be carried out by a qualifi ed person who is familiar with all local codes and ordinances for electrical and

INSTALLATION
WARNING - Risk of fi re.
Install the clothes dryer according to
the manufacturer's instructions and
local codes.
Clothes dryer installation must be
performed by a qualifi ed installer.
Do not install a clothes dryer with
fl exible plastic venting materials.
If fl exible metal (foil type) duct is
installed, it must be of a specifi c
type identifi ed by the applience
manufacturer that is UL approved
for use with clothes dryers. Flexible
venting materials are known to
collapse, be easily crushed, and trap
lint. These conditions will obstruct
clothes dryer airfl ow and increase the
risk of fi re.
To reduce the risk of of severe
injury or death, follow all installation
instructions.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR
FUTURE REFERENCE.
WARNING
For proper ventilation, the machine
should not be installed behind a door.
The tumble dryer's toe kick ventilation
must not be blocked by a rug or the
like.
DRYER PLACEMENT
The dryer can be either free standing or installed
onto 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 available 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 freeze, which in turn can result in damage to the
machine.
Install the dryer in a room with adequate ventilation
and a temperature between 10 °C and 25 °C.
Do not place the dryer behind lockable or sliding
door, or door 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 evacuation dryer, it does not have a
condensate tank. The handle has solely a decorative
purpose and it fi xed; it is not intended for opening. If
excessive force is applied, the handle may break.

opening).
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.
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 Fig.

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 the dryer from sliding around, use a nonslip support or pad.
