Asko T208VW Installation Manual
INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
DRYER PLACEMENT
The dryer can be either freestanding or installed on
top of a washing machine.
The dryer emits heat. Therefore, do not place it in
a very small room, as the drying process may be
longer due to limited amount of ambient air.
Do not place the dryer in a room where
temperature can drop below 0 °C, as the machine
may not operate correctly at such low temperatures
or may freeze, which can result in damage to the
machine.
For optimum dryer operation, install it in a room with
adequate ventilation and a temperature between
10 °C and 25 °C.
Do not place the dryer behind lockable or sliding
doors, or doors with a hinge on the opposite side of
the dryer door hinge. Install the dryer in such way
that the door can always be freely opened.
As this is an vented dryer, it does not have a
condensate tank. The handle has solely a decorative
purpose and is fi xed; it is not intended for opening. If
excessive force is applied, the handle may break.
Freestanding appliance
The dryer may be placed adjacent to a washing
machine.
If the friction between the dryer feet and the fl oor is not
suffi cient, the dryer may move during operation.
To prevent sliding, use a non-slide mat or install the
supplied vacuum feet onto both front feet.
Never block the air vents.
At least two persons are required to install the
tumble dryer on top of a washing machine.
Do not place the dryer on a carpet with long fi bres
as this may impede air circulation.
Place the dryer so that it is stable. Use a spirit
level to level the dryer horizontally and vertically
by rotating the adjustable feet using a No. 22
spanner (max. 15 mm). Then, fi rmly tighten the jam
nuts (counter nuts) by rotating them towards the
appliance bottom using a No. 17 spanner
.

Stacking on top of a washing machine
To stack the dryer on top of a washing machine, use
the extra vacuum feet and the tipping guard (A+B),
supplied in the cardboard box in the dryer drum.
Tipping guard part B is designed to fi t on ASKO
washing machines and it may be hard or impossible
to mount on appliances of other brands. If the
washing machine and dryer are not of matching
dimensions or if you have installed a hidden helper
between the two appliances, then binding plates are
available as optional accessories at the service unit
(available only for HH (accessory Hidden Helpers)
and TD75 stacked on top of WM80 or WM85; not
intended for any other combinations).
The appliance may not be in contact with a wall
or adjacent furniture. For optimum dryer operation,
observe the clearance from the wall as shown in the
fi gure.
