet. Do not de-
crease the floor clearance through
thick carpets, bar of wood or equivalent. This can increase the heat which
can cause interference with the operation of the appliance.
• The temperature of the hot
air which occurs in the tumble
dryer can increase to 60 °C.
The appliance must not be installed on the floor which is
not resistant to high temperatures.
• When the tumble dryer operates, the room temperature
must not be lower than +5 °C
and higher than +35 °C. This
can cause unwanted effect on
the performance of the appliance.
• If it is necessary to move the
appliance, it must be moved
vertically.
• The appliance must not be installed behind a lockable
door, a sliding door, a door
with a hinge on the opposite
side to that of the appliance
in such a way that a full opening of the tumble dryer is restricted.
It is possible to adjust the height of the
tumble dryer. To do that adjust the feet
(see picture).

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
• Connect the machine to an earthed
socket, in accordance with current
wiring regulations.

• Should the appliance power supply
cable need to be replaced, this must
be carried out by our Service Centre.
