load on it!
Ventilation hose and connection (for products equipped with
an outlet vent)
Ventilation hose allows exhaust air from inside
the machine
Vented dryer has 1 air outlet.
Stainless sheet metal or aluminum pipes can
be used instead of a hose. The pipe diameter
should be minimum 10 cm.
Maximum hose and pipe lengths are given in
the table below.
Hose Pipe
Maximum length
1 elbow 45°
1 elbow 90°
1 elbow 90° short
1 wall passage
4 m 5 m
-1.0 m -0.3 m
-1.8 m -0.6 m
-2.7 m
-2.0 m -2.0 m
CEach elbow and other passages should be
subtracted from the maximum length stated
above.
To connect a ventilation hose;
1. Connect the air outlet hose to the hose
spacer piece by turning it counterclockwise.
2. Make the hose passages as shown below.
CExhaust of humid air from the dryer into the
room is inconvenient. It may damage the
walls and furniture in the room.
CThe ventilation hose can be routed
outdoors via a window or it can be
connected to the air outlet in the bathroom.
CAir outlet hose must be routed directly
to the outdoors. There must be a limited
number of elbows as not to hinder
ventilation.
CTo prevent water accumulation in the hose,
make sure that it is not folded on the floor.
5 - EN
BThe ventilation hose should not be
connected to the chimney of a stove or a
fireplace.
BDo not operate your product at the same
time with heaters such as a coal or gas
stove. Airflow may cause the chimney to

water collected in the water tank.
Connecting the water drain hose:
1. Pull the hose out by its end to remove it
from the product. Do not use any tools to
remove the hose. Attach the drain hose
adaptor to the end of this hose.
2. Connect the special drain hose supplied
with the product to the hose adaptor fitting.
3. Connect the other end of the drain hose
directly to the wastewater drain or to the
washbasin. The fitting must always be
secured in every type of connection. Your
house may flood if the hose comes out of
its housing during water discharge.
CWhen you direct the water drain to outside,
“Water Tank” warning light will turn on at the
end of each programme.
Important:
• The hose should be attached to a height of
maximum 80 cm.
• Make sure that the hose is not pinched or
bend.
• The end of the hose should not be bent,
it should not be stepped on and it must
not be folded between the drain and the
product.
